Effect.ignore

Discards both the success and failure values of an effect.

When to Use

ignore allows you to run an effect without caring about its result, whether it succeeds or fails. This is useful when you only care about the side effects of the effect and do not need to handle or process its outcome.

Example (Using Effect.ignore to Discard Values)

import { Effect } from "effect"

//      ┌─── Effect<number, string, never>
//      ▼
const task = Effect.fail("Uh oh!").pipe(Effect.as(5))

//      ┌─── Effect<void, never, never>
//      ▼
const program = Effect.ignore(task)

See

• ignoreLogged to log failures while ignoring them.

Signature

declare const ignore: <A, E, R>(self: Effect<A, E, R>) => Effect<void, never, R>
