README
The io-streams library contains simple and easy to use primitives for I/O
using streams. Based on simple types with one type parameter (InputStream a
and OutputStream a
), io-streams provides a basic interface to
side-effecting input and output in IO
monad with the following
features:
three fundamental I/O primitives that anyone can understand:
read :: InputStream a -> IO (Maybe a)
,unRead :: a -> InputStream a -> IO ()
, andwrite :: Maybe a -> OutputStream a -> IO ()
.simple types and side-effecting IO operations mean straightforward and simple exception handling and resource cleanup using standard Haskell facilities like
bracket
.code to transform files, handles, and sockets to streams
a variety of combinators for wrapping and transforming streams, including compression and decompression using zlib, controlling precisely how many bytes are read to or written from a socket, buffering output using
blaze-builder
, etc.support for parsing from streams using
attoparsec
.
