Is it somehow possible to do reify in GHCi?
When I try it using 'runQ' it complains "can not do reify in the IO monad".
>>> runQ (reify ''Bool)
Template Haskell error: Can't do `reify' in the IO monad
*** Exception: user error (Template Haskell failure)
I'm not looking for :t
or something, only for a way to quickly check what reify
returns without writing it to a file and loading that file into GHCi.
You just have to run it from a splice instead of using runQ
:
> $(stringE . show =<< reify ''Bool)
"TyConI (DataD [] GHC.Types.Bool [] [NormalC GHC.Types.False [],NormalC GHC.Types.True []] [])"
