Module : Hypermedia.Datastar.WAI
Description : SSE streaming and request handling for WAI
This module connects Datastar to WAI (Web Application Interface), Haskell's
standard HTTP server interface. It provides:
* 'sseResponse' — create a streaming SSE response with a
'ServerSentEventGenerator' callback
* 'sendPatchElements', 'sendPatchSignals', 'sendExecuteScript' — send
Datastar events through the open connection
* 'readSignals' — decode signals sent by the browser (from query params on
GET, or from the request body on POST)
* 'isDatastarRequest' — distinguish Datastar SSE requests from normal
page loads
=== Streaming architecture
'sseResponse' uses WAI's @responseStream@ to hold the HTTP connection open.
You receive a 'ServerSentEventGenerator' and call @send*@ functions as many
times as needed. The connection stays open until your callback returns (or
the client disconnects).
=== Thread safety
The 'ServerSentEventGenerator' uses an internal 'Control.Concurrent.MVar.MVar'
lock, so it is safe to call @send*@ functions from multiple threads
concurrently.
=== How signals flow from browser to server
When the browser makes a Datastar request, signals are sent as JSON:
* __GET requests__: signals are URL-encoded in the @datastar@ query parameter
* __POST requests__: signals are in the request body as JSON
Use 'readSignals' with any 'Data.Aeson.FromJSON' instance to decode them.
