Lifting to Path #224

Open locallycompact opened 4 years ago

locallycompact commented 4 years ago

Hi, I was initially thinking of wrapping the entire prelude and lifting everything that uses FilePath to use Path, but then I realised there isn't actually a huge amount of things that use FilePath, they're just dotted around in lots of places. Is Path definitely out of scope for RIO and if so is there a way we could organise so as to have a sort of drop-in replacement for FilePath related things?

I don't think moving to Path meets the goals of the project. A separate rio-path package makes more sense to me.
