The only LensLike law that can apply to a Setter l is that

set l y (set l x a) ≡ set l y a

You can't view a Setter in general, so the other two laws are irrelevant.

However, two Functor laws apply to a Setter:

over l id ≡ id
over l f . over l g ≡ over l (f . g)

These can be stated more directly:

l pure ≡ pure
l f . untainted . l g ≡ l (f . untainted . g)

You can compose a Setter with a Lens or a Traversal using (.) from the Prelude and the result is always only a Setter and nothing more.

>>> over traverse f [a,b,c,d]
[f a,f b,f c,f d]

>>> over _1 f (a,b)
(f a,b)

>>> over (traverse._1) f [(a,b),(c,d)]
[(f a,b),(f c,d)]

>>> over both f (a,b)
(f a,f b)

>>> over (traverse.both) f [(a,b),(c,d)]
[(f a,f b),(f c,f d)]

A Setter' is just a Setter that doesn't change the types.

These are particularly common when talking about monomorphic containers. e.g.

sets Data.Text.map :: Setter' Text Char

type Setter' = Simple Setter

Every IndexedSetter is a valid Setter.

The Setter laws are still required to hold.

type IndexedSetter' i = Simple (IndexedSetter i)

Running a Setter instantiates it to a concrete type.

When consuming a setter directly to perform a mapping, you can use this type, but most user code will not need to use this type.

This is a useful alias for use when consuming a Setter'.

Most user code will never have to use this type.

type ASetter' = Simple ASetter

Running an IndexedSetter instantiates it to a concrete type.

When consuming a setter directly to perform a mapping, you can use this type, but most user code will not need to use this type.

type AnIndexedSetter' i = Simple (AnIndexedSetter i)

This is a convenient alias when defining highly polymorphic code that takes both ASetter and AnIndexedSetter as appropriate. If a function takes this it is expecting one of those two things based on context.

This is a convenient alias when defining highly polymorphic code that takes both ASetter' and AnIndexedSetter' as appropriate. If a function takes this it is expecting one of those two things based on context.

Build a Setter, IndexedSetter or IndexPreservingSetter depending on your choice of Profunctor.

sets :: ((a -> b) -> s -> t) -> Setter s t a b

Build an index-preserving Setter from a map-like function.

Your supplied function f is required to satisfy:

f id ≡ id
f g . f h ≡ f (g . h)

Equational reasoning:

setting . over ≡ id
over . setting ≡ id

Another way to view sets is that it takes a "semantic editor combinator" and transforms it into a Setter.

setting :: ((a -> b) -> s -> t) -> Setter s t a b

Restore ASetter to a full Setter.

Build an IndexPreservingSetter from any Setter.

Clone an IndexedSetter.

This Setter can be used to map over all of the values in a Functor.

fmap ≡ over mapped
fmapDefault ≡ over traverse
(<$) ≡ set mapped

>>> over mapped f [a,b,c]
[f a,f b,f c]

>>> over mapped (+1) [1,2,3]
[2,3,4]

>>> set mapped x [a,b,c]
[x,x,x]

>>> [[a,b],[c]] & mapped.mapped +~ x
[[a + x,b + x],[c + x]]

>>> over (mapped._2) length [("hello","world"),("leaders","!!!")]
[("hello",5),("leaders",3)]

mapped :: Functor f => Setter (f a) (f b) a b

If you want an IndexPreservingSetter use setting fmap.

This setter can be used to modify all of the values in a Monad.

You sometimes have to use this rather than mapped -- due to temporary insanity Functor was not a superclass of Monad until GHC 7.10.

liftM ≡ over lifted

>>> over lifted f [a,b,c]
[f a,f b,f c]

>>> set lifted b (Just a)
Just b

If you want an IndexPreservingSetter use setting liftM.

This Setter can be used to map over all of the inputs to a Contravariant.

contramap ≡ over contramapped

>>> getPredicate (over contramapped (*2) (Predicate even)) 5
True

>>> getOp (over contramapped (*5) (Op show)) 100
"500"

>>> Prelude.map ($ 1) $ over (mapped . _Unwrapping' Op . contramapped) (*12) [(*2),(+1),(^3)]
[24,13,1728]

This Setter can be used to map over the input of a Profunctor.

The most common Profunctor to use this with is (->).

>>> (argument %~ f) g x
g (f x)

>>> (argument %~ show) length [1,2,3]
7

>>> (argument %~ f) h x y
h (f x) y

Map over the argument of the result of a function -- i.e., its second argument:

>>> (mapped.argument %~ f) h x y
h x (f y)

argument :: Setter (b -> r) (a -> r) a b

Modify the target of a Lens or all the targets of a Setter or Traversal with a function.

fmap ≡ over mapped
fmapDefault ≡ over traverse
sets . over ≡ id
over . sets ≡ id

Given any valid Setter l, you can also rely on the law:

over l f . over l g = over l (f . g)

e.g.

>>> over mapped f (over mapped g [a,b,c]) == over mapped (f . g) [a,b,c]
True

Another way to view over is to say that it transforms a Setter into a "semantic editor combinator".

>>> over mapped f (Just a)
Just (f a)

>>> over mapped (*10) [1,2,3]
[10,20,30]

>>> over _1 f (a,b)
(f a,b)

>>> over _1 show (10,20)
("10",20)

over :: Setter s t a b -> (a -> b) -> s -> t
over :: ASetter s t a b -> (a -> b) -> s -> t

Replace the target of a Lens or all of the targets of a Setter or Traversal with a constant value.

(<$) ≡ set mapped

>>> set _2 "hello" (1,())
(1,"hello")

>>> set mapped () [1,2,3,4]
[(),(),(),()]

Note: Attempting to set a Fold or Getter will fail at compile time with an relatively nice error message.

set :: Setter s t a b    -> b -> s -> t
set :: Iso s t a b       -> b -> s -> t
set :: Lens s t a b      -> b -> s -> t
set :: Traversal s t a b -> b -> s -> t

Replace the target of a Lens or all of the targets of a Setter or Traversal with a constant value.

This is an infix version of set, provided for consistency with (.=).

f <$ a ≡ mapped .~ f $ a

>>> (a,b,c,d) & _4 .~ e
(a,b,c,e)

>>> (42,"world") & _1 .~ "hello"
("hello","world")

>>> (a,b) & both .~ c

This is a generalization of censor that allows you to censor just a portion of the resulting MonadWriter.

This is a generalization of censor that allows you to censor just a portion of the resulting MonadWriter, with access to the index of an IndexedSetter.

Modify the value of the Reader environment associated with the target of a Setter, Lens, or Traversal.

locally l id a ≡ a
locally l f . locally l g ≡ locally l (f . g)

>>> (1,1) & locally _1 (+1) (uncurry (+))
3

>>> "," & locally ($) ("Hello" <>) (<> " world!")
"Hello, world!"

locally :: MonadReader s m => Iso s s a b       -> (a -> b) -> m r -> m r
locally :: MonadReader s m => Lens s s a b      -> (a -> b) -> m r -> m r
locally :: MonadReader s m => Traversal s s a b -> (a -> b) -> m r -> m r
locally :: MonadReader s m => Setter s s a b    -> (a -> b) -> m r -> m r

This is a generalization of locally that allows one to make indexed local changes to a Reader environment associated with the target of a Setter, Lens, or Traversal.

locally l f ≡ ilocally l f . const
ilocally l f ≡ locally l f . Indexed

ilocally :: MonadReader s m => IndexedLens s s a b      -> (i -> a -> b) -> m r -> m r
ilocally :: MonadReader s m => IndexedTraversal s s a b -> (i -> a -> b) -> m r -> m r
ilocally :: MonadReader s m => IndexedSetter s s a b    -> (i -> a -> b) -> m r -> m r

Replace the target of a Lens or all of the targets of a Setter' or Traversal with a constant value, without changing its type.

This is a type restricted version of set, which retains the type of the original.

>>> set' mapped x [a,b,c,d]
[x,x,x,x]

>>> set' _2 "hello" (1,"world")
(1,"hello")

>>> set' mapped 0 [1,2,3,4]
[0,0,0,0]

Note: Attempting to adjust set' a Fold or Getter will fail at compile time with an relatively nice error message.

set' :: Setter' s a    -> a -> s -> s
set' :: Iso' s a       -> a -> s -> s
set' :: Lens' s a      -> a -> s -> s
set' :: Traversal' s a -> a -> s -> s

Map with index. (Deprecated alias for iover).

When you do not need access to the index, then mapOf is more liberal in what it can accept.

mapOf l ≡ imapOf l . const

imapOf :: IndexedSetter i s t a b    -> (i -> a -> b) -> s -> t
imapOf :: IndexedLens i s t a b      -> (i -> a -> b) -> s -> t
imapOf :: IndexedTraversal i s t a b -> (i -> a -> b) -> s -> t

Map with index. This is an alias for imapOf.

When you do not need access to the index, then over is more liberal in what it can accept.

over l ≡ iover l . const
iover l ≡ over l . Indexed

iover :: IndexedSetter i s t a b    -> (i -> a -> b) -> s -> t
iover :: IndexedLens i s t a b      -> (i -> a -> b) -> s -> t
iover :: IndexedTraversal i s t a b -> (i -> a -> b) -> s -> t

Set with index. Equivalent to iover with the current value ignored.

When you do not need access to the index, then set is more liberal in what it can accept.

set l ≡ iset l . const

iset :: IndexedSetter i s t a b    -> (i -> b) -> s -> t
iset :: IndexedLens i s t a b      -> (i -> b) -> s -> t
iset :: IndexedTraversal i s t a b -> (i -> b) -> s -> t

This is an alias for (%@=).

Build an IndexedSetter from an imap-like function.

Your supplied function f is required to satisfy:

f id ≡ id
f g . f h ≡ f (g . h)

Equational reasoning:

isets . iover ≡ id
iover . isets ≡ id

Another way to view isets is that it takes a "semantic editor combinator" which has been modified to carry an index and transforms it into a IndexedSetter.

Adjust every target of an IndexedSetter, IndexedLens or IndexedTraversal with access to the index.

(%@~) ≡ iover

When you do not need access to the index then (%~) is more liberal in what it can accept.

l %~ f ≡ l %@~ const f

(%@~) :: IndexedSetter i s t a b    -> (i -> a -> b) -> s -> t
(%@~) :: IndexedLens i s t a b      -> (i -> a -> b) -> s -> t
(%@~) :: IndexedTraversal i s t a b -> (i -> a -> b) -> s -> t

Replace every target of an IndexedSetter, IndexedLens or IndexedTraversal with access to the index.

(.@~) ≡ iset

When you do not need access to the index then (.~) is more liberal in what it can accept.

l .~ b ≡ l .@~ const b

(.@~) :: IndexedSetter i s t a b    -> (i -> b) -> s -> t
(.@~) :: IndexedLens i s t a b      -> (i -> b) -> s -> t
(.@~) :: IndexedTraversal i s t a b -> (i -> b) -> s -> t

Adjust every target in the current state of an IndexedSetter, IndexedLens or IndexedTraversal with access to the index.

When you do not need access to the index then (%=) is more liberal in what it can accept.

l %= f ≡ l %@= const f

(%@=) :: MonadState s m => IndexedSetter i s s a b    -> (i -> a -> b) -> m ()
(%@=) :: MonadState s m => IndexedLens i s s a b      -> (i -> a -> b) -> m ()
(%@=) :: MonadState s m => IndexedTraversal i s t a b -> (i -> a -> b) -> m ()

Replace every target in the current state of an IndexedSetter, IndexedLens or IndexedTraversal with access to the index.

When you do not need access to the index then (.=) is more liberal in what it can accept.

l .= b ≡ l .@= const b

(.@=) :: MonadState s m => IndexedSetter i s s a b    -> (i -> b) -> m ()
(.@=) :: MonadState s m => IndexedLens i s s a b      -> (i -> b) -> m ()
(.@=) :: MonadState s m => IndexedTraversal i s t a b -> (i -> b) -> m ()

Run an arrow command and use the output to set all the targets of a Lens, Setter or Traversal to the result.

assignA can be used very similarly to (<~), except that the type of the object being modified can change; for example:

runKleisli action ((), (), ()) where
  action =      assignA _1 (Kleisli (const getVal1))
           >>> assignA _2 (Kleisli (const getVal2))
           >>> assignA _3 (Kleisli (const getVal3))
  getVal1 :: Either String Int
  getVal1 = ...
  getVal2 :: Either String Bool
  getVal2 = ...
  getVal3 :: Either String Char
  getVal3 = ...

has the type Either String (Int, Bool, Char)

assignA :: Arrow p => Iso s t a b       -> p s b -> p s t
assignA :: Arrow p => Lens s t a b      -> p s b -> p s t
assignA :: Arrow p => Traversal s t a b -> p s b -> p s t
assignA :: Arrow p => Setter s t a b    -> p s b -> p s t

Anything Settable must be isomorphic to the Identity Functor.

Identity functor and monad. (a non-strict monad)

Since: base-4.8.0.0

mapOf is a deprecated alias for over.
