Description

Main module of generics-sop

In most cases, you will probably want to import just this module, and possibly Generics.SOP.TH if you want to use Template Haskell to generate Generic instances for you.

Generic programming with sums of products

You need this library if you want to define your own generic functions in the sum-of-products SOP style. Generic programming in the SOP style follows the following idea:

  1. A large class of datatypes can be viewed in a uniform, structured way: the choice between constructors is represented using an n-ary sum (called NS), and the arguments of each constructor are represented using an n-ary product (called NP).
  2. The library captures the notion of a datatype being representable in the following way. There is a class Generic, which for a given datatype A, associates the isomorphic SOP representation with the original type under the name Rep A. The class also provides functions from and to that convert between A and Rep A and witness the isomorphism.
  3. Since all Rep types are sums of products, you can define functions over them by performing induction on the structure, of by using predefined combinators that the library provides. Such functions then work for all Rep types.
  4. By combining the conversion functions from and to with the function that works on Rep types, we obtain a function that works on all types that are in the Generic class.
  5. Most types can very easily be made an instance of Generic. For example, if the datatype can be represented using GHC's built-in approach to generic programming and has an instance for the Generic class from module GHC.Generics, then an instance of the SOP Generic can automatically be derived. There is also Template Haskell code in Generics.SOP.TH that allows to auto-generate an instance of Generic for most types.

Example

Instantiating a datatype for use with SOP generics

Let's assume we have the datatypes:

data A   = C Bool | D A Int | E (B ())
data B a = F | G a Char Bool

To create Generic instances for A and B via GHC.Generics, we say

{-# LANGUAGE DeriveGenerics #-}

import qualified GHC.Generics as GHC
import Generics.SOP

data A   = C Bool | D A Int | E (B ())
  deriving (Show, GHC.Generic)
data B a = F | G a Char Bool
  deriving (Show, GHC.Generic)

instance Generic A     -- empty
instance Generic (B a) -- empty

Now we can convert between A and Rep A (and between B and Rep B). For example,

>>> from (D (C True) 3) :: Rep A
SOP (S (Z (I (C True) :* I 3 :* Nil)))
>>> to it :: A
D (C True) 3

Note that the transformation is shallow: In D (C True) 3, the inner value C True of type A is not affected by the transformation.

For more details about Rep A, have a look at the Generics.SOP.Universe module.

Defining a generic function

As an example of a generic function, let us define a generic version of rnf from the deepseq package.

The type of rnf is

NFData a => a -> ()

and the idea is that for a term x of type a in the NFData class, rnf x forces complete evaluation of x (i.e., evaluation to normal form), and returns ().

We call the generic version of this function grnf. A direct definition in SOP style, making use of structural recursion on the sums and products, looks as follows:

grnf :: (Generic a, All2 NFData (Code a)) => a -> ()
grnf x = grnfS (from x)

grnfS :: (All2 NFData xss) => SOP I xss -> ()
grnfS (SOP (Z xs))  = grnfP xs
grnfS (SOP (S xss)) = grnfS (SOP xss)

grnfP :: (All NFData xs) => NP I xs -> ()
grnfP Nil         = ()
grnfP (I x :* xs) = x `deepseq` (grnfP xs)

The grnf function performs the conversion between a and Rep a by applying from and then applies grnfS. The type of grnf indicates that a must be in the Generic class so that we can apply from, and that all the components of a (i.e., all the types that occur as constructor arguments) must be in the NFData class (All2).

The function grnfS traverses the outer sum structure of the sum of products (note that Rep a = SOP I (Code a)). It encodes which constructor was used to construct the original argument of type a. Once we've found the constructor in question (Z), we traverse the arguments of that constructor using grnfP.

The function grnfP traverses the product structure of the constructor arguments. Each argument is evaluated using the deepseq function from the NFData class. This requires that all components of the product must be in the NFData class (All) and triggers the corresponding constraints on the other functions. Once the end of the product is reached (Nil), we return ().

Defining a generic function using combinators

In many cases, generic functions can be written in a much more concise way by avoiding the explicit structural recursion and resorting to the powerful combinators provided by this library instead.

For example, the grnf function can also be defined as a one-liner as follows:

grnf :: (Generic a, All2 NFData (Code a)) => a -> ()
grnf = rnf . hcollapse . hcliftA (Proxy :: Proxy NFData) (\ (I x) -> K (rnf x)) . from

The following interaction should provide an idea of the individual transformation steps:

>>> let x = G 2.5 'A' False :: B Double
>>> from x
SOP (S (Z (I 2.5 :* I 'A' :* I False :* Nil)))
>>> hcliftA (Proxy :: Proxy NFData) (\ (I x) -> K (rnf x)) it
SOP (S (Z (K () :* K () :* K () :* Nil)))
>>> hcollapse it
[(),(),()]
>>> rnf it
()

The from call converts into the structural representation. Via hcliftA, we apply rnf to all the components. The result is a sum of products of the same shape, but the components are no longer heterogeneous (I), but homogeneous (K ()). A homogeneous structure can be collapsed (hcollapse) into a normal Haskell list. Finally, rnf actually forces evaluation of this list (and thereby actually drives the evaluation of all the previous steps) and produces the final result.

Using a generic function

We can directly invoke grnf on any type that is an instance of class Generic.

>>> grnf (G 2.5 'A' False)
()
>>> grnf (G 2.5 undefined False)
*** Exception: Prelude.undefined

Note that the type of grnf requires that all components of the type are in the NFData class. For a recursive datatype such as B, this means that we have to make A (and in this case, also B) an instance of NFData in order to be able to use the grnf function. But we can use grnf to supply the instance definitions:

instance NFData A where rnf = grnf
instance NFData a => NFData (B a) where rnf = grnf

More examples

The best way to learn about how to define generic functions in the SOP style is to look at a few simple examples. Examples are provided by the following packages:

The generic functions in these packages use a wide variety of the combinators that are offered by the library.

Paper

A detailed description of the ideas behind this library is provided by the paper:

Synopsis

Codes and interpretations

class (SingI (Code a), All SingI (Code a)) => Generic a where Source

The class of representable datatypes.

The SOP approach to generic programming is based on viewing datatypes as a representation (Rep) built from the sum of products of its components. The components of are datatype are specified using the Code type family.

The isomorphism between the original Haskell datatype and its representation is witnessed by the methods of this class, from and to. So for instances of this class, the following laws should (in general) hold:

to . from === id :: a -> a
from . to === id :: Rep a -> Rep a

You typically don't define instances of this class by hand, but rather derive the class instance automatically.

Option 1: Derive via the built-in GHC-generics. For this, you need to use the DeriveGeneric extension to first derive an instance of the Generic class from module GHC.Generics. With this, you can then give an empty instance for Generic, and the default definitions will just work. The pattern looks as follows:

import qualified GHC.Generics as GHC
import Generics.SOP

...

data T = ... deriving (GHC.Generic, ...)

instance Generic T -- empty
instance HasDatatypeInfo T -- empty, if you want/need metadata

Option 2: Derive via Template Haskell. For this, you need to enable the TemplateHaskell extension. You can then use deriveGeneric from module Generics.SOP.TH to have the instance generated for you. The pattern looks as follows:

import Generics.SOP
import Generics.SOP.TH

...

data T = ...

deriveGeneric ''T -- derives HasDatatypeInfo as well

Tradeoffs: Whether to use Option 1 or 2 is mainly a matter of personal taste. The version based on Template Haskell probably has less run-time overhead.

Non-standard instances: It is possible to give Generic instances manually that deviate from the standard scheme, as long as at least

to . from === id :: a -> a

still holds.

Associated Types

type Code a :: [[*]] Source

The code of a datatype.

This is a list of lists of its components. The outer list contains one element per constructor. The inner list contains one element per constructor argument (field).

Example: The datatype

data Tree = Leaf Int | Node Tree Tree

is supposed to have the following code:

type instance Code (Tree a) =
  '[ '[ Int ]
   , '[ Tree, Tree ]
   ]

Methods

from :: a -> Rep a Source

Converts from a value to its structural representation.

to :: Rep a -> a Source

Converts from a structural representation back to the original value.

type Rep a = SOP I (Code a) Source

The (generic) representation of a datatype.

A datatype is isomorphic to the sum-of-products of its code. The isomorphism is witnessed by from and to from the Generic class.

n-ary datatypes

data NP :: (k -> *) -> [k] -> * where Source

An n-ary product.

The product is parameterized by a type constructor f and indexed by a type-level list xs. The length of the list determines the number of elements in the product, and if the i-th element of the list is of type x, then the i-th element of the product is of type f x.

The constructor names are chosen to resemble the names of the list constructors.

Two common instantiations of f are the identity functor I and the constant functor K. For I, the product becomes a heterogeneous list, where the type-level list describes the types of its components. For K a, the product becomes a homogeneous list, where the contents of the type-level list are ignored, but its length still specifies the number of elements.

In the context of the SOP approach to generic programming, an n-ary product describes the structure of the arguments of a single data constructor.

Examples:

I 'x'    :* I True  :* Nil  ::  NP I       '[ Char, Bool ]
K 0      :* K 1     :* Nil  ::  NP (K Int) '[ Char, Bool ]
Just 'x' :* Nothing :* Nil  ::  NP Maybe   '[ Char, Bool ]

type CollapseTo k [k] (NP k) = [] 
type Prod k [k] (NP k) = NP k 
type AllMap k [k] (NP k) c xs = All k c xs 

data NS :: (k -> *) -> [k] -> * where Source

An n-ary sum.

The sum is parameterized by a type constructor f and indexed by a type-level list xs. The length of the list determines the number of choices in the sum and if the i-th element of the list is of type x, then the i-th choice of the sum is of type f x.

The constructor names are chosen to resemble Peano-style natural numbers, i.e., Z is for "zero", and S is for "successor". Chaining S and Z chooses the corresponding component of the sum.

Examples:

Z         :: f x -> NS f (x ': xs)
S . Z     :: f y -> NS f (x ': y ': xs)
S . S . Z :: f z -> NS f (x ': y ': z ': xs)
...

Note that empty sums (indexed by an empty list) have no non-bottom elements.

Two common instantiations of f are the identity functor I and the constant functor K. For I, the sum becomes a direct generalization of the Either type to arbitrarily many choices. For K a, the result is a homogeneous choice type, where the contents of the type-level list are ignored, but its length specifies the number of options.

In the context of the SOP approach to generic programming, an n-ary sum describes the top-level structure of a datatype, which is a choice between all of its constructors.

Examples:

Z (I 'x')      :: NS I       '[ Char, Bool ]
S (Z (I True)) :: NS I       '[ Char, Bool ]
S (Z (I 1))    :: NS (K Int) '[ Char, Bool ]

type CollapseTo k [k] (NS k) = I 
type Prod k [k] (NS k) = NP k 

newtype SOP f xss Source

A sum of products.

This is a 'newtype' for an NS of an NP. The elements of the (inner) products are applications of the parameter f. The type SOP is indexed by the list of lists that determines the sizes of both the (outer) sum and all the (inner) products, as well as the types of all the elements of the inner products.

An SOP I reflects the structure of a normal Haskell datatype. The sum structure represents the choice between the different constructors, the product structure represents the arguments of each constructor.

Unwrap a sum of products.

newtype POP f xss Source

A product of products.

This is a 'newtype' for an NP of an NP. The elements of the inner products are applications of the parameter f. The type POP is indexed by the list of lists that determines the lengths of both the outer and all the inner products, as well as the types of all the elements of the inner products.

A POP is reminiscent of a two-dimensional table (but the inner lists can all be of different length). In the context of the SOP approach to generic programming, a POP is useful to represent information that is available for all arguments of all constructors of a datatype.

Metadata

data DatatypeInfo :: [[*]] -> * where Source

Metadata for a datatype.

A value of type DatatypeInfo c contains the information about a datatype that is not contained in Code c. This information consists primarily of the names of the datatype, its constructors, and possibly its record selectors.

The constructor indicates whether the datatype has been declared using newtype or not.

data FieldInfo :: * -> * where Source

For records, this functor maps the component to its selector name.

Constructors

Instances

class HasDatatypeInfo a where Source

A class of datatypes that have associated metadata.

It is possible to use the sum-of-products approach to generic programming without metadata. If you need metadata in a function, an additional constraint on this class is in order.

You typically don't define instances of this class by hand, but rather derive the class instance automatically. See the documentation of Generic for the options.

Combinators

Constructing products

class HPure h where Source

A generalization of pure or return to higher kinds.

Methods

hpure :: SingI xs => (forall a. f a) -> h f xs Source

Corresponds to pure directly.

Instances:

hpure, pure_NP  :: SingI xs  => (forall a. f a) -> NP  f xs
hpure, pure_POP :: SingI xss => (forall a. f a) -> POP f xss

hcpure :: (SingI xs, AllMap h c xs) => Proxy c -> (forall a. c a => f a) -> h f xs Source

A variant of hpure that allows passing in a constrained argument.

Calling hcpure f s where s :: h f xs causes f to be applied at all the types that are contained in xs. Therefore, the constraint c has to be satisfied for all elements of xs, which is what AllMap h c xs states.

Morally, hpure is a special case of hcpure where the constraint is empty. However, it is in the nature of how AllMap is defined as well as current GHC limitations that it is tricky to prove to GHC in general that AllMap h c NoConstraint xs is always satisfied. Therefore, we typically define hpure separately and directly, and make it a member of the class.

Instances:

hcpure, cpure_NP  :: (SingI xs,  All  c xs ) => Proxy c -> (forall a. c a => f a) -> NP  f xs
hcpure, cpure_POP :: (SingI xss, All2 c xss) => Proxy c -> (forall a. c a => f a) -> POP f xss

Fields

Instances

Typeable ((k -> *) -> (k -> *) -> k -> *) ((-.->) k) 

fn :: (f a -> f' a) -> (f -.-> f') a Source

Construct a lifted function.

Same as Fn. Only available for uniformity with the higher-arity versions.

fn_2 :: (f a -> f' a -> f'' a) -> (f -.-> (f' -.-> f'')) a Source

Construct a binary lifted function.

fn_3 :: (f a -> f' a -> f'' a -> f''' a) -> (f -.-> (f' -.-> (f'' -.-> f'''))) a Source

Construct a ternary lifted function.

fn_4 :: (f a -> f' a -> f'' a -> f''' a -> f'''' a) -> (f -.-> (f' -.-> (f'' -.-> (f''' -.-> f'''')))) a Source

Construct a quarternary lifted function.

type family Prod h :: (k -> *) -> l -> * Source

Maps a structure containing sums to the corresponding product structure.

type Prod k [[k]] (POP k) = POP k 
type Prod k [k] (NP k) = NP k 
type Prod k [[k]] (SOP k) = POP k 
type Prod k [k] (NS k) = NP k 

class (Prod (Prod h) ~ Prod h, HPure (Prod h)) => HAp h where Source

A generalization of <*>.

Methods

hap :: Prod h (f -.-> g) xs -> h f xs -> h g xs Source

Corresponds to <*>.

For products as well as products or products, the correspondence is rather direct. We combine a structure containing (lifted) functions and a compatible structure containing corresponding arguments into a compatible structure containing results.

The same combinator can also be used to combine a product structure of functions with a sum structure of arguments, which then results in another sum structure of results. The sum structure determines which part of the product structure will be used.

Instances:

hap, ap_NP  :: NP  (f -.-> g) xs  -> NP  f xs  -> NP  g xs
hap, ap_NS  :: NP  (f -.-> g) xs  -> NS  f xs  -> NS  g xs

hliftA3 :: (SingI xs, HAp h, HAp (Prod h)) => (forall a. f a -> f' a -> f'' a -> f''' a) -> Prod h f xs -> Prod h f' xs -> h f'' xs -> h f''' xs Source

Constructing sums

type Injection f xs = f -.-> K (NS f xs) Source

The type of injections into an n-ary sum.

If you expand the type synonyms and newtypes involved, you get

Injection f xs a = (f -.-> K (NS f xs)) a ~= f a -> K (NS f xs) a ~= f a -> NS f xs

If we pick a to be an element of xs, this indeed corresponds to an injection into the sum.

injections :: forall xs f. SingI xs => NP (Injection f xs) xs Source

Compute all injections into an n-ary sum.

Each element of the resulting product contains one of the injections.

shift :: Injection f xs a -> Injection f (x : xs) a Source

Shift an injection.

Given an injection, return an injection into a sum that is one component larger.

apInjs_NP :: SingI xs => NP f xs -> [NS f xs] Source

Apply injections to a product.

Given a product containing all possible choices, produce a list of sums by applying each injection to the appropriate element.

Example:

>>> apInjs_NP (I 'x' :* I True :* I 2 :* Nil)
[Z (I 'x'), S (Z (I True)), S (S (Z (I 2)))]

apInjs_POP :: SingI xss => POP f xss -> [SOP f xss] Source

Apply injections to a product of product.

This operates on the outer product only. Given a product containing all possible choices (that are products), produce a list of sums (of products) by applying each injection to the appropriate element.

Example:

>>> apInjs_POP (POP ((I 'x' :* Nil) :* (I True :* I 2 :* Nil) :* Nil))
[SOP (Z (I 'x' :* Nil)),SOP (S (Z (I True :* (I 2 :* Nil))))]

hcliftA' :: (All2 c xss, SingI xss, Prod h ~ NP, HAp h) => Proxy c -> (forall xs. (SingI xs, All c xs) => f xs -> f' xs) -> h f xss -> h f' xss Source

Lift a constrained function operating on a list-indexed structure to a function on a list-of-list-indexed structure.

This is a variant of hcliftA.

Specification:

hcliftA' p f xs = hpure (fn_2 $ \ AllDictC -> f) ` hap ` allDict_NP p ` hap ` xs

Instances:

hcliftA' :: (All2 c xss, SingI xss) => Proxy c -> (forall xs. (SingI xs, All c xs) => f xs -> f' xs) -> NP f xss -> NP f' xss

Mapping constraints

type family All c xs :: Constraint Source

Require a constraint for every element of a list.

If you have a datatype that is indexed over a type-level list, then you can use All to indicate that all elements of that type-level list must satisfy a given constraint.

Example: The constraint

All Eq '[ Int, Bool, Char ]

is equivalent to the constraint

(Eq Int, Eq Bool, Eq Char)

Example: A type signature such as

f :: All Eq xs => NP I xs -> ...

means that f can assume that all elements of the n-ary product satisfy Eq.

Instances

type All k c ([] k) = () 
type All k c ((:) k x xs) = (c x, All k c xs) 

type family All2 c xs :: Constraint Source

If you have a datatype that is indexed over a type-level list of lists, then you can use All2 to indicate that all elements of the innert lists must satisfy a given constraint.

Example: The constraint

All2 Eq '[ '[ Int ], '[ Bool, Char ] ]

is equivalent to the constraint

(Eq Int, Eq Bool, Eq Char)

Example: A type signature such as

f :: All2 Eq xss => SOP I xs -> ...

means that f can assume that all elements of the sum of product satisfy Eq.

type AllMap k [k] (NP k) c xs = All k c xs 

Singletons

data family Sing a Source

Explicit singleton.

A singleton can be used to reveal the structure of a type argument that the function is quantified over.

Eq (Sing * x) 
Ord (Sing [k] xs) 
Ord (Sing * x) 
Show (Sing [k] xs) 
Show (Sing * x) 
data Sing * = SStar

For types of kind *, we explicitly don't want to reveal more type analysis. Even functions that have a Sing constraint should still be parametric in everything that is of kind *.

data Sing [k] where

Singleton for type-level lists.

class SingI a where Source

Implicit singleton.

A singleton can be used to reveal the structure of a type argument that the function is quantified over.
