The Get type

data Get a #

The Get monad is an Exception and State monad.

runGet :: Get a -> ByteString -> Either String a #

Run the Get monad applies a get-based parser on the input ByteString

runGetLazy :: Get a -> ByteString -> Either String a #

Run the Get monad over a Lazy ByteString. Note that this will not run the Get parser lazily, but will operate on lazy ByteStrings.

runGetState :: Get a -> ByteString -> Int -> Either String (a, ByteString) #

Run the Get monad applies a get-based parser on the input ByteString. Additional to the result of get it returns the number of consumed bytes and the rest of the input.

runGetLazyState :: Get a -> ByteString -> Either String (a, ByteString) #

Run the Get monad over a Lazy ByteString. Note that this does not run the Get parser lazily, but will operate on lazy ByteStrings.

Incremental interface

data Result r #

The result of a parse.

Constructors

Fail String ByteString	The parse failed. The `String` is the message describing the error, if any.
Partial (ByteString -> Result r)	Supply this continuation with more input so that the parser can resume. To indicate that no more input is available, use an `empty` string.
Done r ByteString	The parse succeeded. The `ByteString` is the input that had not yet been consumed (if any) when the parse succeeded.

Instances

Functor Result #
Instance details Defined in Data.Serialize.Get Methods fmap :: (a -> b) -> Result a -> Result b # (<$) :: a -> Result b -> Result a #
Show r => Show (Result r) #
Instance details Defined in Data.Serialize.Get Methods showsPrec :: Int -> Result r -> ShowS # show :: Result r -> String # showList :: [Result r] -> ShowS #

runGetPartial :: Get a -> ByteString -> Result a #

Run the Get monad applies a get-based parser on the input ByteString

runGetChunk :: Get a -> Maybe Int -> ByteString -> Result a #

Run the get monad on a single chunk, providing an optional length for the remaining, unseen input, with Nothing indicating that it's not clear how much input is left. For example, with a lazy ByteString, the optional length represents the sum of the lengths of all remaining chunks.

Parsing

ensure :: Int -> Get ByteString #

If at least n bytes of input are available, return the current input, otherwise fail.

isolate :: Int -> Get a -> Get a #

Isolate an action to operating within a fixed block of bytes. The action is required to consume all the bytes that it is isolated to.

label :: String -> Get a -> Get a #

skip :: Int -> Get () #

Skip ahead n bytes. Fails if fewer than n bytes are available.

uncheckedSkip :: Int -> Get () #

Skip ahead up to n bytes in the current chunk. No error if there aren't enough bytes, or if less than n bytes are skipped.

lookAhead :: Get a -> Get a #

Run ga, but return without consuming its input. Fails if ga fails.

lookAheadM :: Get (Maybe a) -> Get (Maybe a) #

Like lookAhead, but consume the input if gma returns 'Just _'. Fails if gma fails.

lookAheadE :: Get (Either a b) -> Get (Either a b) #

Like lookAhead, but consume the input if gea returns 'Right _'. Fails if gea fails.

uncheckedLookAhead :: Int -> Get ByteString #

Get the next up to n bytes as a ByteString until end of this chunk, without consuming them.

bytesRead :: Get Int #

Get the number of bytes read up to this point

Utility

getBytes :: Int -> Get ByteString #

Pull n bytes from the input, as a strict ByteString.

remaining :: Get Int #

Get the number of remaining unparsed bytes. Useful for checking whether all input has been consumed.

WARNING: when run with runGetPartial, remaining will only return the number of bytes that are remaining in the current input.

isEmpty :: Get Bool #

Test whether all input has been consumed.

WARNING: when run with runGetPartial, isEmpty will only tell you if you're at the end of the current chunk.

Parsing particular types

Read a Word8 from the monad state

getInt8 :: Get Int8 #

Read a Int8 from the monad state

ByteStrings

getByteString :: Int -> Get ByteString #
