README
Given a module name and a name, it will find and display the documentation of that name.
Example usage
Call it with a module name and an identifier:
$ haskell-docs Data.List.Split split
split :: forall a. Splitter a -> [a] -> [[a]]
Split a list according to the given splitting strategy. This is
how to "run" a Splitter that has been built using the other
combinators.
Installation
You should ensure that you have
documentation: True
in your .cabal/config
so that the necessary .haddock files are
generated.
Haddock is very sensitive to the GHC version. This program tries not to be. If you cannot install this package due to a version problem, open a Github issue. If the versions match up but the build fails, open a Github issue. Neither case should arise.
Supported GHC versions:
- ghc==7.8.* (requires haddock==2.14.*)
- ghc==7.6.* (requires haddock==2.13.*)
- ghc==7.4.* (requires haddock==2.11.*)
- ghc==7.2.* (requires haddock==2.9.*)
If you are using haddock==2.12 somehow, please open an issue about it.
Using with GHCi
> :def doc \input -> return (":!haskell-docs " ++ input)
> :doc System.IO getContents base
Outputs:
getContents :: IO String
ThegetContents
operation returns all user input as a single string, which is read lazily as it is needed (same ashGetContents stdin
).
Add the above :def
to your user .ghci
to have it on start-up.
