sexp

S-Expression parsing/printing made fun and easy

What

sexp provides an S-expression data-type, and printers and parsers that work on all data-types that have Typeable and Data instances.

λ > import Language.Sexp

λ > data MyType = Foo { unFoo :: Int } deriving ( Data, Show, Typeable )

λ > instance Sexpable MyType

λ > toSexp (Foo 23)
List [Atom "Foo",List [Atom "unFoo",Atom "23"]]

λ > printMach (toSexp (Foo 23))
"(Foo (unFoo 23))"

λ > parseExn (printMach (toSexp (Foo 23)))
[List [Atom "Foo",List [Atom "unFoo",Atom "23"]]]

λ > fromSexp (head (parseExn (printMach (toSexp (Foo 23))))) :: Maybe MyType
Just (Foo {unFoo = 23})
