Package descriptions

Description

This defined parsers and partial pretty printers for the .cabal format. Some of the complexity in this module is due to the fact that we have to be backwards compatible with old .cabal files, so there's code to translate into the newer structure.

Synopsis

Package descriptions

readGenericPackageDescription :: Verbosity -> FilePath -> IO GenericPackageDescription #

Parse the given package file.

parseGenericPackageDescription :: String -> ParseResult GenericPackageDescription #

Parses the given file into a GenericPackageDescription.

In Cabal 1.2 the syntax for package descriptions was changed to a format with sections and possibly indented property descriptions.

Deprecated names

readPackageDescription :: Verbosity -> FilePath -> IO GenericPackageDescription #

Deprecated: Use readGenericPackageDescription, old name is misleading.

parsePackageDescription :: String -> ParseResult GenericPackageDescription #

Deprecated: Use parseGenericPackageDescription, old name is misleading

data FieldDescr a #

Field descriptor. The parameter a parameterizes over where the field's value is stored in.

Constructors

FieldDescr
Fields fieldName :: String fieldGet :: a -> Doc fieldSet :: LineNo -> String -> a -> ParseResult a `fieldSet n str x` Parses the field value from the given input string `str` and stores the result in `x` if the parse was successful. Otherwise, reports an error on line number `n`.

type LineNo = Int #

Private, but needed for pretty-printer

data TestSuiteStanza #

An intermediate type just used for parsing the test-suite stanza. After validation it is converted into the proper TestSuite type.

Constructors

TestSuiteStanza
Fields testStanzaTestType :: Maybe TestType testStanzaMainIs :: Maybe FilePath testStanzaTestModule :: Maybe ModuleName testStanzaBuildInfo :: BuildInfo

data BenchmarkStanza #

An intermediate type just used for parsing the benchmark stanza. After validation it is converted into the proper Benchmark type.

Constructors

BenchmarkStanza
Fields benchmarkStanzaBenchmarkType :: Maybe BenchmarkType benchmarkStanzaMainIs :: Maybe FilePath benchmarkStanzaBenchmarkModule :: Maybe ModuleName benchmarkStanzaBuildInfo :: BuildInfo
