For more information or to download the latest version, you can - visit the Snap project website at <http://snapframework.com/>. - - 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 (<http://happstack.com/index.html>), which allows: - - * Stateful access to the HTTP request and response objects - - * Monadic failure (i.e. MonadPlus/Alternative instances) for declining - to handle requests and chaining handlers together - - * Early termination of the computation if you know early what you want - to return and want to prevent further monadic processing - - /Quick start/: The 'Snap' monad and HTTP definitions are in "Snap.Core", - some iteratee utilities are in "Snap.Iteratee". - - Higher-level facilities for building web applications (like user/session - management, component interfaces, data modeling, etc.) are planned but not - yet implemented, so this release will mostly be of interest for those who: - - * need a fast and minimal HTTP API at roughly the same level of abstraction - as Java servlets, or - - * are interested in contributing to the Snap Framework project. - </longdescription> </pkgmetadata> |
