Description

Writes and Builders for serializing Unicode characters using the UTF-8 encoding.

Synopsis

Writing UTF-8 encoded characters to a buffer

writeChar :: Char -> Write Source

Write a UTF-8 encoded Unicode character to a buffer.

Creating Builders from UTF-8 encoded characters

fromChar :: Char -> Builder Source

O(1). Serialize a Unicode character using the UTF-8 encoding.

fromString :: String -> Builder Source

O(n). Serialize a Unicode String using the UTF-8 encoding.

fromShow :: Show a => a -> Builder Source

O(n). Serialize a value by Showing it and UTF-8 encoding the resulting String.

fromText :: Text -> Builder Source

O(n). Serialize a strict Unicode Text value using the UTF-8 encoding.

Note that this function is currently faster than encodeUtf8 provided by Data.Text.Encoding. Moreover, fromText is also lazy, while TL.encodeUtf8 is strict.

fromLazyText :: Text -> Builder Source

O(n). Serialize a lazy Unicode Text value using the UTF-8 encoding.

Note that this function is currently faster than TL.encodeUtf8 provided by Data.Text.Lazy.Encoding.
