Hoobuddy

Hoobuddy is a simple too which, given a cabal file as input, will fetch hoogle databases for all packages specified as dependencies. All databases will then be merged into a file called default.hoo in your current working directory.

Hoogle always searches the current directory first for a file called default.hoo. This allows for searches which include all functions available in your current project.

In addition to the files listed in your cabal file hoobuddy will include a set of common packages to include in the search. Furthermore the hoobuddy configuration file (~/.hoobuddy) can be used to configure a custom set of packages to include.

You can print a default configuration using the --default switch.

Install

Check out the git repository and install via:

$ cabal install

Alternatively you may want to install hoobuddy in a sandbox and copy the binary to somewhere in your PATH.

Usage

Note Before running hoobudy for the first time you must have invoked hoogle data once.

When run without arguments hoobuddy prints the help:

Usage : hoobuddy [deps|fetch] <cabal-file>
                 [--help]
                 [--default]

deps         list configured dependencies
fetch        do stuff yet to be defined

--default    prints the default configuration
--help       prints this help
