Package: effect
Module: Option

Option.getOrNull

Extracts the value from a Some, or returns null for None.

When to use

Use when you need to pass absent Option values to APIs that expect null.

Details

• Some → the inner value
• None → null

Example (Unwrapping to null)

import { Option } from "effect"

console.log(Option.getOrNull(Option.some(1)))
// Output: 1

console.log(Option.getOrNull(Option.none()))
// Output: null

See

• getOrUndefined to return undefined instead
• getOrElse for a custom fallback

Signature

declare const getOrNull: <A>(self: Option<A>) => A | null
