[[doom-contrib-maintainer:][Become a maintainer?]]

** Module flags
- +lsp ::
  Enable LSP support for ~haskell-mode~. Requires [[doom-module:][:tools lsp]] and a langserver
  (supports [[https://github.com/haskell/haskell-language-server][haskell-language-server]]).

** Packages
- [[doom-package:][haskell-mode]]
- [[doom-package:][lsp-haskell]] if [[doom-module:][+lsp]]

** Hacks
/No hacks documented for this module./

* Installation
[[id:01cffea4-3329-45e2-a892-95a384ab2338][Enable this module in your ~doom!~ block.]]

It is recommended to install the haskell tooling using [[https://www.haskell.org/ghcup/][ghcup]]. Only ghc is needed
for basic functionality:

#+begin_src sh
ghcup install ghc
#+end_src

but =+lsp= users should also install the language server:

#+begin_src sh
ghcup install hls
#+end_src

Installing [[https://www.haskell.org/cabal/][cabal]] or [[https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/README/][stack]] as well is recommended, and can be done through
=ghcup=.

=haskell-mode= provides support for [[https://github.com/ndmitchell/hoogle][hoogle]], which can be installed through
system package manager, cabal, or stack.

=haskell-language-server= provides support for [[https://github.com/ndmitchell/hlint/][hlint]], and haskell code
formatters such as [[https://github.com/lspitzner/brittany][brittany]], [[https://github.com/ennocramer/floskell][floskell]], [[https://github.com/tweag/ormolu][ormolu]], [[https://github.com/fourmolu/fourmolu][fourmolu]], and [[https://github.com/haskell/stylish-haskell][stylish-haskell]],
which can be installed through system package manager, cabal, or stack.

#+end_quote

This module integrates the haskell packages into Doom by providing things such
as REPL support, project root recognition, etc. It also provide the following
keybindings:

| Keybinding      | Description                                   |
|-----------------+-----------------------------------------------|
| [[kbd:][<localleader> b]] | Build the current cabal project               |
| [[kbd:][<localleader> c]] | Visit the =.cabal= file of the current buffer |
| [[kbd:][<localleader> h]] | Toggle visibility of the form at point        |
| [[kbd:][<localleader> H]] | hides all top level functions                 |

* TODO Configuration
#+begin_quote
 🔨 /This module's configuration documentation is incomplete./ [[doom-contrib-module:][Complete it?]]
#+end_quote

After installing your preferred formatter, make sure to set
=lsp-haskell-formatting-provider= to it.

Make sure to configure the lsp to use your perfered formatter, e.g.:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
;; ~/.doom.d/config.el
(after! lsp-haskell
  (setq lsp-haskell-formatting-provider "brittany"))
#+end_src
