Servant.RawM

servant-rawm provides a way to embed a WAI Application in a Servant handler. It is more convenient and powerful than the Raw type provided by servant.

See the Haddocks on Hackage for servant-rawm for an explanation of how to use the RawM type.

Example

There is code for an example server, client, and documentation located in example/. The following section describes how to run the example executables.

Building

The example executables can be built with the following command:

$ stack build --flag servant-rawm:buildexample

Server

After building, the server can be run with the following command:

$ stack exec -- servant-rawm-example-server

This runs a server on port 8201 serving files in example/files/.

It can be accessed from curl like the following:

$ curl http://localhost:8201/serve-directory/foo.txt
This is an example text file.

Client

After building, the client can be run like the following:

$ stack exec -- servant-rawm-example-client
Successfully got file ./example/files/foo.txt:

This is an example text file.

Documentation

After building, the documentation can be generated like the following. This is documentation for the API defined in example/Api.hs:

$ stack exec -- servant-rawm-example-docs
