Text.XML.Expat.Annotated

In the hexpat package, a list of nodes has the type [Node tag text], but note that you can also use the more general type function ListOf to give a list of any node type, using that node's associated list type, e.g. ListOf (UNode Text).

data NodeG a c tag text

Annotated variant of the tree representation of the XML document, meaning that it has an extra piece of information of your choice attached to each Element.

c is the container type for the element's children, which is [] in the hexpat package, and a monadic list type for hexpat-iteratee.

tag is the tag type, which can either be one of several string types, or a special type from the Text.XML.Expat.Namespaced or Text.XML.Expat.Qualified modules.

text is the string type for text content.

a is the type of the annotation. One of the things this can be used for is to store the XML parse location, which is useful for error handling.

Note that some functions in the Text.XML.Expat.Cursor module need to create new nodes through the MkElementClass type class. Normally this can only be done if a is a Maybe type or () (so it can provide the Nothing value for the annotation on newly created nodes). Or, you can write your own MkElementClass instance. Apart from that, there is no requirement for a to be a Maybe type.

Modify this node's annotation (non-recursively) if it's an element, otherwise no-op.

Modify this node's annotation and all its children recursively if it's an element, otherwise no-op.

Parse to tree

data ParseOptions tag text

Constructors

ParseOptions

overrideEncoding :: Maybe Encoding	The encoding parameter, if provided, overrides the document's encoding declaration.
entityDecoder :: Maybe (tag -> Maybe text)	If provided, entity references (i.e. ` ` and friends) will be decoded into text using the supplied lookup function

defaultParseOptions :: ParseOptions tag text

data Encoding

Encoding types available for the document encoding.

Constructors

parse

:: (GenericXMLString tag, GenericXMLString text)
=> ParseOptions tag text	Parse options
-> ByteString	Input text (a lazy ByteString)
-> (LNode tag text, Maybe XMLParseError)
Lazily parse XML to tree. Note that forcing the XMLParseError return value will force the entire parse. Therefore, to ensure lazy operation, don't check the error status until you have processed the tree.

parse'

:: (GenericXMLString tag, GenericXMLString text)
=> ParseOptions tag text	Parse options
-> ByteString	Input text (a strict ByteString)
-> Either XMLParseError (LNode tag text)
Strictly parse XML to tree. Returns error message or valid parsed tree.

data XMLParseError

Parse error, consisting of message text and error location

Constructors

XMLParseError String XMLParseLocation

Instances

Eq XMLParseError
Show XMLParseError
NFData XMLParseError

data XMLParseLocation

Specifies a location of an event within the input text

Constructors

XMLParseLocation

xmlLineNumber :: Int64	Line number of the event
xmlColumnNumber :: Int64	Column number of the event
xmlByteIndex :: Int64	Byte index of event from start of document
xmlByteCount :: Int64	The number of bytes in the event

Instances

NFData XMLParseLocation

Variant that throws exceptions

parseThrowing

:: (GenericXMLString tag, GenericXMLString text)
=> ParseOptions tag text	Parse options
-> ByteString	Input text (a lazy ByteString)
-> LNode tag text
Lazily parse XML to tree. In the event of an error, throw `XMLParseException`. `parseThrowing` can throw an exception from pure code, which is generally a bad way to handle errors, because Haskell's lazy evaluation means it's hard to predict where it will be thrown from. However, it may be acceptable in situations where it's not expected during normal operation, depending on the design of your program.

data XMLParseException

An exception indicating an XML parse error, used by the ..Throwing variants.

Constructors

XMLParseException XMLParseError

Instances

Eq XMLParseException
Show XMLParseException
Typeable XMLParseException
Exception XMLParseException

Convert from SAX

saxToTree :: GenericXMLString tag => [(SAXEvent tag text, a)] -> (Node a tag text, Maybe XMLParseError)

A lower level function that lazily converts a SAX stream into a tree structure. Variant that takes annotations for start tags.

Abstraction of string types

class (Monoid s, Eq s) => GenericXMLString s where

An abstraction for any string type you want to use as xml text (that is, attribute values or element text content). If you want to use a new string type with hexpat, you must make it an instance of GenericXMLString.

Methods

gxNullString :: s -> Bool

gxToString :: s -> String

gxFromString :: String -> s

gxFromChar :: Char -> s

gxHead :: s -> Char

gxTail :: s -> s

gxBreakOn :: Char -> s -> (s, s)

gxFromCStringLen :: CStringLen -> IO s

gxToByteString :: s -> ByteString
