So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable.

Summoner is the tool for creating fully configured production Haskell projects.

Getting started

Prerequisites

To start using it make sure you have the next tools installed on your machine:

Installation

The installation process can be done with the one simple command:

$ cabal new-install summoner

or

$ stack install summoner

or directly from GitHub.

You can turn on the bash auto-completion by running the following command:

$ source <(summon --bash-completion-script `which summon`)

After that, you can call summon with the required command. To create a project, use summon new command specifying the prefered CLI options, follow the instructions during the interactive process of the project creation, and a new project would be created in a subfolder as well as a repository under your GitHub account (if requested).

Usage

There are several options how to set particular configurations for the new projects:

  1. Default configuration file (~/.summoner.toml).
  2. Explicitly specified configuration file by --file FILENAME option (used instead of the default one if specified).
  3. Options that are stated by CLI arguments.
  4. Interactively inputed answers during work of the summon command (for the options that were not specified on previous steps).

So, the configuration uses Partial Options Monoid Pattern.

If none of the mentioned above cases used then the configuration will be built interactively.

Configurations

.toml files:

Here is the list of the options that could be configured for your needs:

Global keys
  • cabal โ€“ true if you want to build you project with cabal, false if you don't. If not specified it would be asked during each run of the summoner.
  • stack โ€“ true if you want to build your project with stack, false if you don't. If not specified it would be asked during each run of the summoner.
  • owner โ€“ GitHub login.
  • fullName โ€“ full name.
  • email โ€“ e-mail address.
  • license โ€“ license (possible options: MIT, BSD2, BSD3, GPL-2, GPL-3, LGPL-2.1, LGPL-3, AGPL-3, Apache-2.0, MPL-2.0).
  • ghcVersions โ€“ summoner uses default GHC-8.2.2. But additionally you can specify other versions. For each version x.y.z the stack-x.y.z.yaml will be created.
  • github โ€“ true if you want to turn on GitHub integration by default, false if you don't. If not specified it would be asked during each run of the summoner.
  • travis โ€“ true if you want to turn on Travis integration by default, false if you don't. Ignored if github = false. If not specified it would be asked during each run of the summoner.
  • appveyor โ€“ true if you want to turn on AppVeyor integration by default, false if you don't. Ignored if github = false. If not specified it would be asked during each run of the summoner.
  • private โ€“ true if you want to create private repositories by default, false if you don't. Ignored if github = false. If not specified it would be asked during each run of the summoner.
  • lib โ€“ true if you want to create src folder with dummy Lib.hs file and library target by default, false if you don't. If not specified it would be asked during each run of the summoner.
  • exe โ€“ true if you want to create app folder with dummy Main.hs file and executable target by default, false if you don't. If not specified it would be asked during each run of the summoner.
  • test โ€“ true if you want to create test folder with dummy Spec.hs file and test target by default, false if you don't. If not specified it would be asked during each run of the summoner.
  • bench โ€“ true if you want to create benchmark folder with Main.hs file with gauge library usage example by default, false if you don't. If not specified it would be asked during each run of the summoner.
  • extensions โ€“ List of the default extensions to add into default-extensions section in the .cabal.
  • warnings โ€“ List of the default checks and warnings to add into ghc-options section in the .cabal.
  • stylish.* โ€” stylish.file to provide the absolute file path to the .stylish-haskell.yaml file to use in the project. stylish.url to provide the link to the .stylish-haskell.yaml file to use in the project. In case of the absense or wrong path/link no .stylish-haskell.yaml file is created.
  • contributing.* โ€” contributing.file to provide the absolute file path to the CONTRIBUTING.md file to use in the project. contributing.url to provide the link to the CONTRIBUTING.md file to use in the project. In case of the absense or wrong path/link no CONTRIBUTING file is created.
Custom prelude options

Should be specified inside [prelude] table.

  • package โ€“ Name of the package of the custom prelude you'd like to use in the project (doesn't work without module field).
  • module โ€“ Name of the module of the custom prelude you'd like to use in the project (doesn't work without package field).
Examples

See an example of the configuration for projects of the Kowainik organization.

By default, the summoner looks for the configuration file (.summoner.toml) in home directory.

The other way to specify some particular .toml file is summon new PROJECTNAME --file FILEPATH command.

  license [LICENSE_NAME]   Show specific license text

Available options:
  -h, --help               Show this help text

The options to be enabled/disabled can be specified while running the command. If any of the applicable command options wasn't tagged as enabled/disabled, then the question is asked during the work of the tool.

For example,

  summon new my-project with -letgcpw without -b --prelude-package relude --prelude-module Relude

creates the fully functional project which uses custom prelude relude, contains library, executable file, tests and create private repository on github integrated with Travis-CI, AppVeyor-CI, but benchmarks won't be attached to this one.

But when calling this command

  summon new my-project

the tool asks about every particular option, rather you'd like to have it or not in your project.

Features

If you're running the summoner with all options enabled a project with the following hierarchy is created:

project-name
โ”œโ”€โ”€ app
โ”‚ย ย  โ””โ”€โ”€ Main.hs
โ”œโ”€โ”€ benchmark
โ”‚ย ย  โ””โ”€โ”€ Main.hs
โ”œโ”€โ”€ src
โ”‚   โ”œโ”€โ”€ ProjectName.hs
โ”‚ย ย  โ””โ”€โ”€ Prelude.hs
โ”œโ”€โ”€ test
โ”‚ย ย  โ””โ”€โ”€ Spec.hs
โ”œโ”€โ”€ CHANGELOG.md
โ”œโ”€โ”€ LICENSE
โ”œโ”€โ”€ project-name.cabal
โ”œโ”€โ”€ README.md
โ”œโ”€โ”€ Setup.hs
โ”œโ”€โ”€ stack.yaml
โ”œโ”€โ”€ appveyor.yml
โ”œโ”€โ”€ .git
โ”œโ”€โ”€ .gitignore
โ””โ”€โ”€ .travis.yml

Moreover, a repository with one commit at master is added with enabled Travis CI for that.

GHC options

The -Wall option is added to every stanza.

The following warning checks are added by default to executable, tests and benchmark stanzas:

-threaded
-rtsopts
-with-rtsopts=-N

If warnings are not explicitly stated in the configuration file, then the following ghc-options are added to all stanzas.

-Wincomplete-uni-patterns
-Wincomplete-record-updates
-Wcompat
-Widentities
-Wredundant-constraints      (ghc >= 8.0)
-fhide-source-paths          (ghc >= 8.2.2)
-Wmissing-export-lists       (ghc >= 8.4.1)
-Wpartial-fields             (ghc >= 8.4.1)
