Description

Compact pretty-printer.

Examples

Assume that we want to pretty print S-Expressions, which can either be atom or a list of S-Expressions.

>>> data SExpr = SExpr [SExpr] | Atom String deriving Show
>>> let pretty :: SExpr -> Doc (); pretty (Atom s) = text s; pretty (SExpr xs) = text "(" <> (sep $ map pretty xs) <> text ")"

Using the above representation, the S-Expression (a b c d) has the following encoding:

>>> let abcd = SExpr [Atom "a",Atom "b",Atom "c",Atom "d"]

The legible layouts of the abcd S-Expression defined above would be either

>>> putStrLn $ render $ pretty abcd
(a b c d)

or

>>> putStrLn $ renderWith defaultOptions { optsPageWidth = 5 } $ pretty abcd
(a
 b
 c
 d)

The testData S-Expression is specially crafted to demonstrate general shortcomings of both Hughes and Wadler libraries.

>>> let abcd4 = SExpr [abcd,abcd,abcd,abcd]
>>> let testData = SExpr [ SExpr [Atom "abcde", abcd4], SExpr [Atom "abcdefgh", abcd4]]
>>> putStrLn $ render $ pretty testData
((abcde ((a b c d) (a b c d) (a b c d) (a b c d)))
 (abcdefgh ((a b c d) (a b c d) (a b c d) (a b c d))))

on 20-column-wide page

>>> putStrLn $ renderWith defaultOptions { optsPageWidth = 20 } $ pretty testData
((abcde ((a b c d)
         (a b c d)
         (a b c d)
         (a b c d)))
 (abcdefgh
  ((a b c d)
   (a b c d)
   (a b c d)
   (a b c d))))

Yet, neither Hughes' nor Wadler's library can deliver those results.

Annotations

For example we can annotate every car element of S-Expressions, and in the rendering phase emphasise them by rendering them in uppercase.

>>> let pretty' :: SExpr -> Doc Any; pretty' (Atom s) = text s; pretty' (SExpr []) = text "()"; pretty' (SExpr (x:xs)) = text "(" <> (sep $ annotate (Any True) (pretty' x) : map pretty' xs) <> text ")"
>>> let render' = renderWith defaultOptions { optsAnnotate  = \a x -> if a == Any True then map toUpper x else x }
>>> putStrLn $ render' $ pretty' testData
((ABCDE ((A B C D) (A B C D) (A B C D) (A B C D)))
 (ABCDEFGH ((A B C D) (A b c d) (A b c d) (A b c d))))

Synopsis

Documents

type Doc = DDoc Source #

Basic combinators

text :: (Layout d, Monoid a) => String -> d a Source #

flush :: (Layout d, Monoid a) => d a -> d a Source #

hang :: Annotation a => Int -> Doc a -> Doc a -> Doc a Source #

The hang combinator implements hanging indentation. The document (hang i x) renders document x with a nesting level set to the current column plus i. The following example uses hanging indentation for some text:

test  = hang 4 (fillSep (map text
        (words "the hang combinator indents these words !")))

Which lays out on a page with a width of 20 characters as:

the hang combinator
    indents these
    words !

The hang combinator is implemented as:

hang i x  = align (nest i x)

encloseSep :: Annotation a => Doc a -> Doc a -> Doc a -> [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (enclosure l r sep xs) concatenates the documents xs separated by sep and encloses the resulting document by l and r. The documents are rendered horizontally if that fits the page. Otherwise they are aligned vertically. All separators are put in front of the elements. For example, the combinator list can be defined with enclosure:

list xs = enclosure lbracket rbracket comma xs
test    = text "list" <+> (list (map int [10,200,3000]))

Which is layed out with a page width of 20 as:

list [10,200,3000]

But when the page width is 15, it is layed out as:

list [10
     ,200
     ,3000]

list :: Annotation a => [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (list xs) comma separates the documents xs and encloses them in square brackets. The documents are rendered horizontally if that fits the page. Otherwise they are aligned vertically. All comma separators are put in front of the elements.

tupled :: Annotation a => [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (tupled xs) comma separates the documents xs and encloses them in parenthesis. The documents are rendered horizontally if that fits the page. Otherwise they are aligned vertically. All comma separators are put in front of the elements.

semiBraces :: Annotation a => [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (semiBraces xs) separates the documents xs with semi colons and encloses them in braces. The documents are rendered horizontally if that fits the page. Otherwise they are aligned vertically. All semi colons are put in front of the elements.

Operators

(<+>) :: Annotation a => Doc a -> Doc a -> Doc a Source #

The document (x <+> y) concatenates document x and y with a space in between. (infixr 6)

($$) :: Annotation a => Doc a -> Doc a -> Doc a Source #

The document (x <$$> y) concatenates document x and y with a linebreak in between. (infixr 5)

(</>) :: Annotation a => Doc a -> Doc a -> Doc a Source #

The document (x </> y) puts x and y either next to each other (with a space in between) if x fits on a single line, or underneath each other. (infixr 5)

(<//>) :: Annotation a => Doc a -> Doc a -> Doc a Source #

The document (x <//> y) puts x and y either right next to each other (if x fits on a single line) or underneath each other. (infixr 5)

(<$$>) :: Annotation a => Doc a -> Doc a -> Doc a Source #

The document (x <$$> y) concatenates document x and y with a linebreak in between. (infixr 5)

(<|>) :: (Document d, Eq a) => d a -> d a -> d a Source #

List combinators

hsep :: Annotation a => [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (hsep xs) concatenates all documents xs horizontally with (<+>).

sep :: Annotation a => [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (sep xs) concatenates all documents xs either horizontally with (<+>), if it fits the page, or vertically with (<$>).

hcat :: Annotation a => [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (hcat xs) concatenates all documents xs horizontally with (<->).

vcat :: Annotation a => [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (vcat xs) concatenates all documents xs vertically with ($$).

cat :: Annotation a => [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (cat xs) concatenates all documents xs either horizontally with (<>), if it fits the page, or vertically with (<$$>).

cat xs  = group (vcat xs)

punctuate :: Annotation a => Doc a -> [Doc a] -> [Doc a] Source #

(punctuate p xs) concatenates all documents in xs with document p except for the last document.

someText = map text ["words","in","a","tuple"]
test     = parens (align (cat (punctuate comma someText)))

This is layed out on a page width of 20 as:

(words,in,a,tuple)

But when the page width is 15, it is layed out as:

(words,
 in,
 a,
 tuple)

(If you want put the commas in front of their elements instead of at the end, you should use tupled or, in general, encloseSep.)

Fill combiantors

fillSep :: Annotation a => [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (fillSep xs) concatenates documents xs horizontally with (<+>) as long as its fits the page, than inserts a line and continues doing that for all documents in xs.

fillSep xs  = foldr (\<\/\>) empty xs

fillCat :: Annotation a => [Doc a] -> Doc a Source #

The document (fillCat xs) concatenates documents xs horizontally with (<>) as long as its fits the page, than inserts a linebreak and continues doing that for all documents in xs.

fillCat xs  = foldr (\<\/\/\>) empty xs
