Language.Scheme.Types

This module contains top-level data type definitions, environments, error types, and associated functions.

Environments

data Env

A Scheme environment containing variable bindings of form (namespaceName, variableName), variableValue

Constructors

Environment

Fields

parentEnv :: Maybe Env

bindings :: IORef (Map String (IORef LispVal))

pointers :: IORef (Map String (IORef [LispVal]))

nullEnv :: IO Env

An empty environment

Error Handling

data LispError

Types of errors that may occur when evaluating Scheme code

Constructors

NumArgs (Maybe Integer) [LispVal]

Invalid number of function arguments

TypeMismatch String LispVal

Type error

Parser ParseError

Parsing error

BadSpecialForm String LispVal

Invalid special (built-in) form | NotFunction String String

UnboundVar String String

A referenced variable has not been declared

DivideByZero

Divide by Zero error

NotImplemented String

Feature is not implemented

InternalError String

An internal error within husk; in theory user (Scheme) code should never allow one of these errors to be triggered.

Default String

Default error

Instances

Show LispError

Error LispError

type ThrowsError = Either LispError

Container used by operations that could throw an error

type IOThrowsError = ErrorT LispError IO

Container used to provide error handling in the IO monad

liftThrows :: ThrowsError a -> IOThrowsError a

Lift a ThrowsError into the IO monad

Types and related functions

data LispVal

Scheme data types

Constructors

Atom String

Symbol

List [LispVal]

List

DottedList [LispVal] LispVal

Pair

Vector (Array Int LispVal)

Vector

ByteVector ByteString

ByteVector from R7RS

HashTable (Map LispVal LispVal)

Hash table. Technically this could be a derived data type instead of being built-in to the interpreter. And perhaps in the future it will be. But for now, a hash table is too important of a data type to not be included.

Number Integer

Integer number

Float Double

Double-precision floating point number

Complex (Complex Double)

Complex number

Rational Rational

Rational number

String String

String

Char Char

Character

Bool Bool

Boolean

PrimitiveFunc ([LispVal] -> ThrowsError LispVal)

Primitive function

Func

Function written in Scheme

Fields

params :: [String]

vararg :: Maybe String

body :: [LispVal]

closure :: Env

HFunc

Function formed from a Haskell function

Fields

hparams :: [String]

hvararg :: Maybe String

hbody :: Env -> LispVal -> LispVal -> Maybe [LispVal] -> IOThrowsError LispVal

hclosure :: Env

IOFunc ([LispVal] -> IOThrowsError LispVal)

Primitive function within the IO monad

EvalFunc ([LispVal] -> IOThrowsError LispVal)

Function within the IO monad with access to the current environment and continuation.

CustFunc ([LispVal] -> IOThrowsError LispVal)

A custom function written by code outside of husk. Any code that uses the Haskell API should define custom functions using this data type.

Pointer

Pointer to an environment variable.

Fields

pointerVar :: String

pointerEnv :: Env

Opaque Dynamic

Opaque Haskell value.

Port Handle

I/O port

Continuation

Continuation

Fields

contClosure :: Env

currentCont :: Maybe DeferredCode

nextCont :: Maybe LispVal

extraReturnArgs :: Maybe [LispVal]

dynamicWind :: Maybe [DynamicWinders]

Syntax

Type to hold a syntax object that is created by a macro definition. Syntax objects are not used like regular types in that they are not passed around within variables. In other words, you cannot use set! to assign a variable to a syntax object. But they are used during function application. In any case, it is convenient to define the type here because syntax objects are stored in the same environments and manipulated by the same functions as regular variables.

Fields

synClosure :: Maybe Env

Code env in effect at definition time, if applicable

synRenameClosure :: Maybe Env

Renames (from macro hygiene) in effect at def time; only applicable if this macro defined inside another macro.

synDefinedInMacro :: Bool

Set if macro is defined within another macro

synEllipsis :: String

String to use as the ellipsis identifier

synIdentifiers :: [LispVal]

Literal identifiers from syntax-rules

synRules :: [LispVal]

Rules from syntax-rules

SyntaxExplicitRenaming LispVal

Syntax for an explicit-renaming macro

LispEnv Env

Wrapper for a scheme environment

EOF

End of file indicator

Nil String

Internal use only; do not use this type directly.

Instances

Ord LispVal

Show LispVal

Allow conversion of lispval instances to strings

nullLisp :: LispVal

toOpaque :: Typeable a => a -> LispVal

Convert a Haskell value to an opaque Lisp value.

fromOpaque :: forall a. Typeable a => LispVal -> ThrowsError a
