Haskell contribution layer for Spacemacs
Table of Contents
Description
This layer adds support for the Haskell language.
Features:
- auto-completion with company-ghc,
- auto-indentation with hi2.
This layer is in construction, it needs your contributions and bug reports.
Install
Layer
To use this contribution add it to your ~/.spacemacs
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(haskell))
Cabal packages
This layer requires some cabal packages:
ghc-modhlintstylish-haskell
To install them, use the following command:
cabal install stylish-haskell hlint ghc-mod
Next Emacs needs to know where to find these binaries, you can locate them with the following shell command:
dirname $(which ghc-mod)
Then you have to add this path to your system $PATH (preferred):
export PATH=~/.cabal/bin/:$PATH
or to the Emacs exec-path variable in the dotspacemacs/init function of
your .spacemacs file:
(add-to-list 'exec-path "~/.cabal/bin/")
Note: it is important to add the path in the dotspacemacs/init function,
so that the path is added before any layers is loaded.
OS X
Note that emacs.app for OS X does not pick up $PATH from ~/.bashrc or
~/.zshrc when launched from outside a terminal.
Key bindings
All Haskell specific bindings are prefixed with SPC m
Haskell source code:
Haskell commands:
Top-level commands are prefixed by SPC m:
Key Binding | Description
----------------------|------------------------------------------------------------ SPC m t | gets the type of the identifier under the cursor SPC m i | gets information for the identifier under the cursor SPC m u | finds uses of identifier SPC m g | go to definition or tag SPC m f | format buffer using haskell-stylish
Documentation commands:
Documentation commands are prefixed by SPC m h
Key Binding | Description
----------------------|------------------------------------------------------------ SPC m h d | find or generate Haddock documentation for the identifier under the cursor SPC m h h | do a Hoogle lookup SPC m h y | do a Hayoo lookup
Cabal commands:
Cabal commands are prefixed by SPC m c:
Key Binding | Description
----------------------|------------------------------------------------------------
SPC m c a | cabal actions
SPC m c b | build the current cabal project, i.e. invoke cabal build
SPC m c c | compile the current project, i.e. invoke ghc
SPC m c v | visit the cabal file
Debug commands:
Debug commands are prefixed by SPC m d:
Key Binding | Description
----------------------|------------------------------------------------------------ SPC m d d | start debug process, needs to be run first SPC m d b | insert breakpoint at function SPC m d n | next breakpoint SPC m d N | previous breakpoint SPC m d B | delete breakpoint SPC m d c | continue current process SPC m d a | abandon current process SPC m d r | refresh process buffer
REPL commands:
REPL commands are prefixed by SPC m s:
Key Binding | Description
----------------------|------------------------------------------------------------ SPC m s b | load or reload the current buffer into the REPL SPC m s c | clear the REPL SPC m s s | show the REPL SPC m s S | show and switch to the REPL
Cabal files:
Key Binding | Description
----------------------|------------------------------------------------------------ SPC m d | add a dependency to the project SPC m b | go to benchmark section SPC m e | go to executable section SPC m t | go to test-suite section SPC m m | go to exposed modules SPC m l | go to libary section SPC m n | go to next subsection SPC m p | go to previous subsection SPC m N | go to next section SPC m P | go to previous section SPC m f | find or create source-file under the cursor
