A simple library for writing texts easier using do-notation.
log_ $ do
"A message on the first line"
""
"Some more messages"
"combining " <> "text"
Prints the following to stdout
A message on the first line
Some more messages
combining text
getText $ do
"My text"
"line"
"by"
"line"
Produces "My text\nline\nby\nline" :: Text
Or you can retrieve the content as list of lines
getLines $ do
"My text"
"line"
"by"
"line"
Produces ["My text","line","by","line"] :: [Text]
In many applications I end up writing something like
putStrLn "Hello user, you have to do something for me"
putStrLn "First: stand up"
putStrLn "Clap your hands"
...
And it gets tedious quickly, so I decided to make this very simple library which allows writing longer texts with do notation.
This application is opinionated about the type of String it uses. I chose Text
because it is more efficient than String, yet not as difficult to deal with as
ByteString.
