Network.HTTP.Kinder.URI

Classes for encoding and decoding

class URIEncode a where

Determines a Text serialization of a type with URI segment representation.

Methods

uriEncode :: a -> Text

class URIDecode a where

Parses a Text serialization of a for some type from a representation as a URI segment.

Methods

uriDecode :: Text -> Either String a

Instances

URIDecode Int

URIDecode Int8

URIDecode Int16

URIDecode Int32

URIDecode Int64

URIDecode Integer

URIDecode Text

For URI segments this instance is the same as the one for Raw Text since URI segments don't contain quotations.

URIDecode (Raw Text)

Extra serialization utilities

uriDecodeBS :: URIDecode a => ByteString -> Either String a

Since URIDecode assumes a Text-like representation but we may read a ByteString off the wire, this helper function first tries to decode the ByteString as UTF-8 Text then decodes according to URIDecode.
