constraints-emerge: defer instance lookups until runtime

Build Status | Hackage

Dedication

Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.

Denis Waitley

Synopsis

{-# LANGUAGE ConstraintKinds     #-}
{-# LANGUAGE FlexibleContexts    #-}
{-# LANGUAGE ScopedTypeVariables #-}
{-# LANGUAGE TypeApplications    #-}
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -fplugin=Data.Constraint.Emerge.Plugin #-}

module Test where

import Data.Constraint.Emerge

showAnything :: forall c. Emerge (Show c) => c -> String
showAnything c =
  case emerge @(Show c) of
    Just Dict -> show c
    Nothing -> "<<unshowable>>"


showBool = showAnything True  -- "True"
showId   = showAnything id    -- "<<unshowable>>"

Known Bugs

  • constraints-emerge will fail to generate type-equality dictionaries
  • It fails to provide Emerge c dictionaries at runtime.
  • The generated error messages mention mangled type variables; it would be cool if they didn't.

If someone wants to pick it up from here, that’d be great!
