text-show

Efficient conversion of values into Text

@text-show@ offers a replacement for the @Show@ typeclass intended for use with @Text@ instead of @String@s. This package was created in the spirit of @<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/bytestring-show bytestring-show>@. At the moment, @text-show@ provides instances for most data types in the @<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/array array>@, @<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/base base>@, @<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/bytestring bytestring>@, and @<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/text text>@ packages. Therefore, much of the source code for @text-show@ consists of borrowed code from those packages in order to ensure that the behaviors of @Show@ and @TextShow@ coincide. For most uses, simply importing "TextShow" will suffice: @ module Main where import TextShow main :: IO () main = printT (Just \"Hello, World!\") @ See also the <https://github.com/RyanGlScott/text-show/wiki/Naming-conventions naming conventions> page. Support for automatically deriving @TextShow@ instances can be found in the "TextShow.TH" and "TextShow.Generic" modules.
