data-diverse-0.10.0.0: README.md

[![Hackage](https://img.shields.io/hackage/v/data-diverse.svg)](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/data-diverse)
[![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/louispan/data-diverse.png?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/louispan/data-diverse)

"Data.Diverse.Many" is an extensible record for any size encoded efficiently as (Seq Any).

"Data.Diverse.Which" polymorphic variant of possibilities encoded as (Int, Any).

Provides getters, setters, projection, injection, folds, and catamorphisms;
accessed by type or index or label.

Refer to [ManySpec.hs](https://github.com/louispan/data-diverse/blob/master/test/Data/Diverse/ManySpec.hs) and [WhichSpec.hs](https://github.com/louispan/data-diverse/blob/master/test/Data/Diverse/WhichSpec.hs) for example usages.

Iso, Lens and Prisms are provided in [data-diverse-lens](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/data-diverse-lens)


# Changelog

* 0.1.0.0
  - Initial version represented as (Int, Data.Map Int Any)

* 0.4.0.0
  - Removed Emit typeclass, breaking renames. Added label accessors.

* 0.5.0.0
  - Renamed type level functions module from Type to TypeLevel

* 0.6.0.0
  - Moved lens to data-diverse-lens

* 0.7.0.0
  - Removed NOINLINE pragmas.
  - Changed internal representation to (Int, Data.IntMap Any) for a 2.5x append speedup.

* 0.8.0.0
  - Changed internal representation to (Data.Seq Any) for a further 2x append speedup.
  - Added NFData instance for Many.

* 0.8.1.0
  - Added NFData instance for Which.
  - Forgot to expose Many.sliceL and Many.sliceR.

* 0.9.0.0
  - Breaking changes: Renamed Many.sliceL/R to Many.viewf/b
  - Renamed TypeLevel.Internal.MissingImpl to IsUniqueImpl.
  - Added postifx' with SnocUnique and append' with AppendUnique.
  - Added Semigroup & Monoid instances for `Many '[]` and `Which '[]`
  - Fixed GHC 8.2 compile error with importing GHC.Prim (Any)

* 0.9.0.1
  - Fixed GHC 8.2.1 test failure due to changed TypeRep show instance.

* 0.10.0.0
  - Renamed 'Switch' to 'Switcher'. Switch is now a type synonym for 'switch' constraints
  - Added CasesResult type family to help infer the result of 'cases'
  - Added Semigroup and Monoid instances for all Many xs.
  - Added Maybe versions of trial, and reinterpret
  - Renamed 'reinterpetN' to 'reinterpretN''
  - Renamed 'impossible' to 'zilch'.
  - Allowed 'reintepret'ing and 'diversify'ing 'zilch' to 'zilch'
  - Removed zipped type variable from 'Amend' constraints.
  - Removed r type variable from 'Reduce' typeclass.
  - Rearranged type variables in 'fetch', 'replace', 'pick', 'trial', 'Diversify' type parameters,
    so the type variable ordering is consistently smaller to larger, ie. 'x', 'xs', 'branch', 'tree'
  - Added 'diversify'' for allowing rearranging the types only.
