hinter: Runtime Haskell interpreter (GHC API wrapper)
Fork of hint
This library defines an Interpreter monad. It allows to load Haskell modules, browse them, type-check and evaluate strings with Haskell expressions and even coerce them into values. The library is thread-safe and type-safe (even the coercion of expressions to values). It is, essentially, a huge subset of the GHC API wrapped in a simpler API.

[back to package description]hint
This library defines an Interpreter monad. It allows to load Haskell modules, browse them, type-check and evaluate strings with Haskell expressions and even coerce them into values. The library is thread-safe and type-safe (even the coercion of expressions to values).
It is, essentially, a huge subset of the GHC API wrapped in a simpler API.
Compatibility is kept with the three last major GHC releases. For example, if the current version is GHC 8.4, Hint will work on 8.4, 8.2 and 8.0.
