# Haskell contribution layer for Spacemacs
![logo](img/haskell.png)
This layer adds support for the [Haskell][] language.
The layer uses company-ghc for completetion.
**This layer is still not fully adapted for Spacemacs, it needs you, Haskell experts, to
improve it and make it consistent with the Spacemacs experience.**
## Install
To use this contribution add it to your `~/.spacemacs`
```elisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(haskell)
"List of contribution to load."
)
```
This layer requires some external binaries to function.
These are listed below, and can all be installed with `cabal install`:
- `ghc-mod`
- `hlint`
- `stylish-haskell`
Next Emacs needs to know of the directory of the binaries `~/.cabal/bin/` (or where ever cabal installs to by default on your system), which means that the directory has to be either added to your systems' `$PATH` or to Emacs' own `exec-path`.
Only one of the options below is needed:
- Add it to `$PATH`:
`export PATH=~/.cabal/bin/:$PATH`
Sidenote: emacs.app for OS X does not pick up `$PATH` from `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc` when launched from outside a terminal.
- Add it to Emacs, add the following to `.spacemacs` in `dotspacemacs/config`:
`(add-to-list 'exec-path "~/.cabal/bin/")`
