Hi, those functions were moved to a separate package, Spock-core
. You can find the Request Handling section here. I know this could be more obvious, I'm trying to help with improving docs at the moment.
Yeah, all these functions are now "hidden" behind module Web.Spock.Action
. Maybe we should reexport all the individual functions for good documentation, but then when making changes to Web.Spock.Action
one has to be real careful to update all the reexports, so not a big fan...
I've been looking into doing this "the right way", which IMO would be showing the entire contents of Web.Spock.Action
in Web.Spock
without having to manually reexport everything. This is described in the Haddock docs, specifically the hide
Haddock option, but doesn't seem to work for me (there seem to be a number of issues with module reexports in Haddock, so it might be due to one of them). Unless/until there is a way to make this work, I suggest either:
Web.Spock.Action
individually.Web.Spock.Action
Alternatively we could introduce a dummy identifier and then use hiding
when importing/reexporting it. That could work?
I think that should work, but I tried using hiding
myself and couldn't get it to work, I'm assuming it's another Haddock issue.
Hm... Then maybe just highlighting a link to Spock-core
is the way to go for now.
Looking at this again, since Web.Spock
and Web.Spock.Core
are nearly identical, I think a nice layout would be to have Web.Spock
reexport everything from Web.Spock.Core
and have module Web.Spock.Core
and module Web.Spock.Action
at the top of Web.Spock
followed by Web.Spock
exports, like this module does.
In an old version of spock on Hackage I can find a Request Handling section that includes information on
param
,params
,jsonBody
, etc. There isn't information for any of these functions in the Hackage documentation for the most recent version of Spock. Spock still exports these functions, why is the documentation missing?
