Go streams (a look at what is possible with generics)

  All generic functions for Go you ever need! (by life4)

  

I faced the same issue when migrating genesis from code generation to generics. Before it used to have the same streaming API as you describe but now I decided to go with functional API. That means, you basically "pipe" data with temporary variables. So your last example would look something like this:

• go

  2,067 119,564 10.0 Go

  The Go programming language

  

Yes, it requires you to come up with more variable names but it doesn't make code much longer or less readable. The proposal add elixir-like pipe operator has a long discussion on the subject. That said, I'm still trying to figure out if it is possible to implement with generics some kind of pipe or lenses.

Came to pretty similar conclusions regarding the ergonomics myself: https://github.com/urandom/iter/blob/main/README.md
