haskell-src-exts-qq: quasiquote Haskell
Write programs that generate Haskell programs much more concisely and legibly. This package supports:
- Antiquotations, denoted by stealing the splice syntax of Template
Haskell, for example:
[hs| $x ++ $(Hs.strE "bar") |]
Splices may not nested.
-
Antiquoting pattern variables in patterns, using double parentheses. For instance:
let x = Hs.name "n" in [hs| \ ((x)) -> $(Hs.Var (Hs.UnQual x)) + 1 |]
-
Antiquoting bound names. Names that are antiquoted appear surrounded by double underscores. For instance:
let f = "incr" fE = Hs.Var $ Hs.UnQual $ Hs.name f in [hs| let __f__ x = x + 1 in $fE 10 |]
We need three different syntaxes for antiquotations, because we do not extend the haskell-src-exts parser in any way and the Template Haskell splicing syntax is only available in expression contexts.
