Building

Clone the repo:

$ git clone git@github.com:chrisdone/hl.git

You need one of these GHC versions:

Create an hsenv:

$ cd hl
$ hsenv
$ source .hsenv/bin/activate

You need the right package set. Add the following to your .hsenv/cabal/config, replacing the Hackage reference:

If you have GHC 7.6:

  remote-repo: stackage:http://www.stackage.org/stackage/1ba546f8f281c02d135ec3babd86516f726b4453

If you have GHC 7.8:

  remote-repo: stackage:http://www.stackage.org/stackage/160b97ce7459820d4de720d6a867b85297ab4351

Now just run:

$ sh scripts/pull-build

To do the above cabal update, submodule, install, etc.

Done!

Manually running the binary:

$ dist/build/hl/hl

Running from inside GHCi:

> :l DevelMain
> DevelMain.update

Run this every time you want to update the web handler in-place, as in this demo.

If you use Emacs, you can just bind it to a key:

(define-key html-mode-map [f12] 'haskell-process-reload-devel-main))

Just hit f12 to recompile and restart.

It uses Yesod and an MVC organization.

Templates are written in senza, a convenience wrapper to blaze-html. There is presently no database.

I use this style for code.
