Database.SQLite.Simple.FromRow
Description
The FromRow typeclass, for converting a row of results
returned by a SQL query into a more useful Haskell representation.
Predefined instances are provided for tuples containing up to ten elements.
Documentation
class FromRow a where Source #
A collection type that can be converted from a sequence of fields. Instances are provided for tuples up to 10 elements and lists of any length.
Note that instances can defined outside of sqlite-simple, which is often useful. For example, here's an instance for a user-defined pair:
@data User = User { name :: String, fileQuota :: Int }
instance FromRow User where
fromRow = User <$> field <*> field
@
The number of calls to field must match the number of fields returned
in a single row of the query result. Otherwise, a ConversionFailed
exception will be thrown.
Note the caveats associated with user-defined implementations of
fromRow.
