Below is the following test method I have built to make my life slightly easier using Glide.

ArrowKt has deprecated Try since it promotes eager execution of effects and it recommends to use suspend constructors. But how should I handle following case where I do want eager execution on purpose without using traditional try-catch.

I'm using Kotlin and Arrow and the WebClient from spring-webflux. What I'd like to do is to transform a Mono instance to an Either.

The Either instance is created by calling Either.right(..) when the response of the WebClient is successful or Either.left(..) when WebClient returns an error.

What I'm looking for is a method in Mono similar to Either.fold(..) where I can map over the successful and erroneous result and return a different type than a Mono. Something like this (pseudo-code which doesn't work):

I'm trying to test my Kotlin code, which has Arrow-kt types, using Spock in Groovy. However, I'm not able to use Arrow-kt's additions such as Some. For example, I have a test as follows:

I'm building a simple project with spring boot and spring-kafka, I can't configure it in order to make it work, it's a simple application that generates notes(author, content, createddatetime, lastmodifieddatetime) and sends events based on the notes when they are created.

I have been playing with it with 2 days but I guess I'm not getting it.

Here is my configuration, I'm pretty sure it has a lot of boiler plate but I've been using several examples to make mine work.

I have 2 producer and consumer factories because I need a default one, is that true? Do I need to create a custom factory for each type of message I am willing to send?
