string-like: A package that aims to provide a uniform interface to string-like types.
This is a package candidate release! Here you can preview how this package release will appear once published to the main package index (which can be accomplished via the 'maintain' link below). Please note that once a package has been published to the main package index it cannot be undone! Please consult the package uploading documentation for more information.
The package defines a typeclass that can be implemented to provide a uniform interface for String-like objects.
The typeclass itself has default implementations that convert the StringLike
item first to a lazy Text, then performs the operation, and converts results back to
its StringLike object. This is usually not as efficient as an operation for
that specific type. Therefore it is advisable to implement the other functions as well.
One can however decide to only implement fromText and toText; or toString.
