doctest-discover
- Do you have to maintain a list of source files that cabal needs to use to run doctests?
doctest-discover (inspired by hspec-discover) makes it easy to run doctests via cabal.
doctest-discover is published on hackage
The only thing you need to do is create a driver file with one line (let's call it doctest-driver.hs):
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -F -pgmF doctest-discover #-}
Use it as the main for the test-suite in your cabal file:
test-suite cooler-doctests
default-language: Haskell2010
type: exitcode-stdio-1.0
ghc-options: -threaded
main-is: doctest-driver.hs
build-depends: base >4 && <5, doctest, doctest-discover
HS-Source-Dirs: test
doctest-discover is used as a pre-processor. Since there is nothing to pre-process in the file, it builds a temporary file with the code needed to run doctests via cabal.
Configuration
Configuration has to be specified in a json file. Make sure you put the config file in the root directory of your project.
To use a config file, change your driver to add the config file name with the -optF flag.
{-# OPTIONS_GHC -F -pgmF doctest-discover -optF config.json #-}
