pipes-safe builds upon
the pipes library to
provide exception safety and resource management.
- Install the Haskell Platform
cabal install pipes-safe
The official tutorial is on Hackage.
-
Resource Safety: Guarantee finalization using
finally,bracket, and more -
Exception Safety: Even against asynchronous exceptions!
-
Laziness: Only acquire resources when you need them
-
Promptness: Finalize resources early when you are done with them
-
Native Exception Handling: Catch and resume from exceptions inside pipes
-
No Buy-in: Mix resource-safe pipes with unmanaged pipes using
hoist
Use pipes-safe for production code where you need deterministic and prompt
release of resources in the fact of exceptions or premature pipe termination.
pipes-safe lets you safely acquire resources and handle exceptions within
pipelines.
pipes-safe is mostly stable. Research into prompter finalization alternatives
will take place in a separate library.
