This library lets you automatically derive Haskell functions that let you query each endpoint of a *servant* webservice.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
``` haskell
|
|
type MyApi = "books" :> Get '[JSON] [Book] -- GET /books
|
|
:<|> "books" :> ReqBody Book :> Post '[JSON] Book -- POST /books
|
|
|
|
myApi :: Proxy MyApi
|
|
myApi = Proxy
|
|
|
|
getAllBooks :: ExceptT String IO [Book]
|
|
postNewBook :: Book -> ExceptT String IO Book
|
|
-- 'client' allows you to produce operations to query an API from a client.
|
|
(getAllBooks :<|> postNewBook) = client myApi host
|
|
where host = BaseUrl Http "localhost" 8080
|
|
```
