# haskell-template
|
|
|
|
Get a Haskell development environment up and running quickly, as long as Nix is available on your system[^windows].
|
|
|
|
[^windows]: On Windows, you may install Nix [under WSL2](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Nix_Installation_Guide#Windows_Subsystem_for_Linux_.28WSL.29) and use the [Remote - WSL extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-wsl) to connect from the native VSCode. This runs your project under Linux while providing a near-native development experience on Windows.
|
|
|
|
This repository is a Haskell project template that is optimized for a fully reproducible and friendly development environment. It is based on:
|
|
|
|
- [Nix](https://srid.ca/haskell-nix) + [Flakes](https://serokell.io/blog/practical-nix-flakes) (via [`github:srid/haskell-flake`](https://github.com/srid/haskell-flake)) + GHC 9
|
|
- VSCode + [HLS](https://github.com/haskell/haskell-language-server)
|
|
- [fourmolu](https://github.com/fourmolu/fourmolu) autoformatting
|
|
- [Relude](https://github.com/kowainik/relude#relude) as Prelude.
|
|
- `.hlint.yaml` is [from relude](https://github.com/kowainik/relude/blob/main/.hlint.yaml)
|
|
|
|
## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
First-time setup:
|
|
|
|
- [Install Nix](https://nixos.org/download.html) (>= 2.8) & [enable Flakes](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes) (Using Windows? See footnote[^windows])
|
|
- Run `nix develop -i -c haskell-language-server` to sanity check your environment
|
|
- [Open as single-folder workspace](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/workspaces#_singlefolder-workspaces) in Visual Studio Code
|
|
- When prompted by VSCode, install the [workspace recommended](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/extension-marketplace#_workspace-recommended-extensions) extensions
|
|
- <kbd>Ctrl+Shift+P</kbd> to run command "Nix-Env: Select Environment" and then select `shell.nix`.
|
|
- The extension will ask you to reload VSCode at the end. Do it.
|
|
|
|
To run the program with auto-recompile:
|
|
|
|
- Press <kbd>Ctrl+Shift+B</kbd> in VSCode, or run `bin/run` in terminal, to launch Ghcid running your program.
|
|
|
|
Open `Main.hs`, and expect all HLS IDE features like hover-over tooltip to work out of the box. Try changing the source, and expect Ghcid to re-compile and re-run the app in the terminal below.
|
|

|
|
Renaming the project:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# First, click the green "Use this template" button on GitHub to create your copy.
|
|
git clone <your-clone-url>
|
|
cd your-project
|
|
NAME=myproject
|
|
|
|
git mv haskell-template.cabal ${NAME}.cabal
|
|
nix run nixpkgs#sd -- haskell-template ${NAME} * */*
|
|
git add . && git commit -m rename
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Tips
|
|
|
|
- Run `nix flake update` to update all flake inputs.
|
|
- Run `nix --option sandbox false build .#check -L` to run the flake checks.
|
|
- Run `treefmt` in nix shell to autoformat the project. This uses [treefmt](https://github.com/numtide/treefmt), which uses `./treefmt.toml` (where fourmolu and nixpkgs-fmt are specified).
|
|
- Run `bin/hoogle` to start Hoogle with packages in your cabal file.
|
|
- Run `bin/test` to run the test suite.
|
|
- Run the application without installing: `nix run github:srid/haskell-template` (or `nix run .` from checkout)
