pointless-lenses-0.0.8: README

Pointless Lenses

This cabal package can be installed with:

$ cabal install pointless-lenses

For a manual install, execute:

$ runhaskell Setup.lhs configure
$ runhaskell Setup.lhs build
$ runhaskell Setup.lhs install

You can now start playing with the example code that comes with the library, under Language.Pointless.Examples.Examples.
The easiest way is to create a new module that imports some library modules

module Test where

import Test.QuickCheck.Test
import Generics.Pointless.Lenses
import Generics.Pointless.Lenses.Examples.Examples

and interpret it

$ ghci Test.hs

We can now test the well-behavedness of some lens, for example:

> quickCheck (wb filter_left_lns)
+++ OK, passed 100 tests.

Or run some example and later check what it is actually doing:
> put filter_left_lns ([1,2,3],[Left 0,Right 'a',Left 4])
[Left 1,Right 'a',Left 2,Left 3]
