README

unicode-data-names provides Haskell APIs to efficiently access the Unicode character names and aliases from the Unicode character database.

The Haskell data structures are generated programmatically from the Unicode character database (UCD) files. The latest Unicode version supported by this library is 14.0.0.

Please see the Haddock documentation for reference documentation.

Comparing with Python

In order to check Unicode implementation in Haskell, we compare the results obtained with Python.

Warning: A Python version with the exact same Unicode version is required.

cabal run -f "export-all-chars" -v0 export-all-chars > ./test/all_chars.csv
python3 ./test/check.py -v ./test/all_chars.csv
