System.IO.Encoding

Description

This module provides a replacement for the normal (unicode unaware) IO functions of haskell. By using implicit parameters, it can be used almost as a drop-in replacement. For example, consider the following simple echo program:

main = do str <- getContents putStr str

To make this program process UTF-8 data, change the program to:

{-# LANGUAGE ImplicitParams #-} import Prelude hiding (getContents,putStr) import System.IO.Encoding import Data.Encoding.UTF8 main = do let ?enc = UTF8 str <- getContents putStr str

Or, if you want to use the standard system encoding:

{-# LANGUAGE ImplicitParams #-} import Prelude hiding (getContents,putStr) import System.IO.Encoding main = do e <- getSystemEncoding let ?enc = e str <- getContents putStr str
Synopsis

Documentation

getSystemEncoding :: IO (Maybe DynEncoding) Source #

On unix machines, returns the system's currently configured text encoding, or Nothing if there was an error. On Windows, currently always returns Nothing.

getContents :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => IO String Source #

putStr :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => String -> IO () Source #

putStrLn :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => String -> IO () Source #

hPutStr :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => Handle -> String -> IO () Source #

Like the normal hPutStr, but encodes the output using an encoding.

hPutStrLn :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => Handle -> String -> IO () Source #

hGetContents :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => Handle -> IO String Source #

Like the normal hGetContents, but decodes the input using an encoding.

readFile :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => FilePath -> IO String Source #

writeFile :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => FilePath -> String -> IO () Source #

appendFile :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => FilePath -> String -> IO () Source #

getChar :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => IO Char Source #

hGetChar :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => Handle -> IO Char Source #

getLine :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => IO String Source #

hGetLine :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => Handle -> IO String Source #

putChar :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => Char -> IO () Source #

hPutChar :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => Handle -> Char -> IO () Source #

interact :: (Encoding e, ?enc :: e) => (String -> String) -> IO () Source #

print :: (Encoding e, Show a, ?enc :: e) => a -> IO () Source #

hPrint :: (Encoding e, Show a, ?enc :: e) => Handle -> a -> IO () Source #
