hie-bios
- hie-bios
hie-bios
is the way to specify how
haskell-language-server
and ghcide
set up a GHC API session.
Given a Haskell project that is managed by Stack, Cabal, or other package tools,
haskell-language-server
needs to know the full set of flags to pass to GHC in
order to build the project. These flags might contain some compilation options
like -O2
, but a lot of the time they are package dependencies such as
-package-id directory-1.3.6.0
, which also need to be built beforehand.
hie-bios
satisfies both these needs.
Its design is motivated by the guiding principle:
It is the responsibility of the build tool to describe the environment which a package should be built in.
Using this principle, it is possible
to easily support a wide range of tools including cabal-install
, stack
,
rules_haskell
, hadrian
and obelisk
without major contortions.
hie-bios
does not depend on the Cabal
library nor does it
read any complicated build products and so on.
How does a tool specify a session? A session is fully specified by a set of
standard GHC flags. Most tools already produce this information if they support
a repl
command. Launching a repl is achieved by calling ghci
with the
right flags to specify the package database. hie-bios
needs a way to get
these flags and then it can set up a GHC API session correctly.
Further it means that any failure to set up the API session is the responsibility of the build tool. It is up to them to provide the correct information if they want the tool to work correctly.
Explicit Configuration
The user can place a hie.yaml
file in the root of the workspace which
describes how to set up the environment. There are several supported ways to setup the environment.
Stack
To explicitly state that you want to use stack
, the basic configuration hie.yaml
would look like:
cradle:
stack:
This configuration suffices if your whole project can be loaded by the command stack repl
. As a rule of thumb, this works if the project consists of only one executable, one library and one test-suite.
Some projects have multiple stack-*.yaml
files for multiple versions of ghc/resolvers. In this case you
can specify an alternate relative file to use by using the stackYaml
option. The path is relative to the
configuration file.
cradle:
stack:
stackYaml: "./stack-8.8.3.yaml"
If your project is more complicated, you need to specify which components you want to load. A component is, roughly speaking, a library/executable/test-suite or benchmark in stack
. You can view the components/targets of a stack project by executing the command:
$ stack ide targets
Since we have two test-suites, one executable and a library, for hie-bios
, this would output the following:
$ stack ide targets
hie-bios:lib
hie-bios:exe:hie-bios
hie-bios:test:bios-tests
hie-bios:test:parser-tests
For an explanation of the target syntax, we refer to the documentation of the target syntax.
To tell hie-bios
which component it should load, the following hie.yaml
can be used:
cradle:
stack:
component: "<component name>"
where <component name>
is the name of the component/target you want to load.
While the component is optional, this is recommended to make sure the correct component is loaded.
Why is this not enough? Usually, you have multiple components with different dependencies. Your library won’t depend on tasty
or hspec
, but your test-suite might. With this setup, you would only be able to load files from the given component.
Since you rarely only want to load a single component in a stack
project, we have special syntax to be able to conveniently specify which directory belongs to which component. It is basically a multi-cradle.
cradle:
stack:
- path: "./src"
component: "hie-bios:lib"
- path: "./exe"
component: "hie-bios:exe:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/BiosTests.hs"
component: "hie-bios:test:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/ParserTests.hs"
component: "hie-bios:test:parser-tests"
Here you can see two important features:
- We provide a mapping from a filepath to component.
- That way, we specify that a file such as
./src/HIE/Bios.hs
belongs to the componenthie-bios:lib
.
- That way, we specify that a file such as
- The filepath can be a file.
- This is convenient if components are overlapping.
This way we specified which component needs to be compiled given a source file for our whole project.
If you use both, multiple components and an alternate stack.yaml
file, there is a way to specify defaults
for the path-specific configurations.
cradle:
stack:
stackYaml: "stack-8.3.3.yaml"
components:
- path: "./src"
component: "hie-bios:lib"
- path: "./exe"
component: "hie-bios:exe:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/BiosTests.hs"
component: "hie-bios:test:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/ParserTests.hs"
component: "hie-bios:test:parser-tests"
A word of warning: Due to current restrictions in the language server, as mentioned in this bug report all referenced stack.yaml files must specify the same version of GHC, as only one version of ghcide is loaded at a time per workspace root. This restriction might be lifted in the future.
Debugging a stack
cradle
If you find that hie-bios
can’t load a certain component or file, run stack repl
and stack repl <component name>
to see if stack
succeeds in building your project. Chances are that there is a problem in your project and if you fix that, hie-bios
will succeed to load it.
Also, see notes for testing your configuration.
Otherwise, please open an issue.
Ignoring directories
You can combine the multi-cradle with a none-cradle to ignore all source files in a certain directory. The syntax is a bit verbose:
cradle:
multi:
- path: "./tests/projects"
config:
cradle:
none:
- path: "./"
config:
cradle:
stack:
- path: "./src"
component: "hie-bios:lib"
- path: "./exe"
component: "hie-bios:exe:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/BiosTests.hs"
component: "hie-bios:test:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/ParserTests.hs"
component: "hie-bios:test:parser-tests"
This way, we specify that we do not want to load any files in our test project directories.
Internal Libraries
Internal libraries are not well supported in stack
. Since the syntax stack repl <internal library name>
doesn’t work, hie-bios
will generally not work with internal libraries using stack
.
Cabal
To use cabal
, the basic explicit configuration looks similar to stack
’s configuration.
cradle:
cabal:
The implication of this configuration is a bit different, though. Given a source file to load, we will use cabal repl <filename>
to find the component of the given filepath.
This configuration should work in (almost) every standard project setup, since cabal
finds the component associated to a given source file.
However, due to an unfortunate bug, this fails on some files with cabal
versions older than 3.4
.
So, to make your project loadable by older cabal
versions, you can specify a component to load.
A component is roughly speaking a library, executable, test-suite or benchmark in cabal
.
The hie.yaml
file looks like this:
cradle:
cabal:
component: <component name>
This tells hie-bios
that whichever source file it tries to load, this source file should be handled as if it belongs to <component name>
.
As an example, to load the library of hie-bios
, the following hie.yaml
can be used:
cradle:
cabal:
component: "lib:hie-bios"
The component syntax "lib:hie-bios"
refers to the library of the package hie-bios
. For a complete reference of the component syntax, we refer to the documentation.
Note that cabal
and stack
have different ways of specifying their
components.
If we only specify a single component, then we can only load source files from this component. This is unsatisfactory as we want to be able to navigate our project freely and work on multiple components (test-suite, library, executable, etc…) in parallel.
In a project such as hie-bios
, we have more than one component, in particular we have four:
- An executable
- A library
- Two test-suites
The component syntax can easily be extracted from the hie-bios.cabal
file. Relevant sections are:
...
Name: hie-bios
...
Library
...
HS-Source-Dirs: src
Executable hie-bios
...
Main-Is: Main.hs
HS-Source-Dirs: exe
test-suite parser-tests
...
hs-source-dirs: tests/
main-is: ParserTests.hs
test-suite bios-tests
...
hs-source-dirs: tests/
main-is: BiosTests.hs
Using the documentation of cabal, we extract the four component names of the hie-bios
project:
lib:hie-bios
exe:hie-bios
test:bios-tests
test:parser-tests
Since you rarely only want to load a single component in a cabal
project, we have special syntax to be able to conveniently specify which directory belongs to which component. It is basically a multi-cradle.
cradle:
cabal:
- path: "./src"
component: "lib:hie-bios"
- path: "./exe"
component: "exe:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/BiosTests.hs"
component: "test:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/ParserTests.hs"
component: "test:parser-tests"
Here you can see two important features:
- We provide a mapping from filepath to component.
- That way, we specify that a file such as
./src/HIE/Bios.hs
belongs to the componentlib:hie-bios
.
- That way, we specify that a file such as
- The filepath can be a file.
- This is convenient if components are overlapping.
Similarly to multi-stack
configurations, you can also specify multiple components using a components
subkey.
cradle:
cabal:
components:
- path: "./src"
component: "lib:hie-bios"
- path: "./exe"
component: "exe:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/BiosTests.hs"
component: "test:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/ParserTests.hs"
component: "test:parser-tests"
This way we specified which component needs to be compiled given a certain source file for our whole project.
Some projects have multiple cabal.project
files for multiple versions of ghc or development options. In this case you
can specify an alternate relative file to use by using the cabalProject
option. The path is relative to the
hie.yaml
.
cradle:
cabal:
cabalProject: "./cabal.project.dev"
We can combine the cabalProject
field with components
:
cradle:
cabal:
cabalProject: "./cabal.project.dev"
components:
- path: "./src"
component: "lib:hie-bios"
- path: "./exe"
component: "exe:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/BiosTests.hs"
component: "test:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/ParserTests.hs"
component: "test:parser-tests"
Debugging a cabal
cradle
If you find that hie-bios
can’t load a certain component or file, you may run cabal repl <filename>
and cabal repl <component name>
to see if cabal
succeeds in building the components. Chances are that there is a problem and if you fix that, hie-bios
will succeed to load the project.
Also, see notes for testing your configuration.
Otherwise, please open an issue.
Ignoring directories
You can combine the multi-cradle with a none-cradle to ignore all source files in a certain directory. The syntax is a bit verbose:
cradle:
multi:
- path: "./tests/projects"
config:
cradle:
none:
- path: "./"
config:
cradle:
cabal:
- path: "./src"
component: "lib:hie-bios"
- path: "./exe"
component: "exe:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/BiosTests.hs"
component: "test:hie-bios"
- path: "./tests/ParserTests.hs"
component: "test:parser-tests"
This way, we specify that we do not want to load any files in our test project directories.
Bios
Alternatively you can explicitly state a program
or shell command which should
be used to collect the options. This is the most general approach and can be extended to handle arbitrary build systems.
The path of the program
attribute is interpreted relative to the current
working directory if it isn’t absolute. A program is passed the file to
return options for as its first argument, and a shell command will have it
available in the HIE_BIOS_ARG
environment variable.
There are two important environment variables:
HIE_BIOS_OUTPUT
: describes the filepath the options should be written to. If this file does not exist, theprogram
should create it.HIE_BIOS_ARG
: the source file that we want to load. Options returned by theprogram
should be able to compile the given source file.- This environment variable is only available if a shell program is given.
The program flow is roughly as follows:
The process must consult the HIE_BIOS_OUTPUT
environment variable and write a
list of options to this file, separated by newlines. Once the process finishes
running, hie-bios
reads this file and uses the arguments to set up the GHC
session. This is how GHC’s build system is able to support hie-bios
.
Note, the program
is intended to produce the build flags to compile the whole component the given source file belongs to. This entails that the program
lists all of the component’s module- and file targets.
A good guiding specification for this file is that the following commands should work for any file in your project.
$ export HIE_BIOS_OUTPUT=./options.txt # this is usually some temporary file
$ ./<program> /path/to/foo.hs
$ ghci $(cat $HIE_BIOS_OUTPUT | tr '\n' ' ')
where HIE_BIOS_OUTPUT
is some chosen output file and HIE_BIOS_ARG
contains the file parameter.
The hie.yaml
configuration looks like this:
cradle:
bios:
program: "<program>"
Alternatively, you may specify shell code directly.
This is helpful, if your program
executable consists of only a single call to another executable.
cradle:
bios:
shell: "<build-tool flags $HIE_BIOS_ARG>"
Additionally, you may specify the path to ghc. Otherwise, the one in the PATH will be used:
cradle:
bios:
program: "<program>"
with-ghc: "<ghc>"
Debugging a bios
cradle
The most common error in creating bios
cradle is to not list all targets of the component. Please make sure, that you always list all targets of the component, associated with the filepath you want to load.
Also, see notes for testing your configuration.
Direct
The direct
cradle allows you to specify exactly the GHC options that should be used to load
a project. This is good for debugging but not a very good approach in general as the set of options
will quickly get out of sync with a cabal file.
cradle:
direct:
arguments: [arg1, arg2]
Debugging a direct
cradle
The arguments of a direct
cradle will be passed almost directly to ghc
. If the command ghc <cradle arguments>
succeeds, then hie-bios
can load the project.
None
The none
cradle says that the IDE shouldn’t even try to load the project. It
is most useful when combined with the multi-cradle which is specified in the next section.
cradle:
none:
Multi-Cradle
For a multi-component project you can use the multi-cradle to specify how each subdirectory of the project should be handled by the IDE.
The multi-cradle is a list of relative paths and cradle configurations.
The path is relative to the configuration file and specifies the scope of
the cradle. For example, this configuration specifies that files in the
src
subdirectory should be handled with the lib:hie-bios
component and
files in the test
directory using the test:bios-tests
component.
cradle:
multi:
- path: "./src"
config:
cradle:
cabal:
component: "lib:hie-bios"
- path: "./test"
config:
cradle:
cabal:
component: "test:bios-tests"
If a file matches multiple prefixes, the most specific one is chosen.
Once a prefix is matched, the selected cradle is used to find the options. This
is usually a specific cradle such as cabal
or stack
but it could be another
multi-cradle, in which case, matching works in exactly the same way until a
specific cradle is chosen.
This cradle type is experimental and may not be supported correctly by
some libraries which use hie-bios
. It requires some additional care to
correctly manage multiple components.
Note: Remember you can use the multi-cradle to declare that certain directories
shouldn’t be loaded by an IDE, in conjunction with the none
cradle.
cradle:
multi:
- path: "./src"
config: { cradle: {cabal: {component: "lib:hie-bios"}} }
- path: "./test"
config: { cradle: {cabal: {component: "test:bios-tests"}} }
- path: "./test/test-files"
config: { cradle: { none: } }
For cabal and stack projects there is a shorthand to specify how to load each component.
cradle:
cabal:
- path: "./src"
component: "lib:hie-bios"
- path: "./test"
component: "test:bios-tests"
cradle:
stack:
- path: "./src"
component: "hie-bios:lib"
- path: "./test"
component: "hie-bios:test:bios-tests"
Remember you can combine this shorthand with more complicated configurations as well.
cradle:
multi:
- path: "./test/testdata"
config: { cradle: { none: } }
- path: "./"
config: { cradle: { cabal:
[ { path: "./src", component: "lib:hie-bios" }
, { path: "./tests", component: "parser-tests" } ] } }
Cradle Dependencies
Sometimes it is necessary to reload a component, for example when a package dependency is added to the project. Each type of cradle defines a list of files that might cause an existing cradle to no longer provide accurate diagnostics if changed. These are expected to be relative to the root of the cradle.
This makes it possible to watch for changes to these files and reload the
cradle appropiately.
However, if there are files that are not covered by
the cradle dependency resolution, you can add these files explicitly to
hie.yaml
.
The file dependencies are not required to actually exist, since it can be useful
to know when they are created, e.g. if there was no cabal.project
in the project before and now there is, it might change how a file in the
project is compiled.
Here’s an example of how you would add cradle dependencies that may not be covered
by the cabal
cradle.
cradle:
cabal:
component: "lib:hie-bios"
dependencies:
- package.yaml
- shell.nix
- default.nix
For the Bios
cradle type, the newline-separated cradle dependencies must be written out
to the file specified by the HIE_BIOS_DEPS
environment variable.
Previous versions implemented a different mechanism for collecting cradle dependencies by means of a second program/shell field. This is still supported for backwards compatibility:
cradle:
bios:
dependency-program: ./dependency.sh
cradle:
bios:
dependency-shell: build-tool dependencies $HIE_BIOS_ARG > $HIE_BIOS_OUTPUT
Configuration specification
The complete configuration is a subset of
cradle:
cabal:
component: "optional component name"
stack:
component: "optional component name"
bios:
program: "program to run"
dependency-program: "optional program to run"
shell: build-tool flags $HIE_BIOS_ARG
dependency-shell: build-tool dependencies $HIE_BIOS_ARG
with-ghc: "optional path to ghc"
direct:
arguments: ["list","of","ghc","arguments"]
none:
multi: - path: ./
config: { cradle: ... }
dependencies:
- someDep
Testing your configuration
The given hie-bios
executable is provided to test your configuration.
The flags
command will print out the options that hie-bios
thinks you will need to load a file.
$ hie-bios flags exe/Main.hs
The check
command will try to use these flags to load the module into the GHC API.
$ hie-bios check exe/Main.hs
The debug
command prints verbose information about the cradle, such as where the hie.yaml
file was found, which file is loaded and the options that will eventually be used for loading a session.
$ hie-bios debug exe/Main.hs
Implicit Configuration
There are several built in modes which capture the most common Haskell development
scenarios. If no hie.yaml
configuration file is found then an implicit
configuration is searched for. It is strongly recommended to just explicitly
configure your project.
Priority
The targets are searched for in the following order.
- A specific
.hie-bios
file. - A
stack
project - A
cabal
project - The direct cradle which has no specific options.
cabal-install
The workspace root is the first folder containing a cabal.project
file.
The arguments are collected by running cabal v2-repl <filename>
.
If cabal v2-repl <filename>
fails, then the user needs to configure the correct
target to use by writing a hie.yaml
file.
stack
The workspace root is the first folder containing a stack.yaml
file.
The arguments are collected by executing stack repl
. If this fails, the user needs to configure the correct target to use by writing a hie.yaml
file.
bios
The most general form is the bios
mode which allows users to specify
which flags to provide themselves.
The program will receive the file to return options for as its first argument.
The program flow is roughly as follows:
The process must consult the HIE_BIOS_OUTPUT
environment variable and write a
list of options to the file pointed to by HIE_BIOS_OUTPUT
, separated by newlines. Once the process finishes running, hie-bios
reads this file and uses the arguments to set up the GHC
session. This is how GHC’s build system is able to support hie-bios
.
Note, the program
is intended to produce the build flags to compile the whole component the given source file belongs to. This entails that the program
lists all of the component’s module- and file targets.
A good guiding specification for this file is that the following commands should work for any file in your project.
$ export HIE_BIOS_OUTPUT=./options.txt # this is usually some temporary file
$ ./.hie-bios /path/to/foo.hs
$ ghci $(cat $HIE_BIOS_OUTPUT | tr '\n' ' ')
This is useful if you are designing a new build system or the other modes
fail to setup the correct session for some reason. For example, this is
how hadrian (GHC’s build system) is integrated into hie-bios
.
Supporting Bazel and Obelisk
In previous versions of hie-bios
there was also support for projects using rules_haskell
and obelisk
.
This was removed in the 0.3 release as they were unused and broken. There is no conceptual barrier to adding back support but it requires a user of these two approaches to maintain them.
