Haskelly

Release notes | Roadmap | Demo Video

Haskelly is a Visual Studio Code extension that supports Haskell development.

Features

• Code highlight

  • Haskell (.hs and .lhs) and Cabal via automatic dependency on Haskell Syntax Highlighting.

• Code snippets

  • Structures : data, newtype, etc.
  • Popular functions : map, fold, etc.

• Type hovers

  • 

• Jump to definition

  • Jump to symbol definitions/declarations

• Find references

  • Find references within a module or depending modules. See limitations on #62

• Code completion :

  • Local functions and constants
  • Standard library
  • Imported modules

  

• Integrated REPL, Build, Test and Run commands

  • repl with GHCi
  • build with stack
  • run with runHaskell
  • test current file prop_* properties with QuickCheck
  • run full test suite with Stack test

Installation

• Install the Haskelly VS Code extension.

• Install Stack and add it to your PATH. Note that Stack folder naming conventions must be followed for it to work correctly, i.e. capitalizing folder names.

  curl -sSL https://get.haskellstack.org/ | sh

• Install Intero (code completion and type information), and QuickCheck (test suite)

  stack install intero QuickCheck  # for a global installation
  stack build intero QuickCheck # for a local installation
