Implement (partial) postgis functionality for esqueleto. https://postgis.net/

uses wkt-geom to get a persistent instance, then maps that to a custom datatype 'PostgisGeometry' which is valid for roundtripping.

Then the esqueleto combinators are defined around this datatype.

Tutorial

Make sure to enable to postgis extension on your database (it's activated per database):

CREATE EXTENSION postgis;

you can specify some posgis geometry, use the point to nidicate dimensions, pointxy = 2 dimensions pointxyz = 3, pointxyzm = 4. The library forces you to work in the same dimensions.

You can specify a table with the custom datatype, which will have geometry as sql type:

share
  [mkPersist sqlSettings, mkMigrate "migrateAll"]
  [persistUpperCase|
  Unit sql=unit
    geom       (PostgisGeometry PointXY)
    deriving Eq Show
|]

then you can simply query on tat datatype:

test = testCase ("it finds the one unit with st_contains") $ do
            result <- runDB $ do
              _ <- insert $
                Unit
                  { unitGeom = Polygon $ makePolygon (PointXY 0 0) (PointXY 0 2) (PointXY 2 2) $ Seq.fromList [(PointXY 2 0)]
                  }

              selectOne $ do
                unit <- from $ table @Unit
                where_ $ unit ^. UnitGeom `st_contains` (val $ Point (PointXY 1 1))
                pure countRows

            -- expectation, the result should be 1
            unValue <$> result @?= (Just (1 :: Int)),
