System.Console.Haskeline.IO
This module provides a stateful, IO-based interface to Haskeline, which may be easier to integrate into some existing programs or libraries.
It is strongly recommended to use the safer, monadic API of System.Console.Haskeline, if possible, rather than the explicit state management functions of this module.
The equivalent REPL example is:
import System.Console.Haskeline
import System.Console.Haskeline.IO
import Control.Concurrent
main = bracketOnError (initializeInput defaultSettings)
cancelInput -- This will only be called if an exception such
-- as a SigINT is received.
(\hd -> loop hd >> closeInput hd)
where
loop :: InputState -> IO ()
loop hd = do
minput <- queryInput hd (getInputLine "% ")
case minput of
Nothing -> return ()
Just "quit" -> return ()
Just input -> do queryInput hd $ outputStrLn
$ "Input was: " ++ input
loop hd

Initialize a session of line-oriented user interaction.
Finish and clean up the line-oriented user interaction session. Blocks on an existing call to queryInput.
Cancel and clean up the user interaction session. Does not block on an existing call to queryInput.
Run one action (for example, getInputLine) as part of a session of user interaction.
For example, multiple calls to queryInput using the same InputState will share the same input history. In constrast, multiple calls to runInputT will use distinct histories unless they share the same history file.
This function should not be called on a closed or cancelled InputState.
