- Synopsis
- A tiny part of the lens library which you can depend upon
- Description
This is an extract from lens (with no dependencies). It's not a toy lenses library, unsuitable for “real world”, but merely a small one. It is compatible with lens, and should have same performance. It also has better documentation.
Use this library:
if you want to define lenses or traversals in your own library, but don't want to depend on lens
if you are new to lenses and want a small library to play with, but don't want to use something “inferior” or have to relearn things when/if you switch to lens
Don't use this library:
if you need
Iso
s,Prism
s, indexed traversals, or actually anything else which isn't defined hereif you want a library with a clean, understandable implementation (in which case you're looking for lens-simple)
If you're writing an application which uses lenses more extensively, look at microlens-platform – it combines features of all other microlens packages (microlens-mtl, microlens-th, microlens-ghc).
There's a longer readme on Github, you should read it if you're still interested about using this library.
If you haven't ever used lenses before, read this tutorial. (It's for lens, but it applies to microlens just as well.)
Note that microlens has no dependencies starting from GHC 7.10 (base-4.8). Prior to that, it has to depend on transformers-0.2 or above.
