Description

Declaration of the `ReaderT` monad transformer, which adds a static environment to a given monad.

If the computation is to modify the stored information, use Control.Monad.Trans.State instead.

# The Reader monad

type Reader r = ReaderT r Identity #

The parameterizable reader monad.

Computations are functions of a shared environment.

The `return` function ignores the environment, while `>>=` passes the inherited environment to both subcomputations.

reader :: Monad m => (r -> a) -> ReaderT r m a #

Constructor for computations in the reader monad (equivalent to `asks`).

runReader #

Arguments

:: Reader r a | A `Reader` to run.
-> r | An initial environment.
-> a |

Runs a `Reader` and extracts the final value from it. (The inverse of `reader`.)

mapReader :: (a -> b) -> Reader r a -> Reader r b #

Transform the value returned by a `Reader`.

-     runReader (mapReader f m) = f . runReader m

withReader #

Arguments

:: (r' -> r) | The function to modify the environment.
-> Reader r a | Computation to run in the modified environment.
-> Reader r' a |

Execute a computation in a modified environment (a specialization of `withReaderT`).

-     runReader (withReader f m) = runReader m . f

# The ReaderT monad transformer

newtype ReaderT r m a #

The reader monad transformer, which adds a read-only environment to the given monad.

The `return` function ignores the environment, while `>>=` passes the inherited environment to both subcomputations.

Arguments

:: (r' -> r) | The function to modify the environment.
-> ReaderT r m a | Computation to run in the modified environment.

local #

Arguments

:: (r -> r) | The function to modify the environment.
-> ReaderT r m a | Computation to run in the modified environment.
-> ReaderT r m a |

asks #

Arguments

-     asks f = liftM f ask

# Lifting other operations
