Exceptional (compatibility with Witchcraft)

creminology:

I’ve often wondered if Exceptional 2 is compatible with Witchcraft since both use the ~>/2 operator.

Maybe it needs an override, for example:

use Witchcraft.Applicative, except: [~>: 2]

@expede:

In short: no. You can use them together, but they’re fully separate. Unfortunately there’s a very restricted number of operators in Elixir, so it’s a different ~>/2. You’ll also find ~>/2 in other libraries doing totally different things.

use Witchcraft.Applicative, except: [~>: 2]

To use them together, you’d need to do something like this, yeah.
