[ramda_v0.26.x] Cannot call `R.pipe`: string is not compatible with null or undefined

Consider this function:

const setLayout = (callback: (GridItem[]) => void) =>
  R.pipe(
    key => localStorage.getItem(key),
    R.tryCatch(JSON.parse, R.F),
    R.when(isLayoutValid, callback)
  );

setLayout(someCallback)('someKey');

flow will throw an error:

Cannot call `R.pipe`: string is not compatible with null or undefined

JSON.parse expects a string as an input, but first function in the pipe may return either string or undefined.

Should R.tryCatch suppress this sort of error popping up?

@retyui ugh - I was thinking JSON.stringify. I will sit in silent shame now. Thanks for chiming in!

Should R.tryCatch suppress this sort of error popping up?

in terms of types, the answer is no

Any way I could wrap R.tryCatch into something that would prevent the error?
