InMemoryMechanismRepository is analogous to a Haskell stateful data structure that holds a Map within a monadic context. This class abstracts over an effect type F, which can be seen as a Haskell monad that supports side effects and state management.
Type parameters
F
The abstract effect type, which could be likened to an effectful monad in Haskell (e.g., IO, StateT). type MechanismRepository m = StateT (Map MechanismId Mechanism) m
Value parameters
state
Ref[F, Map[MechanismId, Mechanism]]
Ref in Scala is similar to IORef or MVar in Haskell, representing mutable state within a monad.
Map[MechanismId, Mechanism] represents an immutable key-value data structure, comparable to Data.Map in Haskell.
F[_]: Sync constraint in Scala corresponds to a Haskell MonadIO constraint, enabling us to manage effects in a functional way.
