Description

Warning: this is an internal module, and does not have a stable API or name. Functions in this module may not check or enforce preconditions expected by public modules. Use at your own risk!

Efficient construction of lazy `Text` values. The principal operations on a `Builder` are `singleton`, `fromText`, and `fromLazyText`, which construct new builders, and `mappend`, which concatenates two builders.

To get maximum performance when building lazy `Text` values using a builder, associate `mappend` calls to the right. For example, prefer

    singleton 'a' `mappend` (singleton 'b' `mappend` singleton 'c')

to

    singleton 'a' `mappend` singleton 'b' `mappend` singleton 'c'

as the latter associates `mappend` to the left.

# Public API

## The Builder type

data Builder #

A `Builder` is an efficient way to build lazy `Text` values. There are several functions for constructing builders, but only one to inspect them: to extract any data, you have to turn them into lazy `Text` values using `toLazyText`.

Internally, a builder constructs a lazy `Text` by filling arrays piece by piece. As each buffer is filled, it is 'popped' off, to become a new chunk of the resulting lazy `Text`. All this is hidden from the user of the `Builder`.

toLazyText :: Builder -> Text #

O(n). Extract a lazy `Text` from a `Builder` with a default buffer size. The construction work takes place if and when the relevant part of the lazy `Text` is demanded.

toLazyTextWith :: Int -> Builder -> Text #

O(n). Extract a lazy `Text` from a `Builder`, using the given size for the initial buffer. The construction work takes place if and when the relevant part of the lazy `Text` is demanded.

If the initial buffer is too small to hold all data, subsequent buffers will be the default buffer size.

## Constructing Builders

singleton :: Char -> Builder #

O(1). A `Builder` taking a single character, satisfying

-     toLazyText (singleton c) = singleton c

fromText :: Text -> Builder #

O(1). A `Builder` taking a `Text`, satisfying

-     toLazyText (fromText t) = fromChunks [t]

fromLazyText :: Text -> Builder #

O(1). A `Builder` taking a lazy `Text`, satisfying

-     toLazyText (fromLazyText t) = t

fromString :: String -> Builder #

O(1). A Builder taking a `String`, satisfying

-     toLazyText (fromString s) = fromChunks [S.pack s]

## Flushing the buffer state

flush :: Builder #

O(1). Pop the strict `Text` we have constructed so far, if any, yielding a new chunk in the result lazy `Text`.

# Internal functions

append' :: Builder -> Builder -> Builder #

ensureFree :: Int -> Builder #

Ensure that there are at least `n` many elements available.

writeN :: Int -> (forall s. MArray s -> Int -> ST s ()) -> Builder #

Ensure that `n` many elements are available, and then use `f` to write some elements into the memory.
