Hoogle database with hie wrapper #684

Closed ismailmustafa closed 6 years ago

Currently, the instructions for generating a hoogle DB for docs on hover are as follows:

stack --stack-yaml= exec hoogle generate

What is the recommended way of generating a hoogle DB if we installed the ide engine using the make build step? I assume we would need to run the above command for every version of ghc that haskell-ide-engine was compiled with. If so, should we add hoogle DB generation to the Makefile?

Aaaaaaand I just saw that make build-docs exists. Nevermind 🤦
