All API requests are bound through this monad which encapsulates an Lwt cooperative thread and includes some state which may be set via API functions.

type 'a t

'a t is an Lwt thread sensitive to GitHub API state.

val return : 'a -> 'a t

return x is the value x wrapped in a state-sensitive Lwt thread.

val bind : ('a -> 'b t) -> 'a t -> 'b t

bind m f is the eventual value of f applied to the contents of m. Its argument order is designed for currying.

val map : ('a -> 'b) -> 'a t -> 'b t

map f m is bind m (fun x -> return (f x)). Its argument order is designed for currying.

val (>>=) : 'a t -> ('a -> 'b t) -> 'b t

m >>= f is {!bind} f m.

val (>|=) : 'a t -> ('a -> 'b) -> 'b t

m >|= f is {!map} f m.

val (>>~) : 'a Response.t t -> ('a -> 'b t) -> 'b t

m >>~ f is m >|= {!Response.value} >>= f.

val run : 'a t -> 'a Lwt.t

run m is the Lwt thread corresponding to the sequence of API actions represented by m. Once a t has been run, any GitHub API state such as associated default security tokens or declared user agent string will not be available in subsequently bound functions.

val embed : 'a Lwt.t -> 'a t

embed lwt is an Lwt thread lifted into the GitHub API monad. Its monadic state will be inherited from any monadic values bound before it.
