This package provides typeclasses for creating typed, generic folds over records.

As an example it also provides few utility functions:

  • applyTo applies record of functions to a value
  • collect collect record of Applicative to an Applicative containing record of values
  • length computes amount of fields in record
  • rMap maps type constructor over record
  • rShow transforms record with Show-able fields into Array (Tuple String String) (types are subject to change)

Defining new folds

In order to define a new fold, first define Stepper datatype which will be a proxy determining which instance of Step should be used by Fold. The Stepper must implement Step class. Please note that the result of step function must be a Category for Fold to work.
