Pinto.Monitor

monitor :: forall msg process m. HasPid process => MonadEffect m => HasSelf m msg => process -> (MonitorMsg -> msg) -> m (RouterRef MonitorRef)

Given something that has a pid (A GenServer, a Process.. or just a Pid), attach a monitor by using erlang:monitor on the underlying pid, a message will be sent to the current process, lifted into the constructor f provided

monitorTo :: forall msg process target. HasPid process => HasProcess msg target => process -> target -> (MonitorMsg -> msg) -> Effect (RouterRef MonitorRef)

Given something that has a pid (A GenServer, a Process.. or just a Pid), attach a monitor by using erlang:monitor on the underlying pid, a message will be sent to the current process, lifted into the constructor f provided

demonitor :: RouterRef MonitorRef -> Effect Unit

Stops a monitor started with Monitor.monitor, using erlang:demonitor and subject to the same restrictions/caveats

data MonitorMsg

Reference to a monitor, used to stop the monitor once it is started

Constructors

• Down (RouterRef MonitorRef) MonitorType MonitorObject MonitorInfo

data MonitorType

The type of monitor this message is being sent on behalf

Constructors

• Process
• Port

data MonitorRef :: Type

Reference to a monitor, used to stop the monitor once it is started

type MonitorObject = Foreign

This is probably a Pid, but until it is needed it will be Foreign

type MonitorInfo = Foreign

The 'reason' for the monitor being invoked, if this needs unpacking then FFI will need to be written
