public interface Lens<S,T,A,B>
extends Optic<Cartesian<?,?,?>,Functor<?,?>,S,T,A,B>, MonadRec<T,Lens<S,?,A,B>>, Profunctor<S,T,Lens<?,?,A,B>>

An approximation of van Laarhoven lenses.

A "lens" can be considered in its simplest form as the conjugation of a "getter" and a "setter"; that is, a unification type representing the way to retrieve a "smaller" value A from a "larger" value S, as well as a way to update a "smaller" value B of a "larger" value S, producing another "larger" value T.

Consider the following example:

 
 public final class Person {
     private final int age;

     public Person(int age) {
         this.age = age;
     }

     public int getAge() {
         return age;
     }

     public Person setAge(int age) {
         return new Person(age);
     }
 }
 
 

A lens that focused on the age field of an instance of Person might look like this:

 
 Lens<Person, Person, Integer, Integer> ageLens = Lens.lens(Person::getAge, Person::setAge);

 Person adult = new Person(18);
 Integer age = view(ageLens, adult); // 18

 Person olderAdult = set(ageLens, 19, adult);
 Integer olderAge = view(ageLens, olderAdult); // 19
 
 

The pattern of a getter and setter that mutually agree on both A and B as well as on both S and T is so common that this can be given a simplified type signature:

 
 Lens.Simple<Person, Integer> ageLens = Lens.simpleLens(Person::getAge, Person::setAge);

 Person adult = new Person(18);
 Integer age = view(ageLens, adult); // 18

 Person olderAdult = set(ageLens, 19, adult);
 Integer olderAge = view(ageLens, olderAdult); // 19
 
 

However, consider if age could be updated on a Person by being provided a date of birth, in the form of a LocalDate:

 
 public final class Person {
     private final int age;

     public Person(int age) {
         this.age = age;
     }

     public int getAge() {
         return age;
     }

     public Person setAge(int age) {
         return new Person(age);
     }

     public Person setAge(LocalDate dob) {
         return setAge((int) YEARS.between(dob, LocalDate.now()));
     }
 }
 
 

This is why Lens has both an A and a B: A is the value for "getting", and B is the potentially different value for "setting". This distinction makes lenses powerful enough to express the more complicated setAge case naturally:

 
 Lens<Person, Person, Integer, LocalDate> ageDobLens = Lens.lens(Person::getAge, Person::setAge);

 Person adult = new Person(18);
 Integer age = view(ageDobLens, adult); // 18

 Person olderAdult = set(ageDobLens, LocalDate.of(1997, 1, 1), adult);
 Integer olderAge = view(ageDobLens, olderAdult); // 19 at the time of this writing...anyone else feel old?
 
 

Additionally, we might imagine a lens that produces a different "larger" value on updating than what was given. Consider a lens that reads the first string from a list, but produces a Set of strings on update:

 
 Lens<List<String>, Set<String>, String, String> lens = Lens.lens(
         l -> l.get(0),
         (l, s) -> {
             List<String> copy = new ArrayList<>(l);
             copy.set(0, s);
             return new HashSet<>(copy);
         });

 String firstElement = view(lens, asList("foo", "bar")); // "foo
 System.out.println(firstElement);

 set(lens, "oof", asList("foo", "bar")); // ["bar", "oof"]
 set(lens, "bar", asList("foo", "bar")); // ["bar"]
