Possible to use an interpreter package such as Hint, or GHC API?

[karljs]

I'd like to try to write a browser application that interprets user-provided Haskell code, but am not sure if ghcjs will allow me to do this. Trying to use cabal install --ghcjs fails some dependency checks for Hint, but I suspect there might be a deeper problem.

Is there, or will there be, a way to accomplish something like this?

Hint is not compatible with GHCJS and GHC 7.7.

I am actually working on a similar project with a bigger scope, interactive-diagrams: http://github.com/co-dan/interactive-diagrams

In the process I hope that I will come up with a cleaner higher-level API for GHCJS.

Hth,

@co-dan Thanks for the information. I've actually seen your project via the Diagrams mailing list, and will keep an eye on it.
