Fantasy Land Specification

Build Status

(aka "Algebraic JavaScript Specification")

This project specifies interoperability of common algebraic structures:

General

An algebra is a set of values, a set of operators that it is closed under and some laws it must obey.

Each Fantasy Land algebra is a separate specification. An algebra may have dependencies on other algebras which must be implemented.

Terminology

  1. "value" is any JavaScript value, including any which have the structures defined below.
  2. "equivalent" is an appropriate definition of equivalence for the given value. The definition should ensure that the two values can be safely swapped out in a program that respects abstractions. For example:
    • Two lists are equivalent if they are equivalent at all indices.
    • Two plain old JavaScript objects, interpreted as dictionaries, are equivalent when they are equivalent for all keys.
    • Two promises are equivalent when they yield equivalent values.
    • Two functions are equivalent if they yield equivalent outputs for equivalent inputs.

Type signature notation

The type signature notation used in this document is described below:1

  • :: "is a member of".
    • e :: t can be read as: "the expression e is a member of type t".
    • true :: Boolean - "true is a member of type Boolean".
    • 42 :: Integer, Number - "42 is a member of the Integer and Number types".
  • New types can be created via type constructors.
    • Type constructors can take zero or more type arguments.
    • Array is a type constructor which takes one type argument.
    • Array String is the type of all arrays of strings. Each of the following has type Array String: [], ['foo', 'bar', 'baz'].
    • Array (Array String) is the type of all arrays of arrays of strings. Each of the following has type Array (Array String): [], [ [], [] ], [ [], ['foo'], ['bar', 'baz'] ].
  • Lowercase letters stand for type variables.
    • Type variables can take any type unless they have been restricted by means of type constraints (see fat arrow below).
  • -> (arrow) Function type constructor.
    • -> is an infix type constructor that takes two type arguments where left argument is the input type and the right argument is the output type.
    • ->'s input type can be a grouping of types to create the type of a function which accepts zero or more arguments. The syntax is: (<input-types>) -> <output-type>, where <input-types> comprises zero or more comma–space (, )-separated type representations and parens may be omitted for unary functions.
    • String -> Array String is a type satisfied by functions which take a String and return an Array String.
    • String -> Array String -> Array String is a type satisfied by functions which take a String and return a function which takes an Array String and returns an Array String.
    • (String, Array String) -> Array String is a type satisfied by functions which take a String and an Array String as arguments and return an Array String.
    • () -> Number is a type satisfied by functions which do not take arguments and return a Number.
  • ~> (squiggly arrow) Method type constructor.
    • When a function is a property of an Object, it is called a method. All methods have an implicit parameter type - the type of which they are a property.
    • a ~> a -> a is a type satisfied by methods on Objects of type a which take a type a as an argument and return a value of type a.
  • => (fat arrow) Expresses constraints on type variables.
    • In a ~> a -> a (see squiggly arrow above), a can be of any type. Semigroup a => a ~> a -> a adds a constraint such that the type a must now satisfy the Semigroup typeclass. To satisfy a typeclass means to lawfully implement all functions/methods specified by that typeclass.

For example:

fantasy-land/traverse :: Applicative f, Traversable t => t a ~> (TypeRep f, a -> f b) -> f (t b)
'-------------------'    '--------------------------'    '-'    '-------------------'    '-----'
 '                        '                               '      '                        '
 '                        ' - type constraints            '      ' - argument types       ' - return type
 '                                                        '
 '- method name                                           ' - method target type

Type representatives

Certain behaviours are defined from the perspective of a member of a type. Other behaviours do not require a member. Thus certain algebras require a type to provide a value-level representative (with certain properties). The Identity type, for example, could provide Id as its type representative: Id :: TypeRep Identity.

If a type provides a type representative, each member of the type must have a constructor property which is a reference to the type representative.

    function map(f) { return this['fantasy-land/chain'](a => this.constructor['fantasy-land/of'](f(a))); }

  • fantasy-land/map may be derived from fantasy-land/bimap:

    function map(f) { return this['fantasy-land/bimap'](a => a, f); }

  • fantasy-land/map may be derived from fantasy-land/promap:

    function map(f) { return this['fantasy-land/promap'](a => a, f); }

  • fantasy-land/ap may be derived from fantasy-land/chain:

    function ap(m) { return m['fantasy-land/chain'](f => this['fantasy-land/map'](f)); }

  • fantasy-land/reduce may be derived as follows:

    function reduce(f, acc) {
  function Const(value) {
    this.value = value;
  }
  Const['fantasy-land/of'] = function(_) {
    return new Const(acc);
  };
  Const.prototype['fantasy-land/map'] = function(_) {
    return this;
  };
  Const.prototype['fantasy-land/ap'] = function(b) {
    return new Const(f(b.value, this.value));
  };
  return this['fantasy-land/traverse'](x => new Const(x), Const['fantasy-land/of']).value;
}

  • fantasy-land/map may be derived as follows:

    function map(f) {
  function Id(value) {
    this.value = value;
  }
  Id['fantasy-land/of'] = function(x) {
    return new Id(x);
  };
  Id.prototype['fantasy-land/map'] = function(f) {
    return new Id(f(this.value));
  };
  Id.prototype['fantasy-land/ap'] = function(b) {
    return new Id(this.value(b.value));
  };
  return this['fantasy-land/traverse'](x => Id['fantasy-land/of'](f(x)), Id['fantasy-land/of']).value;
}

  • fantasy-land/filter may be derived from fantasy-land/of, fantasy-land/chain, and fantasy-land/zero:

    function filter(pred) {
  var F = this.constructor;
  return this['fantasy-land/chain'](x => pred(x) ? F['fantasy-land/of'](x) : F['fantasy-land/zero']());
}

  • fantasy-land/filter may be derived from fantasy-land/concat, fantasy-land/of, fantasy-land/zero, and fantasy-land/reduce:

    function filter(pred) {
  var F = this.constructor;
  return this['fantasy-land/reduce']((f, x) => pred(x) ? f['fantasy-land/concat'](F['fantasy-land/of'](x)) : f, F['fantasy-land/zero']());
}

If a data type provides a method which could be derived, its behaviour must be equivalent to that of the derivation (or derivations).

Notes

  1. If there's more than a single way to implement the methods and laws, the implementation should choose one and provide wrappers for other uses.
  2. It's discouraged to overload the specified methods. It can easily result in broken and buggy behaviour.
  3. It is recommended to throw an exception on unspecified behaviour.
  4. An Identity container which implements many of the methods is provided by sanctuary-identity.

Alternatives

There also exists Static Land Specification with exactly the same ideas as Fantasy Land but based on static methods instead of instance methods.
