Hello,
I would like to have your advice in order to optimize this code.
The purpose is to trigg an action 'a' if a list of files (thousands) exists.
A process copy files from one directory to another.
allFilesThere :: MonadIO m => [Path Abs File] -> m Bool
allFilesThere fs = liftIO $ allM (doesFileExist . fromAbsFile) fs
trigOnAllFiles :: MonadIO m => m r -> [Path Abs File] -> m r
trigOnAllFiles a fs = go
where
go = do
r <- allFilesThere fs
if r then a else
( do liftIO $ threadDelay 1000000
go)
It works, but it consums a lot's of resources when all the files does not
exists yet.
So I would like your advice in order to optimize it :)
thanks for your help.
Frederic

Hello trent,

changing all the three occurrences of Yff to Iff does not produce
error.
If you change only two you will get an error, because you have a
pattern-matching against a non-existent constructor

Hi,
Current code re-checks file existence always in same order, so worst case
is - N files and only last of them does not exists.
In that case this code will re-check (N-1) files during each consecutive
retry.
This can be optimized by moving already existing files to the end of file
list(or dropping them from list completely, if files are only added but
never removed).
For this you could re-write `allFilesThere` something like:
allFilesThere fs = liftIO $ do
existing, non_existing <- partitionM (doesFileExist . fromAbsFile) fs
return (non_existing++ existing, null non_existing)
Then allFilesThere could start next iteration by checking previously
non-existing files and probably failing much faster.

My first instinct is to just use anyM instead of allM
allFilesThere :: MonadIO m => [Path Abs File] -> m Bool
allFilesThere fs = liftIO $ anyM (not . doesFileExist . fromAbsFile) fs
However you'll now have the opposite problem. It will take a lot of
resources when all the files are there. But maybe that is okay for your
use case?
