| -> m () | Report an error (True) or warning (False) ...but carry on; use |
Arguments

| -> m a | Recover from the monadic |
qLookupName :: Bool -> String -> m (Maybe Name) Source #
qReify :: Name -> m Info Source #
qReifyFixity :: Name -> m (Maybe Fixity) Source #
qReifyInstances :: Name -> [Type] -> m [Dec] Source #
qReifyRoles :: Name -> m [Role] Source #
qReifyAnnotations :: Data a => AnnLookup -> m [a] Source #
qReifyModule :: Module -> m ModuleInfo Source #
qReifyConStrictness :: Name -> m [DecidedStrictness] Source #
qRunIO :: IO a -> m a Source #
Input/output (dangerous)
qAddDependentFile :: FilePath -> m () Source #
qAddTopDecls :: [Dec] -> m () Source #
qAddForeignFile :: ForeignSrcLang -> String -> m () Source #
qAddModFinalizer :: Q () -> m () Source #
qGetQ :: Typeable a => m (Maybe a) Source #
qPutQ :: Typeable a => a -> m () Source #
qIsExtEnabled :: Extension -> m Bool Source #
qExtsEnabled :: m [Extension] Source #
newName :: String -> Q Name Source #
Generate a fresh name, which cannot be captured.
For example, this:
f = $(do nm1 <- newName "x" let nm2 =mkName"x" return (LamE[VarPnm1] (LamE [VarP nm2] (VarEnm1))) )
will produce the splice
f = \x0 -> \x -> x0
In particular, the occurrence VarE nm1 refers to the binding VarP nm1, and is not captured by the binding VarP nm2.
Although names generated by newName cannot be captured, they can capture other names. For example, this:
g = $(do nm1 <- newName "x" let nm2 = mkName "x" return (LamE [VarP nm2] (LamE [VarP nm1] (VarE nm2))) )
will produce the splice
g = \x -> \x0 -> x0
since the occurrence VarE nm2 is captured by the innermost binding of x, namely VarP nm1.
report :: Bool -> String -> Q () Source #
Deprecated: Use reportError or reportWarning instead
Report an error (True) or warning (False), but carry on; use fail to stop.
reportError :: String -> Q () Source #
Report an error to the user, but allow the current splice's computation to carry on. To abort the computation, use fail.
reportWarning :: String -> Q () Source #
Report a warning to the user, and carry on.
Recover from errors raised by reportError or fail.
lookupTypeName :: String -> Q (Maybe Name) Source #
Look up the given name in the (type namespace of the) current splice's scope. See Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax for more details.
lookupValueName :: String -> Q (Maybe Name) Source #
Look up the given name in the (value namespace of the) current splice's scope. See Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax for more details.
The functions lookupTypeName and lookupValueName provide a way to query the current splice's context for what names are in scope. The function lookupTypeName queries the type namespace, whereas lookupValueName queries the value namespace, but the functions are otherwise identical.
A call lookupValueName s will check if there is a value with name s in scope at the current splice's location. If there is, the Name of this value is returned; if not, then Nothing is returned.
The returned name cannot be "captured". For example:
f = "global" g = $( do Just nm <- lookupValueName "f" [| let f = "local" in $( varE nm ) |]
In this case, g = "global"; the call to lookupValueName returned the global f, and this name was not captured by the local definition of f.
The lookup is performed in the context of the top-level splice being run. For example:
f = "global" g = $( [| let f = "local" in $(do Just nm <- lookupValueName "f" varE nm ) |] )
Again in this example, g = "global", because the call to lookupValueName queries the context of the outer-most $(...).
Operators should be queried without any surrounding parentheses, like so:
lookupValueName "+"
Qualified names are also supported, like so:
lookupValueName "Prelude.+" lookupValueName "Prelude.map"
reify :: Name -> Q Info Source #
reify looks up information about the Name.
It is sometimes useful to construct the argument name using lookupTypeName or lookupValueName to ensure that we are reifying from the right namespace. For instance, in this context:
data D = D
which D does reify (mkName "D") return information about? (Answer: D-the-type, but don't rely on it.) To ensure we get information about D-the-value, use lookupValueName:
do Just nm <- lookupValueName "D" reify nm
and to get information about D-the-type, use lookupTypeName.
reifyFixity :: Name -> Q (Maybe Fixity) Source #
reifyFixity nm attempts to find a fixity declaration for nm. For example, if the function foo has the fixity declaration infixr 7 foo, then reifyFixity 'foo would return . If the function Just (Fixity 7 InfixR)bar does not have a fixity declaration, then reifyFixity 'bar returns Nothing, so you may assume bar has defaultFixity.
reifyInstances :: Name -> [Type] -> Q [InstanceDec] Source #
reifyInstances nm tys returns a list of visible instances of nm tys. That is, if nm is the name of a type class, then all instances of this class at the types tys are returned. Alternatively, if nm is the name of a data family or type family, all instances of this family at the types tys are returned.
reifyRoles :: Name -> Q [Role] Source #
reifyRoles nm returns the list of roles associated with the parameters of the tycon nm. Fails if nm cannot be found or is not a tycon. The returned list should never contain InferR.
reifyAnnotations :: Data a => AnnLookup -> Q [a] Source #
reifyAnnotations target returns the list of annotations associated with target. Only the annotations that are appropriately typed is returned. So if you have Int and String annotations for the same target, you have to call this function twice.
reifyModule :: Module -> Q ModuleInfo Source #
reifyModule mod looks up information about module mod. To look up the current module, call this function with the return value of thisModule.
reifyConStrictness :: Name -> Q [DecidedStrictness] Source #
reifyConStrictness nm looks up the strictness information for the fields of the constructor with the name nm. Note that the strictness information that reifyConStrictness returns may not correspond to what is written in the source code. For example, in the following data declaration:
data Pair a = Pair a a
reifyConStrictness would return [ under most circumstances, but it would return DecidedLazy, DecidedLazy][ if the DecidedStrict, DecidedStrict]-XStrictData language extension was enabled.
isInstance :: Name -> [Type] -> Q Bool Source #
Is the list of instances returned by reifyInstances nonempty?
The runIO function lets you run an I/O computation in the Q monad. Take care: you are guaranteed the ordering of calls to runIO within a single Q computation, but not about the order in which splices are run.
Note: for various murky reasons, stdout and stderr handles are not necessarily flushed when the compiler finishes running, so you should flush them yourself.
addDependentFile :: FilePath -> Q () Source #
Record external files that runIO is using (dependent upon). The compiler can then recognize that it should re-compile the Haskell file when an external file changes.
Expects an absolute file path.
Notes:
- ghc -M does not know about these dependencies - it does not execute TH.
- The dependency is based on file content, not a modification time
addTopDecls :: [Dec] -> Q () Source #
Add additional top-level declarations. The added declarations will be type checked along with the current declaration group.
addForeignFile :: ForeignSrcLang -> String -> Q () Source #
Emit a foreign file which will be compiled and linked to the object for the current module. Currently only languages that can be compiled with the C compiler are supported, and the flags passed as part of -optc will be also applied to the C compiler invocation that will compile them.
Note that for non-C languages (for example C++) extern C directives must be used to get symbols that we can access from Haskell.
To get better errors, it is reccomended to use #line pragmas when emitting C files, e.g.
{-# LANGUAGE CPP #-} ... addForeignFile LangC $ unlines [ "#line " ++ show (478 + 1) ++ " " ++ show "Language/Haskell/TH/Syntax.hs" , ... ]addModFinalizer :: Q () -> Q () Source #
Add a finalizer that will run in the Q monad after the current module has been type checked. This only makes sense when run within a top-level splice.
The finalizer is given the local type environment at the splice point. Thus reify is able to find the local definitions when executed inside the finalizer.
getQ :: Typeable a => Q (Maybe a) Source #
Get state from the Q monad. Note that the state is local to the Haskell module in which the Template Haskell expression is executed.
putQ :: Typeable a => a -> Q () Source #
Replace the state in the Q monad. Note that the state is local to the Haskell module in which the Template Haskell expression is executed.
isExtEnabled :: Extension -> Q Bool Source #
Determine whether the given language extension is enabled in the Q monad.
extsEnabled :: Q [Extension] Source #
List all enabled language extensions.
A Lift instance can have any of its values turned into a Template Haskell expression. This is needed when a value used within a Template Haskell quotation is bound outside the Oxford brackets ([| ... |]) but not at the top level. As an example:
add1 :: Int -> Q Exp add1 x = [| x + 1 |]
Template Haskell has no way of knowing what value x will take on at splice-time, so it requires the type of x to be an instance of Lift.
Lift instances can be derived automatically by use of the -XDeriveLift GHC language extension:
{-# LANGUAGE DeriveLift #-} module Foo where import Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax data Bar a = Bar1 a (Bar a) | Bar2 String deriving LiftMethods
Turn a value into a Template Haskell expression, suitable for use in a splice.
lift :: Data t => t -> Q Exp Source #
Turn a value into a Template Haskell expression, suitable for use in a splice.

dataToQa :: forall a k q. Data a => (Name -> k) -> (Lit -> Q q) -> (k -> [Q q] -> Q q) -> (forall b. Data b => b -> Maybe (Q q)) -> a -> Q q Source #
dataToQa is an internal utility function for constructing generic conversion functions from types with Data instances to various quasi-quoting representations. See the source of dataToExpQ and dataToPatQ for two example usages: mkCon, mkLit and appQ are overloadable to account for different syntax for expressions and patterns; antiQ allows you to override type-specific cases, a common usage is just const Nothing, which results in no overloading.
dataToExpQ :: Data a => (forall b. Data b => b -> Maybe (Q Exp)) -> a -> Q Exp Source #
dataToExpQ converts a value to a 'Q Exp' representation of the same value, in the SYB style. It is generalized to take a function override type-specific cases; see liftData for a more commonly used variant.
dataToPatQ :: Data a => (forall b. Data b => b -> Maybe (Q Pat)) -> a -> Q Pat Source #
dataToPatQ converts a value to a 'Q Pat' representation of the same value, in the SYB style. It takes a function to handle type-specific cases, alternatively, pass const Nothing to get default behavior.
Obtained from reifyModule and thisModule.
Much of Name API is concerned with the problem of name capture, which can be seen in the following example.
f expr = [| let x = 0 in $expr |] ... g x = $( f [| x |] ) h y = $( f [| y |] )
A naive desugaring of this would yield:
g x = let x = 0 in x h y = let x = 0 in y
All of a sudden, g and h have different meanings! In this case, we say that the x in the RHS of g has been captured by the binding of x in f.
What we actually want is for the x in f to be distinct from the x in g, so we get the following desugaring:
g x = let x' = 0 in x h y = let x' = 0 in y
which avoids name capture as desired.
In the general case, we say that a Name can be captured if the thing it refers to can be changed by adding new declarations.
An abstract type representing names in the syntax tree.
Names can be constructed in several ways, which come with different name-capture guarantees (see Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax for an explanation of name capture):
- the built-in syntax
'fand''Tcan be used to construct names, The expression'fgives aNamewhich refers to the valuefcurrently in scope, and''Tgives aNamewhich refers to the typeTcurrently in scope. These names can never be captured. lookupValueNameandlookupTypeNameare similar to'fand''Trespectively, but theNames are looked up at the point where the current splice is being run. These names can never be captured.newNamemonadically generates a new name, which can never be captured.mkNamegenerates a capturable name.
Names constructed using newName and mkName may be used in bindings (such as let x = ... or x -> ...), but names constructed using lookupValueName, lookupTypeName, 'f, ''T may not.

nameSpace :: Name -> Maybe NameSpace Source #
Returns whether a name represents an occurrence of a top-level variable (VarName), data constructor (DataName), type constructor, or type class (TcClsName). If we can't be sure, it returns Nothing.
Examples
>>>nameSpace 'Prelude.idJust VarName>>>nameSpace (mkName "id")Nothing -- only works for top-level variable names>>>nameSpace 'Data.Maybe.JustJust DataName>>>nameSpace ''Data.Maybe.MaybeJust TcClsName>>>nameSpace ''Data.Ord.OrdJust TcClsName
mkName :: String -> Name Source #
Generate a capturable name. Occurrences of such names will be resolved according to the Haskell scoping rules at the occurrence site.
For example:

In this case, g is desugared to
g = Prelude.pi + 3
Note that mkName may be used with qualified names:
mkName "Prelude.pi"
See also dyn for a useful combinator. The above example could be rewritten using dyn as
f = [| pi + $(dyn "pi") |]

Default fixity: infixl 9
When implementing antiquotation for quasiquoters, one often wants to parse strings into expressions:
parse :: String -> Maybe Exp
But how should we parse a + b * c? If we don't know the fixities of + and *, we don't know whether to parse it as a + (b * c) or (a + b) * c.
In cases like this, use UInfixE, UInfixP, or UInfixT, which stand for "unresolved infix expressionpatterntype", respectively. When the compiler is given a splice containing a tree of UInfixE applications such as
UInfixE (UInfixE e1 op1 e2) op2 (UInfixE e3 op3 e4)
it will look up and the fixities of the relevant operators and reassociate the tree as necessary.
- trees will not be reassociated across
ParensE,ParensP, orParensT, which are of use for parsing expressions like
(a + b * c) + d * e
InfixE,InfixP, andInfixTexpressions are never reassociated.- The
UInfixEconstructor doesn't support sections. Sections such as(a *)have no ambiguity, soInfixEsuffices. For longer sections such as(a + b * c -), use anInfixEconstructor for the outer-most section, and useUInfixEconstructors for all other operators:
InfixE Just (UInfixE ...a + b * c...) op Nothing
Sections such as (a + b +) and ((a + b) +) should be rendered into Exps differently:
(+ a + b) ---> InfixE Nothing + (Just $ UInfixE a + b) -- will result in a fixity error if (+) is left-infix (+ (a + b)) ---> InfixE Nothing + (Just $ ParensE $ UInfixE a + b) -- no fixity errors
- Quoted expressions such as
[| a * b + c |] :: Q Exp [p| a : b : c |] :: Q Pat [t| T + T |] :: Q Type
will never contain UInfixE, UInfixP, UInfixT, InfixT, ParensE, ParensP, or ParensT constructors.

type PatSynType = Type Source #
A Pattern synonym's type. Note that a pattern synonym's *fully* specified type has a peculiar shape coming with two forall quantifiers and two constraint contexts. For example, consider the pattern synonym
pattern P x1 x2 ... xn = some-pattern
P's complete type is of the following form
forall universals. required constraints => forall existentials. provided constraints => t1 -> t2 -> ... -> tn -> t
consisting of four parts:
1) the (possibly empty lists of) universally quantified type variables and required constraints on them. 2) the (possibly empty lists of) existentially quantified type variables and the provided constraints on them. 3) the types t1, t2, .., tn of x1, x2, .., xn, respectively 4) the type t of some-pattern, mentioning only universals.
Pattern synonym types interact with TH when (a) reifying a pattern synonym, (b) pretty printing, or (c) specifying a pattern synonym's type signature explicitly:
(a) Reification always returns a pattern synonym's *fully* specified type in abstract syntax.
(b) Pretty printing via pprPatSynType abbreviates a pattern synonym's type unambiguously in concrete syntax: The rule of thumb is to print initial empty universals and the required context as `() =>`, if existentials and a provided context follow. If only universals and their required context, but no existentials are specified, only the universals and their required context are printed. If both or none are specified, so both (or none) are printed.
(c) When specifying a pattern synonym's type explicitly with PatSynSigD either one of the universals, the existentials, or their contexts may be left empty.

To avoid duplication between kinds and types, they are defined to be the same. Naturally, you would never have a type be StarT and you would never have a kind be SigT, but many of the other constructors are shared. Note that the kind Bool is denoted with ConT, not PromotedT. Similarly, tuple kinds are made with TupleT, not PromotedTupleT.
