regular-web: Generic programming for the web

This package implements generic functions for web programming. Based on the regular library [1], we provide generic functions for generating HTML, Formlets, and JSON. For a larger example, see the Example.lhs [2] file on github.

Example

Consider the following datatypes:

data Person = Person { _name :: String , _age :: Int , _isMale :: Bool , _place :: Place } data Place = Place { _city :: String , _country :: String , _continent :: String }

We can now derive a Regular instance for the Person datatype using Template Haskell:

$(deriveAll ''Place "PFPlace") $(deriveAll ''Person "PFPerson")

 type instance PF Place = PFPlace type instance PF Person = PFPerson

We can construct an example person:

location :: Place location = Place "Utrecht" "The Netherlands" "Europe" chris :: Person chris = Person "chris" 25 True location

And, as an example, we can generate |HTML| and |JSON| values:

locationHtml :: X.Html locationHtml = ghtml location

personHtml :: X.Html personHtml = ghtml chris

locationJSON :: JSValue locationJSON = gto location
