dvdsgl / Monads for a C# dev.md
Last active October 10, 2024 20:26
Monads explained (sort of) to a C# developer

A monad is a fancy word for a generic type of the form MyMonad<T> (a generic type of arity 1).

A monad is special because it adds 'special powers' to the T that it wraps. These 'special powers' won't sound very special to an imperative programmer, so you have to squint to see them but bear with me.

  • IEnumerable<T> is a monad that gives values of type T the special power of nondeterminism, or the ability to 'be' multiple values at once.
  • Nullable<T> is a monad that gives values of type T the special power of nullability, or the ability to be absent.
  • Task<T> is a monad that gives values of type T the special power of asynchronicity, or the ability to be used before they are computed.

The trick with monads comes when you want to play with the T values, because they are inside another type. C# introduced language changes to make dealing with values inside these monads easier:

Exporting (iCloud) Keychain and Safari credentials to a CSV file

Exporting (iCloud) Keychain and Safari credentials to a CSV file

Update (October 2021)

Exporting password + one-time code data from iCloud Keychain is now officially supported in macOS Monterey and Safari 15 (for Monterey, Big Sur, and Catalina). You can access it in the Password Manager’s “gear” icon (System Preferences > Passwords on Monterey, and Safari > Passwords everywhere else), or via the File > Export > Passwords... menu item). You shouldn't need to hack up your own exporter anymore.

Original, Obsolete Content (2014)

After my dad died, I wanted to be able to have access any of his online accounts going forward. My dad was a Safari user and used iCloud Keychain to sync his credentials across his devices. I don’t want to have to keep an OS X user account around just to access his accounts, so I wanted to export his credentials to a portable file.

Swift Result Type

A result type (based on swiftz) that can represent either an error or success:

enum Result<X, T> {
  case Err(() -> X)
  case Ok(() -> T)
}

Now we need a way to chain multiple results together without lots of nesting of if statements -- or exceptions. To do so, we can define a new bind (result, next) operator (implementation borrowed from swiftz) that operates on Result types (a.k.a flatMap or >>=):

  • If the result is Err, the result is immediately returned.
