I understand, but in this case when you mixing deferred with either, you are delgating the error handling to either
the error notion of deffered can only contain exceptions so I thing if you want to combine the timeout aware deferreds with either you should handle 3 types of return values...
Or... implement a different notion of timeout... instead of use the deferred builtin one
you can define your own timeout behavior that for example return a Left instance with some timeout related error inside
in this way, not using the builtin deferred timeout implementation, the transformers can be used without problems.
hmm, yes, a timeout returning a Left instance would work
niwinz: i did a PR to permit timeout values to be set as per discussion above
presumably the cats.labs.channel could be similarly extended with timeouts... i might take a look at that soon, i could do with some sane core.async timeout behaviour in the clojurescript bit of my project
nice work @mccraigmccraig
my little contribution in return for your nice work @niwinz
