Description

A Document is at heart ShowS from the prelude

Essentially, if you give a Doc a string it'll print out whatever it wants followed by that string. So text "foo" makes the Doc that prints "foo" followed by its argument. The combinator names are taken from HughesPJ, although the behaviour of the two libraries is slightly different.

The advantage of Printer over simple string appending/concatenating is that the appends end up associating to the right, e.g.:

  (text "foo" <> text "bar") <> (text "baz" <> text "quux") ""
= \s -> (text "foo" <> text "bar") ((text "baz" <> text "quux") s) ""
= (text "foo" <> text "bar") ((text "baz" <> text "quux") "")
= (\s -> (text "foo") (text "bar" s)) ((text "baz" <> text "quux") "")
= text "foo" (text "bar" ((text "baz" <> text "quux") ""))
= (\s -> "foo" ++ s) (text "bar" ((text "baz" <> text "quux") ""))
= "foo" ++ (text "bar" ((text "baz" <> text "quux") ""))
= "foo" ++ ("bar" ++ ((text "baz" <> text "quux") ""))
= "foo" ++ ("bar" ++ ((\s -> text "baz" (text "quux" s)) ""))
= "foo" ++ ("bar" ++ (text "baz" (text "quux" "")))
= "foo" ++ ("bar" ++ ("baz" ++ (text "quux" "")))
= "foo" ++ ("bar" ++ ("baz" ++ ("quux" ++ "")))

The Empty alternative comes in because you want

text "a" $$ vcat xs $$ text "b"

$$ means above, vcat is the list version of $$ (to be "a\nb" when xs is []), but without the concept of an Empty Document each $$ would add a '\n' and you'd end up with "a\n\nb". Note that Empty /= text "" (the latter would cause two '\\n').

This code was made generic in the element type by Juliusz Chroboczek.

Synopsis

`Doc` type and structural combinators

newtype Doc Source #

A Doc is a bit of enriched text. Docs are concatenated using <> from class Monoid, which is right-associative.

Constructors

Doc
Fields unDoc :: St -> Document

Instances

IsString Doc Source #	Together with the language extension OverloadedStrings, this allows to use string literals where a `Doc` is expected.
Methods fromString :: String -> Doc #
Monoid Doc Source #	`mappend` (`<>`) is concatenation, `mempty` is the `empty` `Doc`
Methods mempty :: Doc # mappend :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc # mconcat :: [Doc] -> Doc #

empty :: Doc Source #

The empty Doc

(<>) :: Monoid m => m -> m -> m infixr 6 #

An infix synonym for mappend.

Since: 4.5.0.0

(<?>) :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc Source #

a <?> b is a <> b if a is not empty, else empty

(<+>) :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc infixr 6 Source #

a <+> b is a followed by a space, then b

($$) :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc infixr 5 Source #

Constructing `Doc`s

text :: String -> Doc Source #

text creates a Doc from a String, using printable.

hiddenText :: String -> Doc Source #

hiddenText creates a Doc containing hidden text from a String

invisibleText :: String -> Doc Source #

invisibleText creates a Doc containing invisible text from a String

wrapText :: Int -> String -> Doc Source #

wrapText n s is a Doc representing s line-wrapped at n characters

quoted :: String -> Doc Source #

Quote a string for screen output

userchunk :: String -> Doc Source #

userchunk creates a Doc containing a user chunk from a String

packedString :: ByteString -> Doc Source #

packedString builds a Doc from a ByteString using printable

prefix :: String -> Doc -> Doc Source #

hiddenPrefix :: String -> Doc -> Doc Source #

insertBeforeLastline :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc Source #

prefixLines :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc Source #

invisiblePS :: ByteString -> Doc Source #

invisiblePS creates a Doc with invisible text from a ByteString

userchunkPS :: ByteString -> Doc Source #

userchunkPS creates a Doc representing a user chunk from a ByteString.

Rrrright. And what, please is that supposed to mean?

Rendering

data RenderMode Source #

Used when rendering a Doc to indicate if the result should be encoded to the current locale or left alone. In practice this only affects output when a relevant DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_XXX option is set (see Darcs.Util.Printer.Color) If in doubt, choose Standard.

Constructors

Encode	Encode Strings with the current locale. At present ByteStrings are assumed to be in UTF8 and are left alone, so will be mis-encoded in non-UTF8 locales.
Standard	Don't encode.

renderString :: RenderMode -> Doc -> String Source #

renders a Doc into a String with control codes for the special features of the doc.

renderStringWith :: Printers' -> RenderMode -> Doc -> String Source #

renders a Doc into a String using a given set of printers.

renderPS :: RenderMode -> Doc -> ByteString Source #

renders a Doc into ByteString with control codes for the special features of the Doc. See also readerString.

renderPSWith :: Printers' -> RenderMode -> Doc -> ByteString Source #

renders a doc into a ByteString using a given set of printers.

renderPSs :: RenderMode -> Doc -> [ByteString] Source #

renders a Doc into a list of PackedStrings, one for each line.

renderPSsWith :: Printers' -> RenderMode -> Doc -> [ByteString] Source #

renders a Doc into a list of PackedStrings, one for each chunk of text that was added to the doc, using the given set of printers.

Printers

type Printers = Handle -> Printers' Source #

data Printers' Source #

A set of printers to print different types of text to a handle.

Constructors

Printers
Fields colorP :: !(Color -> Printer) invisibleP :: !Printer hiddenP :: !Printer userchunkP :: !Printer defP :: !Printer lineColorT :: !(Color -> Doc -> Doc) lineColorS :: !([Printable] -> [Printable])

type Printer = Printable -> St -> Document Source #

simplePrinters :: Printers Source #

simplePrinters is a Printers which uses the set 'simplePriners\'' on any handle.

invisiblePrinter :: Printer Source #

invisiblePrinter is the Printer for hidden text. It just replaces the document with empty. It's useful to have a printer that doesn't actually do anything because this allows you to have tunable policies, for example, only printing some text if it's to the terminal, but not if it's to a file or vice-versa.

simplePrinter :: Printer Source #

simplePrinter is the simplest Printer: it just concatenates together the pieces of the Doc

Printables

data Printable Source #

A Printable is either a String, a packed string, or a chunk of text with both representations.

Constructors

S !String
PS !ByteString
Both !String !ByteString

doc :: ([Printable] -> [Printable]) -> Doc Source #

printable :: Printable -> Doc Source #

Creates a Doc from any Printable.

invisiblePrintable :: Printable -> Doc Source #

hiddenPrintable :: Printable -> Doc Source #

userchunkPrintable :: Printable -> Doc Source #

Creates... WTF is a userchunk???

hPutDocLn :: RenderMode -> Handle -> Doc -> IO () Source #

hputDocLn puts a doc, followed by a newline on the given handle using simplePrinters.

putDoc :: Doc -> IO () Source #

putDoc puts a doc on stdout using the simple printer simplePrinters.

putDocLn :: Doc -> IO () Source #

putDocLn puts a doc, followed by a newline on stdout using simplePrinters

hPutDocWith :: Printers -> RenderMode -> Handle -> Doc -> IO () Source #

hputDocWith puts a doc on the given handle using the given printer.

hPutDocLnWith :: Printers -> RenderMode -> Handle -> Doc -> IO () Source #

hputDocLnWith puts a doc, followed by a newline on the given handle using the given printer.

putDocWith :: Printers -> Doc -> IO () Source #

putDocWith puts a doc on stdout using the given printer.

putDocLnWith :: Printers -> Doc -> IO () Source #

putDocLnWith puts a doc, followed by a newline on stdout using the given printer.

hPutDocCompr :: RenderMode -> Handle -> Doc -> IO () Source #

debugDocLn :: Doc -> IO () Source #

Write a Doc to stderr if debugging is turned on.

ePutDocLn :: Doc -> IO () Source #

eputDocLn puts a doc, followed by a newline to stderr using simplePrinters. Like putDocLn, it encodes with the user's locale. This function is the recommended way to output messages that should be visible to users on the console, but cannot (or should not) be silenced even when --quiet is in effect.

errorDoc :: Doc -> a Source #

Fail with a stack trace and the given Doc as error message.
