The problem with simple parameters is that I need to drag all of my low level stuff through all of the layers of the application.
I one was imagining a framework for Closure that would do something like that:
- you define a bunch of functions. Some of this functions depend on other of those functions.
- for dependent ones you define parameters and tag them somehow
- you call this functions without mentioning those tagged parameters
- during the startup the framework takes over and does partial application, generating functions with same names but without tagged parameters, so you kinda have your dependencies injected.
I don’t know if this sounds too crazy or too incorrect for Closure’s paradigm.
- ilovecaching 8y agoThat's what composite values are for, combining related pieces of data such that they can be threaded through an application as a unit. State in FP is passed this way through an application. Adding a framework is a premature abstraction that is likely a sign that you've got your types wrong.
