Description

Template Haskell supports quasiquoting, which permits users to construct program fragments by directly writing concrete syntax. A quasiquoter is essentially a function with takes a string to a Template Haskell AST. This module defines the QuasiQuoter datatype, which specifies a quasiquoter q which can be invoked using the syntax [q| ... string to parse ... |] when the QuasiQuotes language extension is enabled, and some utility functions for manipulating quasiquoters. Nota bene: this package does not define any parsers, that is up to you.

Fields

quoteFile :: QuasiQuoter -> QuasiQuoter Source #

quoteFile takes a QuasiQuoter and lifts it into one that read the data out of a file. For example, suppose asmq is an assembly-language quoter, so that you can write [asmq| ld r1, r2 |] as an expression. Then if you define asmq_f = quoteFile asmq, then the quote [asmq_f|foo.s|] will take input from file "foo.s" instead of the inline text
