aws-arn-0.3.2.0: README.md
# aws-arn

This library provides a type representing [Amazon Resource Names
(ARNs)](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-arns-and-namespaces.html),
and parsing/unparsing functions for them. When combined with
[`generic-lens`](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/generic-lens) or
[`generic-optics`](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/generic-optics),
the provided prisms make it very convenient to rewrite parts of ARNs.
Start reading at the `Network.AWS.ARN` module, which defines the core
data type and includes some examples.
The `ARN` type is not designed to be a 100% correct-by-construction
representation of only valid ARNs; it is designed to be a lightweight
way to destructure and reassemble ARNs to be used in place of string
munging.
The library aims to provide additional parsers for destructuring the
"resource" part of an ARN, but many are missing right now. PRs to add
this support for more AWS resource types are **especially** welcome.
## Guide: adding a resource
Cribbing from an existing module (e.g., `Network.AWS.ARN.Lambda`) is
probably the easiest way to start, but here is an explicit process to
add a new resource:
1. Create a module for the AWS service, if it doesn't already
exist. Example: `src/Network/AWS/ARN/Lambda.hs`.
2. Define a record `Foo` to represent the parsed resource part of an
ARN, and derive (at least) `Eq`, `Ord`, `Hashable`, `Show` and
`Generic`:
```haskell
data Function = Function
{ name :: Text,
qualifier :: Maybe Text
}
deriving (Eq, Ord, Hashable, Show, Generic)
```
3. Define `parseFoo` and `renderFoo` functions that attempt to parse
and unparse the resource part of the ARN:
```haskell
parseFunction :: Text -> Maybe Function
renderFunction :: Function -> Text
```
**Remark:** If you need to write tests for these functions, the
corresponding module should live at
`test/Network/AWS/ARN/SomeAWSService/Test.hs`
4. Define a `_Foo` `Prism'` that combines the parsing/unparsing
functions above:
```haskell
_Function :: Prism' Text Function
_Function = prism' fromFunction toFunction
```
5. Add the records, their fields, its parsing/unparsing functions, and
prisms to the service module's export list:
```haskell
module Network.AWS.ARN.Lambda
( -- * Functions
Function (..),
parseFunction,
renderFunction,
-- ** Prisms
_Function,
)
```
6. Test your work and make a PR.

## Regenerating CI
This repo uses `haskell-ci`, which is provided by `shell.nix`:
```shell
haskell-ci regenerate
```
### Fixing CI not being able to install tools
So you ran the above command but `haskell-ci` couldn't install one of its tools
(e.g. `hlint`, `doctest`) due to version incompatibilities. `haskell-ci`
selects particular versions by default, but this can be changed with command
line flags (e.g. `--hlint-version '>=3.5 && <3.6'`, `--doctest-version ==0.20.1`).
If you do this, please check
[`haskell-ci`](https://github.com/haskell-CI/haskell-ci); if the HEAD version
does not select the latest version of a tool, please contribute a PR to that
repository.
