Description

This module gives you the ability to specify which errors are thrown by a Servant api. This is done with the Throws data type. Here is an example of creating an api that uses Throws:

  type Api =
    "author" :>
    Capture "author-id" AuthorId :>
    Throws CouldNotConnectToDbError :>
    Throws AuthorNotFoundError :>
    Get '[JSON] Author

This api will return an Author for a given AuthorId. Throws is used to indicate that this api will potentially return two different errors: CouldNotConnectToDbError and AuthorNotFoundError.

These two errors might be defined like this:

  data CouldNotConnectToDbError = CouldNotConnectToDbError
    deriving (Eq, Read, Show)

  data AuthorNotFoundError = AuthorNotFoundError
    deriving (Eq, Read, Show)

Writing the server handler for this api will look like the following. Notice how the Envelope type is used:

  getAuthorHandler
    :: AuthorId
    -> Handler (Envelope '[DatabaseError, AuthorNotFoundError] Author)
  getAuthorHandler authorId = do
    eitherAuthor <- getAuthorFromDb authorId
    case eitherAuthor of
      Left NoDb -> pure $ toErrEnvelope CouldNotConnectToDbError
      Left NoAuthor -> pure $ toErrEnvelope AuthorNotFoundError
      Right author -> pure $ toSuccEnvelope author

  getAuthorFromDb :: AuthorId -> Handler (Either DbErr Author)
  getAuthorFromDb = ...

  data DbErr = NoDb | NoAuthor

Envelope '[DatabaseError, AuthorNotFoundError] Author represents a response that will contain an Author on success, or contain either a DatabaseError or a AuthorNotFoundError on error.

Under the hood, Envelope is using an extensible sum-type (OpenUnion) to represent possible errors. Working with an api that returns two possible errors is just as easy as working with an api that returns three possible errors.

Clients will also use the Envelope type:

  getAuthor
    :: AuthorId
    -> ClientM (Envelope '[DatabaseError, AuthorNotFoundError] Author)
  getAuthor = client (Proxy :: Proxy Api)

It is easy to do case analysis (similar to pattern matching) on the Envelope type with the catchesEnvelope function.

Checkout the example in the repository on Github. It includes a fleshed-out example of an api, server, client, and documentation. The README.md shows how to compile and run the examples.

Synopsis

Throws API parameter

data Throws e Source #

Throws is used in Servant API definitions and signifies that an API will throw the given error.

Here is an example of how to create an API that potentially returns a String as an error, or an Int on success:

>>> import Servant.API (Get, JSON, (:>))
>>> type API = Throws String :> Get '[JSON] Int

Instances

type Client * ((:>) k * (Throws e) api) # 
type Client * ((:>) k * (Throws e) api) = Client * ((:>) k * (Throwing ((:) * e ([] *))) api)
type ServerT * ((:>) k * (Throws e) api) m # 
type ServerT * ((:>) k * (Throws e) api) m = ServerT * ((:>) k * (Throwing ((:) * e ([] *))) api) m

Envelope response wrapper

data Envelope es a Source #

This Envelope type is a used as a wrapper around either an OpenUnion with an error or a successful value. It is similar to an Either e a, but where the e is specialized to OpenUnion es. The most important difference from Either is the the FromJSON and ToJSON instances.

Given an Envelope '[String, Double] (), we know that the envelope could be a SuccEnvelope and contain (). Or it could be a ErrEnvelope that contains either a String or a Double. It might be simpler to think of it as a type like Either String (Either Double ()).

An Envelope can be created with the toErrEnvelope and toSuccEnvelope functions. The Prisms _SuccEnvelope, _ErrEnvelope, and _ErrEnvelopeErr can be used to get values out of an Envelope.

>>> toSuccEnvelope "hello" :: Envelope '[Double] String
SuccEnvelope "hello"

toErrEnvelope :: IsMember e es => e -> Envelope es a Source #

Create an ErrEnvelope from a member of the OpenUnion.

>>> let double = 3.5 :: Double
>>> toErrEnvelope double :: Envelope '[String, Double, Int] ()
ErrEnvelope (Identity 3.5)

Envelope destructors

envelope :: (OpenUnion es -> c) -> (a -> c) -> Envelope es a -> c Source #

Case analysis for Envelopes.

Examples

Here is an example of matching on a SuccEnvelope:

>>> let env = toSuccEnvelope "hello" :: Envelope '[Double, Int] String
>>> envelope (const "not a String") id env
"hello"

Here is an example of matching on a ErrEnvelope:

>>> let double = 3.5 :: Double
>>> let env' = toErrEnvelope double :: Envelope '[Double, Int] String
>>> envelope (const "not a String") id env'
"not a String"

fromEnvelope :: (OpenUnion es -> a) -> Envelope es a -> a Source #

Just like fromEither but for Envelope.

Examples

Here is an example of successfully matching:

>>> let env = toSuccEnvelope "hello" :: Envelope '[Double, Int] String
>>> fromEnvelope (const "not a String") env
"hello"

Here is an example of unsuccessfully matching:

>>> let double = 3.5 :: Double
>>> let env' = toErrEnvelope double :: Envelope '[Double, Int] String
>>> fromEnvelope (const "not a String") env'
"not a String"

fromEnvelopeOr :: Envelope es a -> (OpenUnion es -> a) -> a Source #

Flipped version of fromEnvelope.

fromEnvelopeM :: Applicative m => (OpenUnion es -> m a) -> Envelope es a -> m a Source #

Lifted version of fromEnvelope.

fromEnvelopeOrM :: Applicative m => Envelope es a -> (OpenUnion es -> m a) -> m a Source #

Flipped version of fromEnvelopeM.

errEnvelopeMatch :: forall e es a. IsMember e es => Envelope es a -> Maybe e Source #

Pull out a specific e from an ErrEnvelope.

Examples

Successfully pull out an e:

>>> let double = 3.5 :: Double
>>> let env = toErrEnvelope double :: Envelope '[Double] ()
>>> errEnvelopeMatch env :: Maybe Double
Just 3.5

Unsuccessfully pull out an e:

>>> let env' = toSuccEnvelope () :: Envelope '[Double] ()
>>> errEnvelopeMatch env' :: Maybe Double
Nothing
>>> let env'' = toErrEnvelope 'c' :: Envelope '[Double, Char] ()
>>> errEnvelopeMatch env'' :: Maybe Double
Nothing

catchesEnvelope :: forall tuple es a x. ToOpenProduct tuple (ReturnX x es) => tuple -> (a -> x) -> Envelope es a -> x Source #

An alternate case anaylsis for an Envelope. This method uses a tuple containing handlers for each potential value of the Envelope. This is somewhat similar to the catches function.

When working with an Envelope with a large number of possible error types, it can be easier to use catchesEnvelope than envelope.

Examples

Here is an example of handling an SuccEnvelope with two possible error values. Notice that a normal tuple is used:

>>> let env = toSuccEnvelope 2.0 :: Envelope '[Int, String] Double
>>> let intHandler = (\int -> show int) :: Int -> String
>>> let strHandler = (\str -> str) :: String -> String
>>> let succHandler = (\dbl -> "got a double") :: Double -> String
>>> catchesEnvelope (intHandler, strHandler) succHandler env :: String
"got a double"

Here is an example of handling an ErrEnvelope with two possible error values. Notice that a normal tuple is used to hold the handlers:

>>> let env = toErrEnvelope (3 :: Int) :: Envelope '[Int, String] Double
>>> let intHandler = (\int -> show int) :: Int -> String
>>> let strHandler = (\str -> str) :: String -> String
>>> let succHandler = (\dbl -> "got a double") :: Double -> String
>>> catchesEnvelope (intHandler, strHandler) succHandler env :: String
"3"

Given an Envelope like Envelope '[Int, String] Double, the type of catchesEnvelope becomes the following:

  catchesEnvelope
    :: (Int -> x, String -> x)
    -> (Double -> x)
    -> Envelope '[Int, String] Double
    -> x

Here is an example of handling an ErrEnvelope with three possible values. Notice how a 3-tuple is used to hold the handlers:

>>> let env = toErrEnvelope ("hi" :: String) :: Envelope '[Int, String, Char] Double
>>> let intHandler = (\int -> show int) :: Int -> String
>>> let strHandler = (\str -> str) :: String -> String
>>> let chrHandler = (\chr -> [chr]) :: Char -> String
>>> let succHandler = (\dbl -> "got a double") :: Double -> String
>>> catchesEnvelope (intHandler, strHandler, chrHandler) succHandler env :: String
"hi"

Given an Envelope like Envelope '[Int, String, Char] Double, the type of catchesEnvelope becomes the following:

  catchesEnvelope
    :: (Int -> x, String -> x, Char -> x)
    -> (Double -> x)
    -> Envelope '[Int, String, Char] Double
    -> x

Here is an example of handling an ErrEnvelope with only one possible error value. Notice that a normal handler is used (not a tuple):

>>> let env = toErrEnvelope (3 :: Int) :: Envelope '[Int] Double
>>> let intHandler = (\int -> show int) :: Int -> String
>>> let succHandler = (\dbl -> "got a double") :: Double -> String
>>> catchesEnvelope intHandler succHandler env :: String
"3"

Given an Envelope like Envelope '[Int] Double, the type of catchesEnvelope becomes the following:

  catchesEnvelope
    :: (Int -> x)
    -> (Double -> x)
    -> Envelope '[Int] Double
    -> x

OpenUnion Helpers

openUnion :: (OpenUnion as -> c) -> (a -> c) -> OpenUnion (a ': as) -> c Source #

Case analysis for OpenUnion.

Examples

Here is an example of successfully matching:

>>> let string = "hello" :: String
>>> let o = openUnionLift string :: OpenUnion '[String, Int]
>>> openUnion (const "not a String") id o
"hello"

Here is an example of unsuccessfully matching:

>>> let double = 3.3 :: Double
>>> let p = openUnionLift double :: OpenUnion '[String, Double, Int]
>>> openUnion (const "not a String") id p
"not a String"

fromOpenUnion :: (OpenUnion as -> a) -> OpenUnion (a ': as) -> a Source #

This is similar to fromMaybe for an OpenUnion.

Examples

Here is an example of successfully matching:

>>> let string = "hello" :: String
>>> let o = openUnionLift string :: OpenUnion '[String, Int]
>>> fromOpenUnion (const "not a String") o
"hello"

Here is an example of unsuccessfully matching:

>>> let double = 3.3 :: Double
>>> let p = openUnionLift double :: OpenUnion '[String, Double, Int]
>>> fromOpenUnion (const "not a String") p

catchesOpenUnion :: ToOpenProduct tuple (ReturnX x as) => tuple -> OpenUnion as -> x Source #

An alternate case anaylsis for an OpenUnion. This method uses a tuple containing handlers for each potential value of the OpenUnion. This is somewhat similar to the catches function.

When working with large OpenUnions, it can be easier to use catchesOpenUnion than openUnion.

Examples

Here is an example of handling an OpenUnion with two possible values. Notice that a normal tuple is used:

>>> let u = openUnionLift (3 :: Int) :: OpenUnion '[Int, String]
>>> let intHandler = (\int -> show int) :: Int -> String
>>> let strHandler = (\str -> str) :: String -> String
>>> catchesOpenUnion (intHandler, strHandler) u :: String
"3"

Given an OpenUnion like OpenUnion '[Int, String], the type of catchesOpenUnion becomes the following:

  catchesOpenUnion
    :: (Int -> x, String -> x)
    -> OpenUnion '[Int, String]
    -> x

Here is an example of handling an OpenUnion with three possible values:

>>> let u = openUnionLift ("hello" :: String) :: OpenUnion '[Int, String, Double]
>>> let intHandler = (\int -> show int) :: Int -> String
>>> let strHandler = (\str -> str) :: String -> String
>>> let dblHandler = (\dbl -> "got a double") :: Double -> String
>>> catchesOpenUnion (intHandler, strHandler, dblHandler) u :: String
"hello"

Here is an example of handling an OpenUnion with only one possible value. Notice how a tuple is not used, just a single value:

>>> let u = openUnionLift (2.2 :: Double) :: OpenUnion '[Double]
>>> let dblHandler = (\dbl -> "got a double") :: Double -> String
>>> catchesOpenUnion dblHandler u :: String
"got a double"

Union (used by OpenUnion)

OpenUnion is a type synonym around Union. Most users will be able to work directly with OpenUnion and ignore this Union type.

(Read (f a1), Read (Union a f as)) => Read (Union a f ((:) a a1 as)) Source #

This is only a valid instance when the Read instances for the types don't overlap.

For instance, imagine we are working with a Union of a String and a Double. 3.5 can only be read as a Double, not as a String. Oppositely, "hello" can only be read as a String, not as a Double.

>>> let o = readMaybe "Identity 3.5" :: Maybe (Union Identity '[Double, String])
>>> o
Just (Identity 3.5)
>>> o >>= openUnionMatch :: Maybe Double
Just 3.5
>>> o >>= openUnionMatch :: Maybe String
Nothing
>>> let p = readMaybe "Identity \"hello\"" :: Maybe (Union Identity '[Double, String])
>>> p
Just (Identity "hello")
>>> p >>= openUnionMatch :: Maybe Double
Nothing
>>> p >>= openUnionMatch :: Maybe String
Just "hello"

However, imagine are we working with a Union of a String and Text. "hello" can be read as both a String and Text. However, in the following example, it can only be read as a String:

>>> let q = readMaybe "Identity \"hello\"" :: Maybe (Union Identity '[String, Text])
>>> q
Just (Identity "hello")
>>> q >>= openUnionMatch :: Maybe String
Just "hello"
>>> q >>= openUnionMatch :: Maybe Text
Nothing

If the order of the types is flipped around, we are are able to read "hello" as a Text but not as a String.

>>> let r = readMaybe "Identity \"hello\"" :: Maybe (Union Identity '[Text, String])
>>> r
Just (Identity "hello")
>>> r >>= openUnionMatch :: Maybe String
Nothing
>>> r >>= openUnionMatch :: Maybe Text
Just "hello"

toEncodingList :: [Union u f [u]] -> Encoding #

(FromJSON (f a1), FromJSON (Union a f as)) => FromJSON (Union a f ((:) a a1 as)) Source #

This is only a valid instance when the FromJSON instances for the types don't overlap.

This is similar to the Read instance.

Methods

parseJSON :: Value -> Parser (Union a f ((a ': a1) as)) #

parseJSONList :: Value -> Parser [Union a f ((a ': a1) as)] #

FromJSON (Union u f ([] u)) Source #

This will always fail, since Union f '[] is effectively Void.

Methods

parseJSON :: Value -> Parser (Union u f [u]) #

parseJSONList :: Value -> Parser [Union u f [u]] #

Union helpers

union :: (Union f as -> c) -> (f a -> c) -> Union f (a ': as) -> c Source #

Case analysis for Union.

Examples

Here is an example of matching on a This:

>>> let u = This (Identity "hello") :: Union Identity '[String, Int]
>>> let runIdent = runIdentity :: Identity String -> String
>>> union (const "not a String") runIdent u
"hello"

Here is an example of matching on a That:

>>> let v = That (This (Identity 3.3)) :: Union Identity '[String, Double, Int]
>>> union (const "not a String") runIdent v
"not a String"

absurdUnion :: Union f '[] -> a Source #

Since a union with an empty list of labels is uninhabited, we can recover any type from it.

umap :: (forall a. f a -> g a) -> Union f as -> Union g as Source #

Map over the interpretation f in the Union.

Examples

Here is an example of changing a Union Identity '[String, Int] to Union Maybe '[String, Int]:

>>> let u = This (Identity "hello") :: Union Identity '[String, Int]
>>> umap (Just . runIdentity) u :: Union Maybe '[String, Int]
Just "hello"

catchesUnion :: (Applicative f, ToProduct tuple f (ReturnX x as)) => tuple -> Union f as -> f x Source #

An alternate case anaylsis for a Union. This method uses a tuple containing handlers for each potential value of the Union. This is somewhat similar to the catches function.

Examples

Here is an example of handling a Union with two possible values. Notice that a normal tuple is used:

>>> let u = This $ Identity 3 :: Union Identity '[Int, String]
>>> let intHandler = (Identity $ \int -> show int) :: Identity (Int -> String)
>>> let strHandler = (Identity $ \str -> str) :: Identity (String -> String)
>>> catchesUnion (intHandler, strHandler) u :: Identity String
Identity "3"

Given a Union like Union Identity '[Int, String], the type of catchesUnion becomes the following:

  catchesUnion
    :: (Identity (Int -> String), Identity (String -> String))
    -> Union Identity '[Int, String]
    -> Identity String

Checkout catchesOpenUnion for more examples.

Union optics

_This :: Prism (Union f (a ': as)) (Union f (b ': as)) (f a) (f b) Source #

Lens-compatible Prism for This.

Examples

Use _This to construct a Union:

>>> review _This (Just "hello") :: Union Maybe '[String]
Just "hello"

Use _This to try to destruct a Union into a f a:

>>> let u = This (Identity "hello") :: Union Identity '[String, Int]
>>> preview _This u :: Maybe (Identity String)
Just (Identity "hello")

Use _This to try to destruct a Union into a f a (unsuccessfully):

>>> let v = That (This (Identity 3.3)) :: Union Identity '[String, Double, Int]
>>> preview _This v :: Maybe (Identity String)
Nothing

_That :: Prism (Union f (a ': as)) (Union f (a ': bs)) (Union f as) (Union f bs) Source #

Lens-compatible Prism for That.

Examples

Use _That to construct a Union:

>>> let u = This (Just "hello") :: Union Maybe '[String]
>>> review _That u :: Union Maybe '[Double, String]
Just "hello"

Use _That to try to peel off a That from a Union:

>>> let v = That (This (Identity "hello")) :: Union Identity '[Int, String]
>>> preview _That v :: Maybe (Union Identity '[String])
Just (Identity "hello")

Use _That to try to peel off a That from a Union (unsuccessfully):

>>> let w = This (Identity 3.5) :: Union Identity '[Double, String]
>>> preview _That w :: Maybe (Union Identity '[String])
Nothing

Typeclasses used with Union

data Nat Source #

A mere approximation of the natural numbers. And their image as lifted by -XDataKinds corresponds to the actual natural numbers.

Constructors

Z 
S !Nat 

type family RIndex (r :: k) (rs :: [k]) :: Nat where ... Source #

A partial relation that gives the index of a value in a list.

Examples

Find the first item:

>>> import Data.Type.Equality ((:~:)(Refl))
>>> Refl :: RIndex String '[String, Int] :~: 'Z
Refl

Find the third item:

>>> Refl :: RIndex Char '[String, Int, Char] :~: 'S ('S 'Z)
Refl

Equations

RIndex r (r ': rs) = Z 
RIndex r (s ': rs) = S (RIndex r rs) 

class i ~ RIndex a as => UElem a as i where Source #

UElem a as i provides a way to potentially get an f a out of a Union f as (unionMatch). It also provides a way to create a Union f as from an f a (unionLift).

This is safe because of the RIndex contraint. This RIndex constraint tells us that there actually is an a in as at index i.

As an end-user, you should never need to implement an additional instance of this typeclass.

OpenProduct (used by OpenUnion)

This Product type is used to easily create a case-analysis for Unions. You can see it being used in catchesOpenUnion and catchesEnvelope.
