0.5.0

Add instance creation helper ⭐

Introducing Refinery 🏭 a helper class for creating instances of types:

@JvmInline
value class Name private constructor(private val value: String) {

    companion object : Refinery<String, Name>() {
        override fun Refinement<String>.refine() = filter { it.isNotBlank() }.map { Name(it) }
    }
}

val grog = Name.fromOrThrow("Grog") // returns a Name instance "Grog"
val void = Name.fromOrThrow("")     // throws RefinementException

Add Arrow support ⭐

A new module krefty-arrow was created to support working with Either type

Deprecate Predicate ⏳

Removing Predicate support in favour of (T) -> Boolean

Remove Refined 🛑

Refined was completely replaced by Refinement

0.4.1

Turn refinements into lazy monads ⭐

Refined turning into a Refinement monad 👾

Now the base type value can be retrieved by calling getOrThrow, getOrError, getOrElse, getOrNull. It also can be transformed as Collections/Either/Ior with map and flatMap functions

Deprecate Refined ⌛

The refined function is deprecated:

"Krefty" refined NotBlank() // eagerly convert to Refined or throw exception

Now refine and get* functions must be called instead:

val refined = "Krefty" refine NotBlank()
refined.getOrThrow()
