+
+-- | Put all fields of a record constructor into scope.
+--
+-- @f $(fields 'Rec) = ...@ is equivalent to @f Rec{..}@, but the compiler
+-- will warn you about all unused fields. Thus 'fields' brings compile-time
+-- safety whenever you want to guarantee that a certain function uses all
+-- fields of @Rec@.
+--
+-- To explicitly ignore a field, match it against @_@:
+--
+-- @
+-- f $(fields 'Rec) = ...
+--   where
+--     -- Ignored fields
+--     _ = (recUselessField1, recUselessField2)
+-- @
+--
+-- Usage examples include @ToJSON@ instances and various encoders in
+-- general:
+--
+-- @
+-- instance ToJSON Rec where
+--   toJSON $(fields 'Rec) = ...
+-- @
+--
+-- __Note:__ if you want to define the data type and use 'fields' in the
+-- same module, you will need to add @\$(pure [])@ after the type
+-- declaration. See the post about <https://blog.monadfix.com/th-groups declaration groups>
+-- for more details. Your code will look like this:
+--
+-- @
+-- data Rec = ...
+-- \$(pure [])
+--
+-- f $(fields 'Rec) = ...
+-- @
+fields :: Name -> PatQ
+fields = fieldsNamed id
+
+-- | Like 'fields', but prefixes all fields with the given prefix.
+--
+-- Useful if you need to put fields from more than one record into scope:
+--
+-- @
+-- diff :: Rec -> Rec -> Text
+-- diff $(fieldsPrefixed "a_" 'Rec) $(fieldsPrefixed "b_" 'Rec) = ...
+-- @
+fieldsPrefixed :: String -> Name -> PatQ
