Generics.SOP.Metadata

Metadata about what a datatype looks like

In generics-sop, the metadata is completely independent of the main universe. Many generic functions will use this metadata, but other don't, and yet others might need completely different metadata.

This module defines a datatype to represent standard metadata, i.e., names of the datatype, its constructors, and possibly its record selectors. Metadata descriptions are in general GADTs indexed by the code of the datatype they're associated with, so matching on the metadata will reveal information about the shape of the datatype.

Documentation

data DatatypeInfo :: [[*]] -> * where

Metadata for a datatype.

A value of type DatatypeInfo c contains the information about a datatype that is not contained in Code c. This information consists primarily of the names of the datatype, its constructors, and possibly its record selectors.

The constructor indicates whether the datatype has been declared using newtype or not.

Constructors

ADT :: ModuleName -> DatatypeName -> NP ConstructorInfo xss -> DatatypeInfo xss

Newtype :: ModuleName -> DatatypeName -> ConstructorInfo `[x]` -> DatatypeInfo `[`[x]`]`

Instances

All [*] (Compose * [*] Eq ConstructorInfo) xs => Eq (DatatypeInfo xs)

(All [*] (Compose * [*] Eq ConstructorInfo) xs, All [*] (Compose * [*] Ord ConstructorInfo) xs) => Ord (DatatypeInfo xs)

All [*] (Compose * [*] Show ConstructorInfo) xs => Show (DatatypeInfo xs)

data ConstructorInfo :: [*] -> * where

Metadata for a single constructors.

This is indexed by the product structure of the constructor components.

Constructors

Constructor :: SListI xs => ConstructorName -> ConstructorInfo xs

Infix :: ConstructorName -> Associativity -> Fixity -> ConstructorInfo `[x, y]`

Record :: SListI xs => ConstructorName -> NP FieldInfo xs -> ConstructorInfo xs

Instances

All * (Compose * * Eq FieldInfo) xs => Eq (ConstructorInfo xs)

(All * (Compose * * Eq FieldInfo) xs, All * (Compose * * Ord FieldInfo) xs) => Ord (ConstructorInfo xs)

data FieldInfo :: * -> * where

For records, this functor maps the component to its selector name.
