mig-0.2.1.0: Build lightweight and composable servers
Safe HaskellSafe-Inferred
LanguageGHC2021

Mig.Core

Description

Re-exports everything

With library mig we can build lightweight and composable servers. There are only couple of combinators to assemble servers from parts. It supports generic handler functions as servant does. But strives to use more simple model for API. It does not go to describing Server API at type level which leads to simpler error messages.

The main features are:

  • lightweight library
  • expressive DSL to compose servers
  • type-safe handlers which are encoded with generic haskell functions
  • built on top of WAI and warp server libraries.

Example of hello world server. To run example use library mig-server which is based on core library:

import Mig.Json.IO

-- | We can render the server and run it on port 8085.
-- It uses wai and warp.
main :: IO ()
main = runServer 8085 server

-- | Init simple hello world server which
-- replies on a single route
server :: Server IO
server =
  "api/v1" /.
      [ "hello" /. hello
      , "bye" /. bye
      ]

-- | Handler takes no inputs and marked as Get HTTP-request that returns Text.
hello :: Get (Resp Text)
hello = pure $ ok "Hello World"

-- | Handle with URL-param query and capture as Get HTTP-request that returns Text.
bye :: Query "name" Text -> Capture "suffix" -> Post (Resp Text)
bye (Query name) (Capture suffix) =
  pure $ ok $ "Bye to " <> name <> " " <> suffix
