Data.BEncode.Types

Types for working with bencode data.

Types

type BInteger = Integer

A bencode integer.

type BString = ByteString

A raw bencode string.

type BList = [BValue]

A plain bencode list.

type BDict = BDictMap BValue

A bencode dictionary.

data BValue

BValue is straightforward ADT for b-encoded values. Please note that since dictionaries are sorted, in most cases we can compare BEncoded values without serialization and vice versa. Lists is not required to be sorted through.

Constructors

BInteger !BInteger

bencode integers;

BString !BString

bencode strings;

BList BList

list of bencode values;

BDict BDict

bencode key-value dictionary.

Instances

Eq BValue

Ord BValue

Read BValue

BEncode BDict

Predicates

isString :: BValue -> Bool

Test if bencoded value is a string, both raw and utf8 encoded.

isList :: BValue -> Bool

Test if bencoded value is a list.

isDict :: BValue -> Bool
