TimedFuture

The TimedFuture effect is a thin shim on top of Scala’s Future. The only extra capability it has built-in is timeouts, which are supported by passing in a ScheduledExecutionContext. Note that because Future represents a computation already taking place, TimedFuture is a function that returns a Future. This means if you start a computation before passing the Future into Eff, the Future will begin less predictably.

Now, let’s create some TimedFuture effects:`> Some(1)`

You can also use other Future or Task effects:

• monix: depend on eff-monix and import org.atnos.eff.addon.monix.task._

There are corresponding syntax imports to be able to call runAsync methods in:

• monix: org.atnos.eff.syntax.addon.monix.task._

Future and Task computations can also be memoized to avoid expensive computations to be done several times. You can either

• use the futureMemo/taskMemo operator with a (mutable) cache
• use the futureMemoized/taskMemoized operator with the Memoized effect (you will need to provide the cache later)
