packed :: Iso' String Text

This isomorphism can be used to pack (or unpack) lazy Text.

>>> "hello"^.packed -- :: Text
"hello"

 pack x ≡ x ^. packed
 unpack x ≡ x ^. from packed
 packed ≡ from unpacked

unpacked :: Iso' Text String

This isomorphism can be used to unpack (or pack) lazy Text.

>>> "hello"^.unpacked -- :: String
"hello"

 pack x ≡ x ^. from unpacked
 unpack x ≡ x ^. packed

This Iso is provided for notational convenience rather than out of great need, since

 unpacked ≡ from packed

_Text :: Iso' Text String

This is an alias for unpacked that makes it clearer how to use it with ('#').

 _Text = from packed

>>> _Text # "hello" -- :: Text
"hello"

text :: IndexedTraversal' Int Text Char

Traverse the individual characters in a Text.

>>> anyOf text (=='c') "chello"
True

 text = unpacked . traversed

When the type is unambiguous, you can also use the more general each.

 text ≡ each

Note that when just using this as a Setter, setting map can be more efficient.

builder :: Iso' Text Builder

Convert between lazy Text and Builder .

 fromLazyText x ≡ x ^. builder
 toLazyText x ≡ x ^. from builder

utf8 :: Prism' ByteString Text

EncodeDecode a lazy 'Text' tofrom lazy ByteString, via UTF-8.

Note: This function does not decode lazily, as it must consume the entire input before deciding whether or not it fails.

>>> ByteString.unpack (utf8 # "☃")
