Description

Provides a collection of pretty printer combinators, a set of API's that provides a way to easily print out text in a consistent format of your choosing.

This module should be used as opposed to the HughesPJ module. Both are equivalent though as this module simply re-exports the other.

Synopsis

The document type

data Doc Source

The abstract type of documents. A Doc represents a *set* of layouts. A Doc with no occurrences of Union or NoDoc represents just one layout.

Constructing documents

Converting values into documents

char :: Char -> Doc Source

A document of height and width 1, containing a literal character.

text :: String -> Doc Source

A document of height 1 containing a literal string. text satisfies the following laws:

```
text s <> text t = text (s++t)
```
text "" <> x = x, if x non-empty

The side condition on the last law is necessary because text "" has height 1, while empty has no height.

ptext :: String -> Doc Source

Same as text. Used to be used for Bytestrings.

sizedText :: Int -> String -> Doc Source

Some text with any width. (text s = sizedText (length s) s)

zeroWidthText :: String -> Doc Source

Some text, but without any width. Use for non-printing text such as a HTML or Latex tags

int Source

Arguments

:: Int
-> Doc	int n = text (show n)

integer Source

Arguments

:: Integer
-> Doc	integer n = text (show n)

float Source

Arguments

:: Float
-> Doc	float n = text (show n)

double Source

Arguments

:: Double
-> Doc	double n = text (show n)

rational Source

Arguments

:: Rational
-> Doc	rational n = text (show n)

Simple derived documents

semi Source

A ';' character

comma Source

colon Source

Arguments

A : character

space Source

lbrace Source

Arguments

rbrace Source

Arguments

Wrapping documents in delimiters

parens Source

Arguments

:: Doc
-> Doc	Wrap document in `(...)`

brackets Source

Arguments

:: Doc
-> Doc	Wrap document in `[...]`

braces Source

Arguments

:: Doc
-> Doc	Wrap document in `{...}`

quotes Source

Arguments

:: Doc
-> Doc	Wrap document in `'...'`

doubleQuotes Source

Arguments

:: Doc
-> Doc	Wrap document in `"..."`

Combining documents

empty :: Doc Source

The empty document, with no height and no width. empty is the identity for <>, <+>, $$ and $+$ , and anywhere in the argument list for sep, hcat, hsep, vcat, fcat etc.

(<>) :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc infixl 6 Source

Beside. <> is associative, with identity empty.

(<+>) :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc infixl 6 Source

Beside, separated by space, unless one of the arguments is empty. <+> is associative, with identity empty.

hcat :: [Doc] -> Doc Source

List version of <>.

hsep :: [Doc] -> Doc Source

List version of <+>.

($$) :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc infixl 5 Source

Above, except that if the last line of the first argument stops at least one position before the first line of the second begins, these two lines are overlapped. For example:

   text "hi" $$ nest 5 (text "there")

lays out as

   hi   there

rather than

   hi
        there

$$ is associative, with identity empty, and also satisfies

(x $$ y) <> z = x $$ (y <> z), if y non-empty.

($+$) :: Doc -> Doc -> Doc infixl 5 Source

Above, with no overlapping. $+$ is associative, with identity empty.

vcat :: [Doc] -> Doc Source

List version of $$.

sep :: [Doc] -> Doc Source

Either hsep or vcat.

cat :: [Doc] -> Doc Source

Either hcat or vcat.

fsep :: [Doc] -> Doc Source

"Paragraph fill" version of sep.

fcat :: [Doc] -> Doc Source

"Paragraph fill" version of cat.

nest :: Int -> Doc -> Doc Source

Nest (or indent) a document by a given number of positions (which may also be negative). nest satisfies the laws:

```
nest 0 x = x
```
```
nest k (nest k' x) = nest (k+k') x
```
```
nest k (x <> y) = nest k z <> nest k y
```
```
nest k (x $$ y) = nest k x $$ nest k y
```
```
nest k empty = empty
```
x <> nest k y = x <> y, if x non-empty

The side condition on the last law is needed because empty is a left identity for <>.

hang :: Doc -> Int -> Doc -> Doc Source

hang d1 n d2 = sep [d1, nest n d2]

punctuate :: Doc -> [Doc] -> [Doc] Source

punctuate p [d1, ... dn] = [d1 <> p, d2 <> p, ... dn-1 <> p, dn]

Predicates on documents

isEmpty :: Doc -> Bool Source

Returns True if the document is empty
