The monad and its operations
Administration: errors, locations and IO
reportError :: String -> Q () Source #
Report an error to the user, but allow the current splice's computation to carry on. To abort the computation, use fail
.
reportWarning :: String -> Q () Source #
Report a warning to the user, and carry on.
report :: Bool -> String -> Q () Source #
Deprecated: Use reportError or reportWarning instead
Report an error (True) or warning (False),
but carry on; use fail
to stop.
Recover from errors raised by reportError
or fail
.
Loc | |
|
The runIO
function lets you run an I/O computation in the Q
monad.
Take care: you are guaranteed the ordering of calls to runIO
within
a single Q
computation, but not about the order in which splices are run.
Note: for various murky reasons, stdout and stderr handles are not necessarily flushed when the compiler finishes running, so you should flush them yourself.
Querying the compiler
Reify
reify :: Name -> Q Info Source #
reify
looks up information about the Name
.
It is sometimes useful to construct the argument name using lookupTypeName
or lookupValueName
to ensure that we are reifying from the right namespace. For instance, in this context:
data D = D
which D
does reify (mkName "D")
return information about? (Answer: D
-the-type, but don't rely on it.)
To ensure we get information about D
-the-value, use lookupValueName
:
do Just nm <- lookupValueName "D" reify nm
and to get information about D
-the-type, use lookupTypeName
.
reifyModule :: Module -> Q ModuleInfo Source #
reifyModule mod
looks up information about module mod
. To
look up the current module, call this function with the return
value of thisModule
.
ClassI Dec [InstanceDec] | A class, with a list of its visible instances |
ClassOpI Name Type ParentName | A class method |
TyConI Dec | A "plain" type constructor. "Fancier" type constructors are returned using |
FamilyI Dec [InstanceDec] | A type or data family, with a list of its visible instances. A closed type family is returned with 0 instances. |
PrimTyConI Name Arity Unlifted | A "primitive" type constructor, which can't be expressed with a |
DataConI Name Type ParentName | A data constructor |
PatSynI Name PatSynType | A pattern synonym. |
VarI Name Type (Maybe Dec) | A "value" variable (as opposed to a type variable, see The |
TyVarI Name Type | A type variable. The |
data ModuleInfo Source #
Obtained from reifyModule
in the Q
Monad.
ModuleInfo [Module] | Contains the import list of the module. |
type InstanceDec = Dec Source #
InstanceDec
desribes a single instance of a class or type function.
It is just a Dec
, but guaranteed to be one of the following:
InstanceD
(with empty[
)Dec
]DataInstD
orNewtypeInstD
(with empty derived[
)Name
]TySynInstD
In UnboxedSumE
and UnboxedSumP
, the number associated with a
particular data constructor. SumAlt
s are one-indexed and should never
exceed the value of its corresponding SumArity
. For example:
In UnboxedSumE
, UnboxedSumT
, and UnboxedSumP
, the total number of
SumAlt
s. For example, (#|#)
has a SumArity
of 2.
In PrimTyConI
, arity of the type constructor
In PrimTyConI
, is the type constructor unlifted?
Language extension lookup
The language extensions known to GHC.
Note that there is an orphan Binary
instance for this type supplied by
the GHC.LanguageExtensions module provided by ghc-boot
. We can't provide
here as this would require adding transitive dependencies to the
template-haskell
package, which must have a minimal dependency set.
extsEnabled :: Q [Extension] Source #
List all enabled language extensions.
isExtEnabled :: Extension -> Q Bool Source #
Determine whether the given language extension is enabled in the Q
monad.
Name lookup
lookupTypeName :: String -> Q (Maybe Name) Source #
Look up the given name in the (type namespace of the) current splice's scope. See Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax for more details.
lookupValueName :: String -> Q (Maybe Name) Source #
Look up the given name in the (value namespace of the) current splice's scope. See Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax for more details.
Fixity lookup
reifyFixity :: Name -> Q (Maybe Fixity) Source #
reifyFixity nm
attempts to find a fixity declaration for nm
. For
example, if the function foo
has the fixity declaration infixr 7 foo
, then
reifyFixity 'foo
would return
. If the function
Just
(Fixity
7 InfixR
)bar
does not have a fixity declaration, then reifyFixity 'bar
returns
Nothing
, so you may assume bar
has defaultFixity
.
Instance lookup
reifyInstances :: Name -> [Type] -> Q [InstanceDec] Source #
reifyInstances nm tys
returns a list of visible instances of nm tys
. That is,
if nm
is the name of a type class, then all instances of this class at the types tys
are returned. Alternatively, if nm
is the name of a data family or type family,
all instances of this family at the types tys
are returned.
isInstance :: Name -> [Type] -> Q Bool Source #
Is the list of instances returned by reifyInstances
nonempty?
Roles lookup
reifyRoles :: Name -> Q [Role] Source #
reifyRoles nm
returns the list of roles associated with the parameters of
the tycon nm
. Fails if nm
cannot be found or is not a tycon.
The returned list should never contain InferR
.
Annotation lookup
reifyAnnotations :: Data a => AnnLookup -> Q [a] Source #
reifyAnnotations target
returns the list of annotations
associated with target
. Only the annotations that are
appropriately typed is returned. So if you have Int
and String
annotations for the same target, you have to call this function twice.
Annotation target for reifyAnnotations
Constructor strictness lookup
reifyConStrictness :: Name -> Q [DecidedStrictness] Source #
reifyConStrictness nm
looks up the strictness information for the fields
of the constructor with the name nm
. Note that the strictness information
that reifyConStrictness
returns may not correspond to what is written in
the source code. For example, in the following data declaration:
data Pair a = Pair a a
reifyConStrictness
would return [
under most
circumstances, but it would return DecidedLazy
, DecidedLazy][
if the
DecidedStrict
, DecidedStrict]-XStrictData
language extension was enabled.
Typed expressions
Names
An abstract type representing names in the syntax tree.
Name
s can be constructed in several ways, which come with different
name-capture guarantees (see Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax for
an explanation of name capture):
- the built-in syntax
'f
and''T
can be used to construct names, The expression'f
gives aName
which refers to the valuef
currently in scope, and''T
gives aName
which refers to the typeT
currently in scope. These names can never be captured. lookupValueName
andlookupTypeName
are similar to'f
and''T
respectively, but theName
s are looked up at the point where the current splice is being run. These names can never be captured.newName
monadically generates a new name, which can never be captured.mkName
generates a capturable name.
Names constructed using newName
and mkName
may be used in bindings
(such as let x = ...
or x -> ...
), but names constructed using
lookupValueName
, lookupTypeName
, 'f
, ''T
may not.
Constructing names
mkName :: String -> Name Source #
Generate a capturable name. Occurrences of such names will be resolved according to the Haskell scoping rules at the occurrence site.
For example:
f = [| pi + $(varE (mkName "pi")) |] ... g = let pi = 3 in $f
In this case, g
is desugared to
g = Prelude.pi + 3
Note that mkName
may be used with qualified names:
mkName "Prelude.pi"
See also dyn
for a useful combinator. The above example could
be rewritten using dyn
as
f = [| pi + $(dyn "pi") |]
newName :: String -> Q Name Source #
Generate a fresh name, which cannot be captured.
For example, this:
f = $(do nm1 <- newName "x" let nm2 =mkName
"x" return (LamE
[VarP
nm1] (LamE [VarP nm2] (VarE
nm1))) )
will produce the splice
f = \x0 -> \x -> x0
In particular, the occurrence VarE nm1
refers to the binding VarP nm1
,
and is not captured by the binding VarP nm2
.
Although names generated by newName
cannot be captured, they can
capture other names. For example, this:
g = $(do nm1 <- newName "x" let nm2 = mkName "x" return (LamE [VarP nm2] (LamE [VarP nm1] (VarE nm2))) )
will produce the splice
g = \x -> \x0 -> x0
since the occurrence VarE nm2
is captured by the innermost binding
of x
, namely VarP nm1
.
Deconstructing names
nameBase :: Name -> String Source #
The name without its module prefix.
Examples
>>>
nameBase ''Data.Either.Either
"Either">>>
nameBase (mkName "foo")
"foo">>>
nameBase (mkName "Module.foo")
"foo"
nameModule :: Name -> Maybe String Source #
Module prefix of a name, if it exists.
Examples
>>>
nameModule ''Data.Either.Either
Just "Data.Either">>>
nameModule (mkName "foo")
Nothing>>>
nameModule (mkName "Module.foo")
Just "Module"
namePackage :: Name -> Maybe String Source #
A name's package, if it exists.
Examples
>>>
namePackage ''Data.Either.Either
Just "base">>>
namePackage (mkName "foo")
Nothing>>>
namePackage (mkName "Module.foo")
Nothing
nameSpace :: Name -> Maybe NameSpace Source #
Returns whether a name represents an occurrence of a top-level variable
(VarName
), data constructor (DataName
), type constructor, or type class
(TcClsName
). If we can't be sure, it returns Nothing
.
Examples
>>>
nameSpace 'Prelude.id
Just VarName>>>
nameSpace (mkName "id")
Nothing -- only works for top-level variable names>>>
nameSpace 'Data.Maybe.Just
Just DataName>>>
nameSpace ''Data.Maybe.Maybe
Just TcClsName>>>
nameSpace ''Data.Ord.Ord
Just TcClsName
Built-in names
tupleTypeName :: Int -> Name Source #
Tuple type constructor
tupleDataName :: Int -> Name Source #
Tuple data constructor
unboxedTupleTypeName :: Int -> Name Source #
Unboxed tuple type constructor
unboxedTupleDataName :: Int -> Name Source #
Unboxed tuple data constructor
unboxedSumTypeName :: SumArity -> Name Source #
Unboxed sum type constructor
The algebraic data types
The lowercase versions (syntax operators) of these constructors are
preferred to these constructors, since they compose better with
quotations ([| |]
) and splices ($( ... )
)

To avoid duplication between kinds and types, they
are defined to be the same. Naturally, you would never
have a type be StarT
and you would never have a kind
be SigT
, but many of the other constructors are shared.
Note that the kind Bool
is denoted with ConT
, not
PromotedT
. Similarly, tuple kinds are made with TupleT
,
not PromotedTupleT
.
Since the advent of ConstraintKinds
, constraints are really just types.
Equality constraints use the EqualityT
constructor. Constraints may also
be tuples of other constraints.

A Pattern synonym's type. Note that a pattern synonym's *fully* specified type has a peculiar shape coming with two forall quantifiers and two constraint contexts. For example, consider the pattern synonym
pattern P x1 x2 ... xn = some-pattern
P's complete type is of the following form
forall universals. required constraints => forall existentials. provided constraints => t1 -> t2 -> ... -> tn -> t
consisting of four parts:
1) the (possibly empty lists of) universally quantified type variables and required constraints on them. 2) the (possibly empty lists of) existentially quantified type variables and the provided constraints on them. 3) the types t1, t2, .., tn of x1, x2, .., xn, respectively 4) the type t of some-pattern, mentioning only universals.
Pattern synonym types interact with TH when (a) reifying a pattern synonym, (b) pretty printing, or (c) specifying a pattern synonym's type signature explicitly:
(a) Reification always returns a pattern synonym's *fully* specified type in abstract syntax.
(b) Pretty printing via pprPatSynType
abbreviates a pattern
synonym's type unambiguously in concrete syntax: The rule of
thumb is to print initial empty universals and the required
context as `() =>`, if existentials and a provided context
follow. If only universals and their required context, but no
existentials are specified, only the universals and their
required context are printed. If both or none are specified, so
both (or none) are printed.
(c) When specifying a pattern synonym's type explicitly with
PatSynSigD
either one of the universals, the existentials, or
their contexts may be left empty.
