Run a monadic action in a larger environment than it was defined in, using a Getter.

This acts like local, but can in many cases change the type of the environment as well.

This is commonly used to lift actions in a simpler Reader Monad into a Monad with a larger environment type.

This can be used to edit pretty much any Monad transformer stack with an environment in it:

>>> (1,2) & magnify _2 (+1)
3

>>> flip Reader.runReader (1,2) $ magnify _1 Reader.ask
1

>>> flip Reader.runReader (1,2,[10..20]) $ magnify (_3._tail) Reader.ask
[11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20]

magnify :: Getter s a -> (a -> r) -> s -> r
magnify :: Monoid r => Fold s a   -> (a -> r) -> s -> r

magnify :: Monoid w                 => Getter s t -> RWS t w st c -> RWS s w st c
magnify :: (Monoid w, Monoid c) => Fold s a   -> RWS a w st c -> RWS s w st c

Run a monadic action in a larger State than it was defined in, using a Lens' or Traversal'.

This is commonly used to lift actions in a simpler State Monad into a State Monad with a larger State type.

When applied to a Traversal' over multiple values, the actions for each target are executed sequentially and the results are aggregated.

This can be used to edit pretty much any Monad transformer stack with a State in it!

>>> flip State.evalState (a,b) $ zoom _1 $ use id
a

>>> flip State.execState (a,b) $ zoom _1 $ id .= c
(c,b)

>>> flip State.execState [(a,b),(c,d)] $ zoom traverse $ _2 %= f
[(a,f b),(c,f d)]

>>> flip State.runState [(a,b),(c,d)] $ zoom traverse $ _2 <%= f
(f b <> f d <> mempty,[(a,f b),(c,f d)])

>>> flip State.evalState (a,b) $ zoom both (use id)
a <> b
