Documentation
hlint :: [String] -> IO [Idea] Source #
This function takes a list of command line arguments, and returns the given hints.
To see a list of arguments type hlint --help
at the console.
This function writes to the stdout/stderr streams, unless --quiet
is specified.
As an example:
do hints <- hlint ["src", "--ignore=Use map","--quiet"] when (length hints > 3) $ error "Too many hints!"
Warning: The flags provided by HLint are relatively stable, but do not have the same API stability guarantees as the rest of the strongly-typed API. Do not run this function on your server with untrusted input.
applyHints :: [Classify] -> Hint -> [(Module SrcSpanInfo, [Comment])] -> [Idea] Source #
Given a way of classifying results, and a Hint
, apply to a set of modules generating a list of Idea
s.
The Idea
values will be ordered within a file.
Given a set of modules, it may be faster to pass each to applyHints
in a singleton list.
When given multiple modules at once this function attempts to find hints between modules,
which is slower and often pointless (by default HLint passes modules singularly, using
--cross
to pass all modules together).
Idea data type
An idea suggest by a Hint
.
Idea | |
|
How severe an issue is.
Ignore | The issue has been explicitly ignored and will usually be hidden (pass |
Suggestion | Suggestions are things that some people may consider improvements, but some may not. |
Warning | Warnings are suggestions that are nearly always a good idea to apply. |
Error | Available as a setting for the user. |

A note describing the impact of the replacement.

ValidInstance String String | The replacement assumes standard type class lemmas, a hint with the note |

Settings
How to classify an Idea
. If any matching field is ""
then it matches everything.
Classify | |
|
getHLintDataDir :: IO FilePath Source #
Get the Cabal configured data directory of HLint.
autoSettings :: IO (ParseFlags, [Classify], Hint) Source #
The function produces a tuple containg ParseFlags
(for parseModuleEx
),
and Classify
and Hint
for applyHints
.
It approximates the normal HLint configuration steps, roughly:
- Use
findSettings
withreadSettingsFile
to find and load the HLint settings files. - Use
parseFlagsAddFixities
andresolveHints
to transform the outputs offindSettings
.
If you want to do anything custom (e.g. using a different data directory, storing intermediate outputs, loading hints from a database) you are expected to copy and paste this function, then change it to your needs.
argsSettings :: [String] -> IO (ParseFlags, [Classify], Hint) Source #
A version of autoSettings
which respects some of the arguments supported by HLint.
If arguments unrecognised by HLint are used it will result in an error.
Arguments which have no representation in the return type are silently ignored.
findSettings :: (String -> IO (FilePath, Maybe String)) -> Maybe String -> IO ([Fixity], [Classify], [Either HintBuiltin HintRule]) Source #
Given a function to load a module (typically readSettingsFile
), and a module to start from
(defaults to hlint.yaml
) find the information from all settings files.
readSettingsFile :: Maybe FilePath -> String -> IO (FilePath, Maybe String) Source #
Given a directory (or Nothing
to imply getHLintDataDir
), and a module name
(e.g. HLint.Default
), find the settings file associated with it, returning the
name of the file, and (optionally) the contents.
This function looks for all settings files starting with HLint.
in the directory
argument, and all other files relative to the current directory.
Hints
data HintBuiltin Source #
A list of the builtin hints wired into HLint. This list is likely to grow over time.

resolveHints :: [Either HintBuiltin HintRule] -> Hint Source #
Transform a list of HintBuiltin
or HintRule
into a Hint
.
Scopes
Data type representing the modules in scope within a module.
Created with scopeCreate
and queried with scopeMatch
and scopeMove
.
Note that the mempty
Scope
is not equivalent to scopeCreate
on an empty module,
due to the implicit import of Prelude
.
scopeCreate :: Module SrcSpanInfo -> Scope Source #
Create a Scope
value from a module, based on the modules imports.
scopeMatch :: (Scope, QName S) -> (Scope, QName S) -> Bool Source #
Given a two names in scopes, could they possibly refer to the same thing. This property is reflexive.
scopeMove :: (Scope, QName S) -> Scope -> QName S Source #
Given a name in a scope, and a new scope, create a name for the new scope that will refer to the same thing. If the resulting name is ambiguous, it picks a plausible candidate.
Haskell-src-exts
parseModuleEx :: ParseFlags -> FilePath -> Maybe String -> IO (Either ParseError (Module SrcSpanInfo, [Comment])) Source #
Parse a Haskell module. Applies the C pre processor, and uses
best-guess fixity resolution if there are ambiguities. The
filename -
is treated as stdin
. Requires some flags (often
defaultParseFlags
), the filename, and optionally the contents of
that file. This version uses both hs-src-exts AND ghc-lib.
defaultParseFlags :: ParseFlags Source #
Default value for ParseFlags
.
parseFlagsAddFixities :: [Fixity] -> ParseFlags -> ParseFlags Source #
Given some fixities, add them to the existing fixities in ParseFlags
.
data ParseError Source #
A parse error.
ParseError | |
|
data ParseFlags Source #
Created with defaultParseFlags
, used by parseModuleEx
.
