libghc-snap-core-doc - 1.0.5.0-1 main

Snap is a simple and fast web development framework and server written in
Haskell. For more information or to download the latest version, you can
visit the Snap project website at .
.
This library contains the core definitions and types for the Snap framework,
including:
.
1. Primitive types and functions for HTTP (requests, responses, cookies,
post/query parameters, etc)
.
2. Type aliases and helper functions for Iteratee I/O
.
3. A monad for programming web handlers called \"Snap\", inspired by
happstack's (), which allows:
.
o Stateful access to the HTTP request and response objects
.
o Monadic failure (i.e. MonadPlus/Alternative instances) for declining
to handle requests and chaining handlers together
.
o Early termination of the computation if you know early what you want
to return and want to prevent further monadic processing
.
This package contains the documentation files.
