Pipes-Safe v2.2.3
pipes-safe builds upon
the pipes library to
provide exception safety and resource management.
Quick start
The official tutorial is on
Hackage.
Features
-
Resource Safety: Guarantee finalization using finally, bracket, and more
-
Exception Safety: Even against asynchronous exceptions!
-
Laziness: Only acquire resources when you need them
-
Promptness: Finalize resources early when you are done with them
-
Native Exception Handling: Catch and resume from exceptions inside pipes
-
No Buy-in: Mix resource-safe pipes with unmanaged pipes using hoist
Outline
Use pipes-safe for production code where you need deterministic and prompt
release of resources in the fact of exceptions or premature pipe termination.
pipes-safe lets you safely acquire resources and handle exceptions within
pipelines.
Development Status
pipes-safe is mostly stable. Research into prompter finalization alternatives
will take place in a separate library.
