Network.XmlRpc.Internals
Description
This module contains the core functionality of the XML-RPC library. Most applications should not need to use this module. Client applications should use Network.XmlRpc.Client and server applications should use Network.XmlRpc.Server.
The XML-RPC specifcation is available at http://www.xmlrpc.com/spec.

Method calls and repsonses
data MethodCall Source
An XML-RPC method call. Consists of a method name and a list of parameters.
Constructors
| MethodCall String [Value] |
Instances
XML-RPC types
An XML-RPC value.
Constructors
| ValueInt Int | int or i4 |
| ValueBool Bool | bool |
| ValueString String | string |
| ValueDouble Double | double |
| ValueDateTime LocalTime | dateTime.iso8601 |
| ValueBase64 String | base 64 |
| ValueStruct [(String, Value)] | struct |
| ValueArray [Value] | array |
An XML-RPC value. Use for error messages and introspection.
class XmlRpcType a whereSource
A class for mapping Haskell types to XML-RPC types.
Methods
Convert from this type to a Value
fromValue :: Monad m => Value -> Err m aSource
Convert from a Value to this type. May fail if
if there is a type error.
Instances
| XmlRpcType Bool | |
| XmlRpcType Double | |
| XmlRpcType Int | |
| XmlRpcType String | |
| XmlRpcType CalendarTime | |
| XmlRpcType LocalTime | |
| XmlRpcType Value | Exists to allow explicit type conversions. |
| XmlRpcType a => XmlRpcType [(String, a)] | |
| XmlRpcType a => XmlRpcType [a] |
Converting from XML
parseResponse :: Monad m => String -> Err m MethodResponseSource
Parses a method response from XML.
Get a field value from a (possibly heterogeneous) struct.
Arguments
| :: (Monad m, XmlRpcType a) | |
| => String | Field name |
| -> [(String, Value)] | Struct |
| -> Err m (Maybe a) |
Get a field value from a (possibly heterogeneous) struct.
Converting to XML
renderCall :: MethodCall -> StringSource
Makes an XML-representation of a method call. FIXME: pretty prints ugly XML
renderResponse :: MethodResponse -> StringSource
Makes an XML-representation of a method response. FIXME: pretty prints ugly XML
Error monad
Arguments
| :: Monad m | |
| => String | Error message to fail with for |
| -> Maybe a | The |
| -> m a | The resulting value in the monad. |
Convert a Maybe value to a value in any monad
handleError :: Monad m => (String -> m a) -> Err m a -> m aSource
Handle errors from the error monad.
ioErrorToErr :: IO a -> Err IO aSource
Catch IO errors in the error monad.
