fp-ts Backend Patterns

Functional programming patterns for building type-safe, testable backend services using fp-ts.

Core Concepts

ReaderTaskEither (RTE)

The ReaderTaskEither<R, E, A> type is the backbone of functional backend development:

  • R (Reader): Dependencies/environment (database, config, logger)

  • E (Either left): Error type

  • A (Either right): Success value

import * as RTE from 'fp-ts/ReaderTaskEither' import * as TE from 'fp-ts/TaskEither' import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'

// Define your dependencies type Deps = { db: DatabaseClient logger: Logger config: Config }

// Define domain errors type AppError = | { _tag: 'NotFound'; resource: string; id: string } | { _tag: 'ValidationError'; message: string } | { _tag: 'DatabaseError'; cause: unknown } | { _tag: 'Unauthorized'; reason: string }

// A service function const getUser = (id: string): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<Deps, AppError, User> => pipe( RTE.ask<Deps>(), RTE.flatMap(({ db, logger }) => pipe( RTE.fromTaskEither(db.users.findById(id)), RTE.mapLeft((e): AppError => ({ _tag: 'DatabaseError', cause: e })), RTE.flatMap(user => user ? RTE.right(user) : RTE.left({ _tag: 'NotFound', resource: 'User', id }) ), RTE.tap(user => RTE.fromIO(() => logger.info(Found user: ${user.id}))) ) ) )

Service Layer Patterns

Defining Service Modules

Structure services as modules exporting RTE functions:

// src/services/user.service.ts import * as RTE from 'fp-ts/ReaderTaskEither' import * as TE from 'fp-ts/TaskEither' import * as A from 'fp-ts/Array' import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'

type UserDeps = { db: DatabaseClient hasher: PasswordHasher mailer: EmailService }

type UserError = | { _tag: 'UserNotFound'; id: string } | { _tag: 'EmailExists'; email: string } | { _tag: 'InvalidPassword' }

// Create user export const create = ( input: CreateUserInput ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<UserDeps, UserError, User> => pipe( RTE.ask<UserDeps>(), RTE.flatMap(({ db, hasher }) => pipe( // Check email uniqueness checkEmailUnique(input.email), RTE.flatMap(() => RTE.fromTaskEither(hasher.hash(input.password)) ), RTE.flatMap(hashedPassword => RTE.fromTaskEither( db.users.create({ ...input, password: hashedPassword, }) ) ) ) ) )

// Find by ID export const findById = ( id: string ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<UserDeps, UserError, User> => pipe( RTE.ask<UserDeps>(), RTE.flatMap(({ db }) => pipe( RTE.fromTaskEither(db.users.findUnique({ where: { id } })), RTE.flatMap(user => user ? RTE.right(user) : RTE.left({ _tag: 'UserNotFound' as const, id }) ) ) ) )

// Find many with pagination export const findMany = ( params: PaginationParams ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<UserDeps, UserError, PaginatedResult<User>> => pipe( RTE.ask<UserDeps>(), RTE.flatMap(({ db }) => RTE.fromTaskEither( pipe( TE.Do, TE.bind('users', () => db.users.findMany({ skip: params.offset, take: params.limit, })), TE.bind('total', () => db.users.count()), TE.map(({ users, total }) => ({ data: users, total, ...params, })) ) ) ) )

const checkEmailUnique = ( email: string ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<UserDeps, UserError, void> => pipe( RTE.ask<UserDeps>(), RTE.flatMap(({ db }) => pipe( RTE.fromTaskEither(db.users.findUnique({ where: { email } })), RTE.flatMap(existing => existing ? RTE.left({ _tag: 'EmailExists' as const, email }) : RTE.right(undefined) ) ) ) )

Composing Services

// src/services/order.service.ts import * as UserService from './user.service' import * as ProductService from './product.service' import * as PaymentService from './payment.service'

type OrderDeps = UserService.UserDeps & ProductService.ProductDeps & PaymentService.PaymentDeps & { db: DatabaseClient }

export const createOrder = ( userId: string, items: OrderItem[] ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<OrderDeps, OrderError, Order> => pipe( RTE.Do, // Validate user exists RTE.bind('user', () => pipe( UserService.findById(userId), RTE.mapLeft(toOrderError) ) ), // Validate and get products RTE.bind('products', () => pipe( items, A.traverse(RTE.ApplicativePar)(item => ProductService.findById(item.productId) ), RTE.mapLeft(toOrderError) ) ), // Calculate total RTE.bind('total', ({ products }) => RTE.right(calculateTotal(products, items)) ), // Process payment RTE.bind('payment', ({ user, total }) => pipe( PaymentService.charge(user, total), RTE.mapLeft(toOrderError) ) ), // Create order RTE.flatMap(({ user, products, total, payment }) => createOrderRecord(user, products, items, total, payment) ) )

Functional Dependency Injection

Building the Dependency Container

// src/deps.ts import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function' import * as TE from 'fp-ts/TaskEither' import * as RTE from 'fp-ts/ReaderTaskEither'

// Layer 0: Config (no dependencies) type Config = { database: { url: string; poolSize: number } redis: { url: string } jwt: { secret: string; expiresIn: string } }

const loadConfig = (): TE.TaskEither<Error, Config> => TE.tryCatch( async () => ({ database: { url: process.env.DATABASE_URL!, poolSize: parseInt(process.env.DB_POOL_SIZE || '10'), }, redis: { url: process.env.REDIS_URL! }, jwt: { secret: process.env.JWT_SECRET!, expiresIn: process.env.JWT_EXPIRES || '1d', }, }), (e) => new Error(Config error: ${e}) )

// Layer 1: Infrastructure (depends on config) type Infrastructure = { config: Config db: PrismaClient redis: RedisClient logger: Logger }

const buildInfrastructure = ( config: Config ): TE.TaskEither<Error, Infrastructure> => pipe( TE.Do, TE.bind('db', () => TE.tryCatch( async () => { const prisma = new PrismaClient({ datasources: { db: { url: config.database.url } }, }) await prisma.$connect() return prisma }, (e) => new Error(Database error: ${e}) ) ), TE.bind('redis', () => TE.tryCatch( async () => createRedisClient(config.redis.url), (e) => new Error(Redis error: ${e}) ) ), TE.bind('logger', () => TE.right(createLogger())), TE.map(({ db, redis, logger }) => ({ config, db, redis, logger, })) )

// Layer 2: Services (depends on infrastructure) type Services = { hasher: PasswordHasher jwt: JwtService mailer: EmailService }

const buildServices = (infra: Infrastructure): Services => ({ hasher: createBcryptHasher(), jwt: createJwtService(infra.config.jwt), mailer: createEmailService(infra.config), })

// Full application dependencies export type AppDeps = Infrastructure & Services

export const buildDeps = (): TE.TaskEither<Error, AppDeps> => pipe( loadConfig(), TE.flatMap(buildInfrastructure), TE.map(infra => ({ ...infra, ...buildServices(infra), })) )

// Cleanup export const destroyDeps = (deps: AppDeps): TE.TaskEither<Error, void> => pipe( TE.tryCatch( async () => { await deps.db.$disconnect() await deps.redis.quit() }, (e) => new Error(Cleanup error: ${e}) ) )

Running Programs with Dependencies

// src/main.ts import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function' import * as TE from 'fp-ts/TaskEither' import * as RTE from 'fp-ts/ReaderTaskEither'

const program: RTE.ReaderTaskEither<AppDeps, AppError, void> = pipe( RTE.ask<AppDeps>(), RTE.flatMap(deps => pipe( startServer(deps), RTE.fromTaskEither ) ) )

const main = async () => { const result = await pipe( buildDeps(), TE.mapLeft((e): AppError => ({ _tag: 'StartupError', cause: e })), TE.flatMap(deps => pipe( program(deps), TE.tap(() => TE.fromIO(() => console.log('Server running'))), // Cleanup on exit TE.tapError(() => destroyDeps(deps)) ) ) )()

if (result._tag === 'Left') { console.error('Failed to start:', result.left) process.exit(1) } }

main()

Database Operations

Prisma Wrappers

// src/lib/db.ts import * as TE from 'fp-ts/TaskEither' import * as O from 'fp-ts/Option' import { PrismaClient, Prisma } from '@prisma/client'

type DbError = | { _tag: 'RecordNotFound'; model: string; id: string } | { _tag: 'UniqueViolation'; field: string } | { _tag: 'ForeignKeyViolation'; field: string } | { _tag: 'UnknownDbError'; cause: unknown }

// Wrap Prisma operations const wrapPrisma = <A>( operation: () => Promise<A> ): TE.TaskEither<DbError, A> => TE.tryCatch(operation, (error): DbError => { if (error instanceof Prisma.PrismaClientKnownRequestError) { switch (error.code) { case 'P2002': return { _tag: 'UniqueViolation', field: (error.meta?.target as string[])?.join(', ') || 'unknown', } case 'P2003': return { _tag: 'ForeignKeyViolation', field: error.meta?.field_name as string || 'unknown', } case 'P2025': return { _tag: 'RecordNotFound', model: error.meta?.modelName as string || 'unknown', id: 'unknown', } } } return { _tag: 'UnknownDbError', cause: error } })

// Repository factory export const createRepository = < Model, CreateInput, UpdateInput, WhereUnique, WhereMany

( db: PrismaClient, delegate: { findUnique: (args: { where: WhereUnique }) => Promise<Model | null> findMany: (args: { where?: WhereMany; skip?: number; take?: number }) => Promise<Model[]> create: (args: { data: CreateInput }) => Promise<Model> update: (args: { where: WhereUnique; data: UpdateInput }) => Promise<Model> delete: (args: { where: WhereUnique }) => Promise<Model> count: (args?: { where?: WhereMany }) => Promise<number> } ) => ({ findUnique: (where: WhereUnique): TE.TaskEither<DbError, O.Option<Model>> => pipe( wrapPrisma(() => delegate.findUnique({ where })), TE.map(O.fromNullable) ),

findMany: ( where?: WhereMany, pagination?: { skip: number; take: number } ): TE.TaskEither<DbError, Model[]> => wrapPrisma(() => delegate.findMany({ where, ...pagination })),

create: (data: CreateInput): TE.TaskEither<DbError, Model> => wrapPrisma(() => delegate.create({ data })),

update: ( where: WhereUnique, data: UpdateInput ): TE.TaskEither<DbError, Model> => wrapPrisma(() => delegate.update({ where, data })),

delete: (where: WhereUnique): TE.TaskEither<DbError, Model> => wrapPrisma(() => delegate.delete({ where })),

count: (where?: WhereMany): TE.TaskEither<DbError, number> => wrapPrisma(() => delegate.count({ where })), })

// Usage const userRepo = createRepository(prisma, prisma.user)

Transaction Handling

// src/lib/transaction.ts import * as TE from 'fp-ts/TaskEither' import * as RTE from 'fp-ts/ReaderTaskEither' import { PrismaClient } from '@prisma/client' import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'

type TxClient = Omit< PrismaClient, '$connect' | '$disconnect' | '$on' | '$transaction' | '$use'

type TxDeps = { tx: TxClient }

// Transaction wrapper export const withTransaction = <R extends { db: PrismaClient }, E, A>( program: RTE.ReaderTaskEither<R & TxDeps, E, A> ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<R, E | DbError, A> => pipe( RTE.ask<R>(), RTE.flatMap(deps => RTE.fromTaskEither( TE.tryCatch( () => deps.db.$transaction(async tx => { const result = await program({ ...deps, tx })() if (result._tag === 'Left') { throw result.left // Rollback } return result.right }), (error): E | DbError => { // Re-throw domain errors if (typeof error === 'object' && error !== null && '_tag' in error) { return error as E } return { _tag: 'UnknownDbError', cause: error } } ) ) ) )

// Usage in service export const transferFunds = ( fromId: string, toId: string, amount: number ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<AppDeps, TransferError, Transfer> => withTransaction( pipe( RTE.Do, RTE.bind('from', () => debitAccount(fromId, amount)), RTE.bind('to', () => creditAccount(toId, amount)), RTE.bind('transfer', ({ from, to }) => createTransferRecord(from, to, amount) ), RTE.map(({ transfer }) => transfer) ) )

// Inside transaction, use tx instead of db const debitAccount = ( accountId: string, amount: number ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<TxDeps, TransferError, Account> => pipe( RTE.ask<TxDeps>(), RTE.flatMap(({ tx }) => RTE.fromTaskEither( pipe( TE.tryCatch( () => tx.account.update({ where: { id: accountId }, data: { balance: { decrement: amount } }, }), toDbError ), TE.flatMap(account => account.balance < 0 ? TE.left({ _tag: 'InsufficientFunds' as const, accountId }) : TE.right(account) ) ) ) ) )

Middleware Patterns

Express Middleware

// src/middleware/fp-express.ts import { Request, Response, NextFunction, RequestHandler } from 'express' import * as TE from 'fp-ts/TaskEither' import * as RTE from 'fp-ts/ReaderTaskEither' import * as E from 'fp-ts/Either' import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'

// Convert RTE handler to Express middleware export const toHandler = <R, E, A>( getDeps: (req: Request) => R, handler: (req: Request) => RTE.ReaderTaskEither<R, E, A>, onError: (error: E, res: Response) => void ): RequestHandler => async (req, res, next) => { const deps = getDeps(req) const result = await handler(req)(deps)()

pipe(
  result,
  E.fold(
    error => onError(error, res),
    data => res.json(data)
  )
)

}

// Error handler const handleError = (error: AppError, res: Response): void => { switch (error._tag) { case 'NotFound': res.status(404).json({ error: error.resource + ' not found' }) break case 'ValidationError': res.status(400).json({ error: error.message }) break case 'Unauthorized': res.status(401).json({ error: error.reason }) break default: res.status(500).json({ error: 'Internal server error' }) } }

// Usage const getUserHandler = toHandler( req => req.app.locals.deps as AppDeps, req => UserService.findById(req.params.id), handleError )

app.get('/users/:id', getUserHandler)

Hono Middleware

// src/middleware/fp-hono.ts import { Hono, Context, MiddlewareHandler } from 'hono' import * as RTE from 'fp-ts/ReaderTaskEither' import * as E from 'fp-ts/Either' import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'

// Store deps in context declare module 'hono' { interface ContextVariableMap { deps: AppDeps } }

// Dependency injection middleware export const withDeps = (deps: AppDeps): MiddlewareHandler => async (c, next) => { c.set('deps', deps) await next() }

// Convert RTE to Hono handler export const toHonoHandler = <E, A>( handler: (c: Context) => RTE.ReaderTaskEither<AppDeps, E, A>, onError: (error: E, c: Context) => Response ) => async (c: Context): Promise<Response> => { const deps = c.get('deps') const result = await handler(c)(deps)()

return pipe(
  result,
  E.fold(
    error => onError(error, c),
    data => c.json(data)
  )
)

}

// Validation middleware export const validate = <T>(schema: z.ZodSchema<T>): MiddlewareHandler => async (c, next) => { const body = await c.req.json() const result = schema.safeParse(body)

if (!result.success) {
  return c.json(
    { error: 'Validation failed', details: result.error.flatten() },
    400
  )
}

c.set('validatedBody', result.data)
await next()

}

// Auth middleware using RTE export const requireAuth: MiddlewareHandler = async (c, next) => { const deps = c.get('deps') const token = c.req.header('Authorization')?.replace('Bearer ', '')

if (!token) { return c.json({ error: 'No token provided' }, 401) }

const result = await pipe( deps.jwt.verify(token), TE.mapLeft(() => ({ _tag: 'Unauthorized' as const, reason: 'Invalid token' })) )()

if (E.isLeft(result)) { return c.json({ error: result.left.reason }, 401) }

c.set('user', result.right) await next() }

// Usage const app = new Hono()

app.use('', withDeps(deps)) app.use('/api/', requireAuth)

app.get( '/api/users/:id', toHonoHandler( c => UserService.findById(c.req.param('id')), (error, c) => { if (error._tag === 'UserNotFound') { return c.json({ error: 'User not found' }, 404) } return c.json({ error: 'Internal error' }, 500) } ) )

Request Context Pattern

// src/context.ts import * as RTE from 'fp-ts/ReaderTaskEither' import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'

// Request-scoped context type RequestContext = { requestId: string userId: O.Option<string> startTime: number }

type ContextDeps = AppDeps & { ctx: RequestContext }

// Logging with context const logWithContext = (level: 'info' | 'warn' | 'error') => (message: string, meta?: object): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<ContextDeps, never, void> => pipe( RTE.ask<ContextDeps>(), RTE.flatMap(({ logger, ctx }) => RTE.fromIO(() => logger[level](message, { ...meta, requestId: ctx.requestId, userId: O.toUndefined(ctx.userId), elapsed: Date.now() - ctx.startTime, }) ) ) )

export const log = { info: logWithContext('info'), warn: logWithContext('warn'), error: logWithContext('error'), }

// Middleware to create context export const withContext: MiddlewareHandler = async (c, next) => { const deps = c.get('deps') const ctx: RequestContext = { requestId: crypto.randomUUID(), userId: O.fromNullable(c.get('user')?.id), startTime: Date.now(), }

c.set('deps', { ...deps, ctx })

// Log request start deps.logger.info('Request started', { requestId: ctx.requestId, method: c.req.method, path: c.req.path, })

await next()

// Log request end deps.logger.info('Request completed', { requestId: ctx.requestId, status: c.res.status, elapsed: Date.now() - ctx.startTime, }) }

Error Handling Patterns

Typed Error Hierarchy

// src/errors.ts import * as E from 'fp-ts/Either' import * as O from 'fp-ts/Option'

// Base error types type DomainError = | NotFoundError | ValidationError | ConflictError | AuthError | InfrastructureError

type NotFoundError = { _tag: 'NotFoundError' resource: string id: string }

type ValidationError = { _tag: 'ValidationError' field: string message: string value?: unknown }

type ConflictError = { _tag: 'ConflictError' resource: string field: string value: string }

type AuthError = | { _tag: 'Unauthenticated' } | { _tag: 'Unauthorized'; required: string } | { _tag: 'TokenExpired' }

type InfrastructureError = { _tag: 'InfrastructureError' service: string cause: unknown }

// Smart constructors export const notFound = (resource: string, id: string): NotFoundError => ({ _tag: 'NotFoundError', resource, id, })

export const validation = ( field: string, message: string, value?: unknown ): ValidationError => ({ _tag: 'ValidationError', field, message, value, })

export const conflict = ( resource: string, field: string, value: string ): ConflictError => ({ _tag: 'ConflictError', resource, field, value, })

// Error to HTTP status mapping export const toHttpStatus = (error: DomainError): number => { switch (error._tag) { case 'NotFoundError': return 404 case 'ValidationError': return 400 case 'ConflictError': return 409 case 'Unauthenticated': return 401 case 'Unauthorized': return 403 case 'TokenExpired': return 401 case 'InfrastructureError': return 503 default: return 500 } }

// Error to response body export const toResponseBody = ( error: DomainError ): { error: string; details?: unknown } => { switch (error._tag) { case 'NotFoundError': return { error: ${error.resource} not found } case 'ValidationError': return { error: 'Validation failed', details: { field: error.field, message: error.message }, } case 'ConflictError': return { error: ${error.resource} with ${error.field} already exists, } case 'Unauthenticated': return { error: 'Authentication required' } case 'Unauthorized': return { error: Permission denied: ${error.required} } case 'TokenExpired': return { error: 'Token expired' } case 'InfrastructureError': return { error: 'Service temporarily unavailable' } } }

Error Recovery

// src/lib/recovery.ts import * as RTE from 'fp-ts/ReaderTaskEither' import * as TE from 'fp-ts/TaskEither' import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'

// Retry with exponential backoff export const withRetry = <R, E, A>( maxAttempts: number, baseDelayMs: number, shouldRetry: (error: E) => boolean ) => ( operation: RTE.ReaderTaskEither<R, E, A> ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<R, E, A> => pipe( RTE.ask<R>(), RTE.flatMap(deps => { const attempt = ( remaining: number, delay: number ): TE.TaskEither<E, A> => pipe( operation(deps), TE.orElse(error => { if (remaining <= 0 || !shouldRetry(error)) { return TE.left(error) } return pipe( TE.fromTask(() => new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, delay))), TE.flatMap(() => attempt(remaining - 1, delay * 2)) ) }) )

    return RTE.fromTaskEither(attempt(maxAttempts - 1, baseDelayMs))
  })
)

// Fallback to cached value export const withFallback = <R extends { cache: CacheClient }, E, A>( cacheKey: string, ttlSeconds: number ) => ( operation: RTE.ReaderTaskEither<R, E, A> ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<R, E, A> => pipe( RTE.ask<R>(), RTE.flatMap(({ cache, ...rest }) => pipe( operation, // On success, cache the result RTE.tap(result => RTE.fromTaskEither(cache.set(cacheKey, result, ttlSeconds)) ), // On failure, try to get cached value RTE.orElse(error => pipe( RTE.fromTaskEither(cache.get<A>(cacheKey)), RTE.flatMap(cached => cached ? RTE.right(cached) : RTE.left(error) ) ) ) ) ) )

// Circuit breaker type CircuitState = 'closed' | 'open' | 'half-open'

export const createCircuitBreaker = <E>( failureThreshold: number, resetTimeoutMs: number, isFailure: (error: E) => boolean ) => { let state: CircuitState = 'closed' let failures = 0 let lastFailure = 0

return <R, A>( operation: RTE.ReaderTaskEither<R, E, A> ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<R, E | { _tag: 'CircuitOpen' }, A> => pipe( RTE.ask<R>(), RTE.flatMap(deps => { // Check if circuit should reset if ( state === 'open' && Date.now() - lastFailure > resetTimeoutMs ) { state = 'half-open' }

    if (state === 'open') {
      return RTE.left({ _tag: 'CircuitOpen' as const })
    }

    return pipe(
      operation,
      RTE.tap(() => {
        if (state === 'half-open') {
          state = 'closed'
          failures = 0
        }
        return RTE.right(undefined)
      }),
      RTE.tapError(error => {
        if (isFailure(error)) {
          failures++
          lastFailure = Date.now()
          if (failures >= failureThreshold) {
            state = 'open'
          }
        }
        return RTE.right(undefined)
      })
    )
  })
)

}

Testing Strategies

Mocking Dependencies

// src/services/tests/user.service.test.ts import * as TE from 'fp-ts/TaskEither' import * as E from 'fp-ts/Either' import * as O from 'fp-ts/Option' import { describe, it, expect, vi } from 'vitest' import * as UserService from '../user.service'

// Create mock dependencies const createMockDeps = (overrides: Partial<UserDeps> = {}): UserDeps => ({ db: { users: { findUnique: vi.fn(() => Promise.resolve(null)), create: vi.fn(data => Promise.resolve({ id: '1', ...data })), update: vi.fn((where, data) => Promise.resolve({ id: where.id, ...data })), }, }, hasher: { hash: vi.fn(password => TE.right(hashed_${password})), verify: vi.fn(() => TE.right(true)), }, mailer: { send: vi.fn(() => TE.right(undefined)), }, ...overrides, })

describe('UserService', () => { describe('create', () => { it('should create a user with hashed password', async () => { const deps = createMockDeps() const input = { email: 'test@example.com', password: 'secret123', name: 'Test User', }

  const result = await UserService.create(input)(deps)()

  expect(E.isRight(result)).toBe(true)
  if (E.isRight(result)) {
    expect(result.right.email).toBe(input.email)
  }
  expect(deps.hasher.hash).toHaveBeenCalledWith('secret123')
})

it('should fail when email already exists', async () => {
  const existingUser = { id: '1', email: 'test@example.com' }
  const deps = createMockDeps({
    db: {
      users: {
        findUnique: vi.fn(() => Promise.resolve(existingUser)),
        create: vi.fn(),
      },
    },
  })

  const result = await UserService.create({
    email: 'test@example.com',
    password: 'secret',
    name: 'Test',
  })(deps)()

  expect(E.isLeft(result)).toBe(true)
  if (E.isLeft(result)) {
    expect(result.left._tag).toBe('EmailExists')
  }
})

})

describe('findById', () => { it('should return user when found', async () => { const user = { id: '1', email: 'test@example.com', name: 'Test' } const deps = createMockDeps({ db: { users: { findUnique: vi.fn(() => Promise.resolve(user)), }, }, })

  const result = await UserService.findById('1')(deps)()

  expect(E.isRight(result)).toBe(true)
  if (E.isRight(result)) {
    expect(result.right).toEqual(user)
  }
})

it('should return NotFound when user does not exist', async () => {
  const deps = createMockDeps()

  const result = await UserService.findById('nonexistent')(deps)()

  expect(E.isLeft(result)).toBe(true)
  if (E.isLeft(result)) {
    expect(result.left._tag).toBe('UserNotFound')
    expect(result.left.id).toBe('nonexistent')
  }
})

}) })

Integration Testing with Test Containers

// src/tests/integration/user.integration.test.ts import { PostgreSqlContainer } from '@testcontainers/postgresql' import { PrismaClient } from '@prisma/client' import * as TE from 'fp-ts/TaskEither' import * as E from 'fp-ts/Either' import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function' import { describe, it, expect, beforeAll, afterAll } from 'vitest' import { buildDeps, destroyDeps, AppDeps } from '../../deps' import * as UserService from '../../services/user.service'

describe('UserService Integration', () => { let container: PostgreSqlContainer let deps: AppDeps

beforeAll(async () => { // Start PostgreSQL container container = await new PostgreSqlContainer().start()

// Build real dependencies with test database
process.env.DATABASE_URL = container.getConnectionUri()

const depsResult = await buildDeps()()
if (E.isLeft(depsResult)) {
  throw new Error(`Failed to build deps: ${depsResult.left}`)
}
deps = depsResult.right

// Run migrations
await deps.db.$executeRaw`CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS "uuid-ossp"`
// ... run Prisma migrations

}, 60000)

afterAll(async () => { await destroyDeps(deps)() await container.stop() })

it('should create and retrieve a user', async () => { // Create user const createResult = await UserService.create({ email: 'integration@test.com', password: 'password123', name: 'Integration Test', })(deps)()

expect(E.isRight(createResult)).toBe(true)
if (E.isLeft(createResult)) return

const user = createResult.right

// Retrieve user
const findResult = await UserService.findById(user.id)(deps)()

expect(E.isRight(findResult)).toBe(true)
if (E.isRight(findResult)) {
  expect(findResult.right.email).toBe('integration@test.com')
}

}) })

Property-Based Testing

// src/tests/property/user.property.test.ts import * as fc from 'fast-check' import * as E from 'fp-ts/Either' import { describe, it, expect } from 'vitest' import { validateEmail, validatePassword } from '../../validation'

describe('Validation Properties', () => { it('valid emails should pass validation', () => { fc.assert( fc.property(fc.emailAddress(), email => { const result = validateEmail(email) return E.isRight(result) }) ) })

it('passwords meeting requirements should pass', () => { const validPassword = fc .tuple( fc.stringOf(fc.constantFrom(...'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'), { minLength: 4, }), fc.stringOf(fc.constantFrom(...'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'), { minLength: 1, }), fc.stringOf(fc.constantFrom(...'0123456789'), { minLength: 1 }), fc.stringOf(fc.constantFrom(...'!@#$%^&*'), { minLength: 1 }) ) .map(parts => parts.join(''))

fc.assert(
  fc.property(validPassword, password => {
    const result = validatePassword(password)
    return E.isRight(result)
  })

Service Template

// Template for a new service import * as RTE from 'fp-ts/ReaderTaskEither' import { pipe } from 'fp-ts/function'

type MyServiceDeps = { db: DatabaseClient // ... other dependencies }

type MyServiceError = | { _tag: 'NotFound'; id: string } | { _tag: 'ValidationFailed'; reason: string }

export const myOperation = ( input: Input ): RTE.ReaderTaskEither<MyServiceDeps, MyServiceError, Output> => pipe( RTE.ask<MyServiceDeps>(), RTE.flatMap(deps => // Your implementation here RTE.right(output) ) )
