[![build-status]](https://travis-ci.org/abhinav/language-thrift)

`language-thrift` provides a parser and pretty printer for the [Thrift IDL
format]. In addition to parsing the IDL, it keeps track of Javadoc-style
comments (`/** ... */`) and attaches them to the type, service, function, or
field, above which they were added. These are retained when the document is
sent through the pretty printer.

The parser uses [`parsers`] to allow plugging in the underlying parser. A
default [`trifecta`] based parser is provided.

The pretty printer supports both, [`wl-pprint`] and [`ansi-wl-pprint`]. The
`ansi-wl-pprint`-based pretty printer produces colored output.

Haddock-generated docs are available on [Hackage] and [here].
