Documentation

die :: String -> IO a | Source

dieWithLocation :: FilePath -> Maybe Int -> String -> IO a | Source

warn :: Verbosity -> String -> IO () | Source

Non fatal conditions that may be indicative of an error or problem. We display these at the `normal` verbosity level.

notice :: Verbosity -> String -> IO () | Source

Useful status messages. We display these at the `normal` verbosity level. This is for the ordinary helpful status messages that users see. Just enough information to know that things are working but not floods of detail.

info :: Verbosity -> String -> IO () | Source

More detail on the operation of some action. We display these messages when the verbosity level is `verbose`

debug :: Verbosity -> String -> IO () | Source

Detailed internal debugging information We display these messages when the verbosity level is `deafening`

breaks :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> [[a]] | Source

wrapText :: Int -> [String] -> [String] | Source

rawSystemExit :: Verbosity -> FilePath -> [String] -> IO () | Source

rawSystemStdout :: Verbosity -> FilePath -> [String] -> IO String | Source

rawSystemStdout' :: Verbosity -> FilePath -> [String] -> IO (String, ExitCode) | Source

maybeExit :: IO ExitCode -> IO () | Source

xargs :: Int -> ([String] -> IO ()) -> [String] -> [String] -> IO () | Source

Like the unix xargs program. Useful for when we've got very long command lines that might overflow an OS limit on command line length and so you need to invoke a command multiple times to get all the args in.

Use it with either of the rawSystem variants above. For example:

     xargs (32*1024) (rawSystemPathExit verbosity) prog fixedArgs bigArgs

matchesDescFile :: FilePath -> Bool | Source

rawSystemPathExit :: Verbosity -> String -> [String] -> IO () | Source

smartCopySources | Source

:: Verbosity | verbosity
-> [FilePath] | build prefix (location of objects)
-> FilePath | Target directory
-> [String] | Modules
-> [String] | search suffixes
-> Bool | Exit if no such modules
-> Bool | Preserve directory structure
-> IO () |
Copy the source files into the right directory. Looks in the build prefix for files that look like the input modules, based on the input search suffixes. It copies the files into the target directory.

createDirectoryIfMissingVerbose :: Verbosity -> Bool -> FilePath -> IO () | Source

copyFileVerbose :: Verbosity -> FilePath -> FilePath -> IO () | Source

copyDirectoryRecursiveVerbose :: Verbosity -> FilePath -> FilePath -> IO () | Source

moduleToFilePath | Source

:: [FilePath] | search locations
-> String | Module Name
-> [String] | possible suffixes
-> IO [FilePath] |
Get the file path for this particular module. In the IO monad because it looks for the actual file. Might eventually interface with preprocessor libraries in order to correctly locate more filenames. Returns empty list if no such files exist.

moduleToFilePath2 | Source

:: [FilePath] | search locations
-> String | Module Name
-> [String] | possible suffixes
-> IO [(FilePath, FilePath)] | locations and relative names
Like `moduleToFilePath`, but return the location and the rest of the path as separate results.

mkLibName | Source

:: FilePath | file Prefix
-> String | library name.
-> String |

mkProfLibName | Source

:: FilePath | file Prefix
-> String | library name.
-> String |

mkSharedLibName | Source

:: FilePath | file Prefix
-> String | library name.
-> PackageIdentifier | package identifier of the compiler
-> String |

currentDir :: FilePath | Source

The path name that represents the current directory. In Unix, it's `"."`, but this is system-specific. (E.g. AmigaOS uses the empty string `""` for the current directory.)

dotToSep :: String -> String | Source

findFile | Source

:: [FilePath] | search locations
-> FilePath | File Name
-> IO FilePath |

findFileWithExtension :: [String] -> [FilePath] -> FilePath -> IO (Maybe FilePath) | Source

findFileWithExtension' :: [String] -> [FilePath] -> FilePath -> IO (Maybe (FilePath, FilePath)) | Source

defaultPackageDesc :: Verbosity -> IO FilePath | Source

Package description file (pkgname`.cabal`)

findPackageDesc | Source

:: Verbosity | Verbosity
-> FilePath | Where to look
-> IO FilePath |
Find a package description file in the given directory. Looks for `.cabal` files.

defaultHookedPackageDesc :: IO (Maybe FilePath) | Source

Optional auxiliary package information file (pkgname`.buildinfo`)

findHookedPackageDesc | Source

:: FilePath | Directory to search
-> IO (Maybe FilePath) | dir`/`pkgname`.buildinfo`, if present
Find auxiliary package information in the given directory. Looks for `.buildinfo` files.

exeExtension :: String | Source

Extension for executable files (typically `""` on Unix and `"exe"` on Windows or OS/2)

objExtension :: String | Source

Extension for object files. For GHC and NHC the extension is `"o"`. Hugs uses either `"o"` or `"obj"` depending on the used C compiler.

dllExtension :: String | Source

Extension for dynamically linked (or shared) libraries (typically `"so"` on Unix and `"dll"` on Windows)
