Template:Haskell lib
From Wikibooks, the open-content textbooks collection
[edit] What does this template do?
This template generates links to the documentation of library modules. For example, if you talk about Control.Monad and want the text to be a proper link to the latest haddocks, this template is for you.
The links point to the library documentation on Hackage. You have to specify the exact version of a package. The default is package=base|version=3.0.0.0. Short forms are allowed, i.e. p=base|v=3.0.0.0. Exception: in the special case of the Prelude, it will link to the language standard.
Arguably, automatic syntax coloring and hyperlinking of Haskell source code should obsolete this template.
[edit] Usage
| source | result |
| {{Haskell lib|Control|Monad}} | Control.Monad from the base-package. |
| {{Haskell lib|p=mtl|v=1.1.0.0|Control|Monad|State}} | Control.Monad.State from the version 1.0.0.0 of the mtl-package. |
| {{Haskell lib|Prelude}} | Prelude from the language standard. |
Currently, the module name may be only 5 levels deep, but that's easy to change.
