data CSSFramework Source #

Render functions to render with Bootstrap, Tailwind CSS etc. We call this functions with the cssFramework passed to have late binding (like from OOP languages). Here's an explanation breaking it down, step by step

renderedHtml = styledPagination theCSSFramework theCSSFramework paginationView

Can also be written using get:

renderedHtml = (theCSSFramework.styledPagination) theCSSFramework paginationView

That's important to understand here. We get a $sel:styledPagination:CSSFramework function using 'theCSSFramework.styledPagination'. Next, we apply theCSSFramework to that function. We do that so because the $sel:styledPagination:CSSFramework function internally might want to call other functions of the CSSFramework type. But we might want to override some functions of the CSSFramework.

Here's an example of how it would look if we don't pass this a second time, and it's shortcomings. Let's assume $sel:styledPagination:CSSFramework is calling a styledButton:

data CSSFramework = CSSFramework { styledPagination :: Html, styledButton :: Html }

bootstrapCSS = CSSFramework { styledPagination, styledButton }
   where
       styledPagination = [hsx|<div>{styledButton}</div>|]
       styledButton = [hsx|<button style="color: red">button</button>|]]

myPage = [hsx|{styledPagination bootstrapCSS}|]

So far all seems fine. But now let's say we would like to override the button styling, and change the button to green instead of red:

customCSS = bootstrapCSS { styledButton = [hsx|<button style="color: green">button</button>|]]  }

myPage = [hsx|{styledPagination customCSS}|]

Now, when we render the myPage we will get 'divstyle="color: red"button/button/div' (a red button, while our customCSS specified it should be green).

Our way to fix this is to "late-bind" the calls, by manually passing around a CSSFramework. Here we added that second CSSFramework to all functions. Notice how $sel:styledPagination:CSSFramework is getting the correct styledButton by calling 'cssFramework.styledButton':

data CSSFramework = CSSFramework { styledPagination :: CSSFramework -> Html, styledButton :: CSSFramework -> Html }

bootstrapCSS = CSSFramework { styledPagination, styledButton }
   where
       styledPagination cssFramework = [hsx|<div>{cssFramework.styledButton}</div>|]
       styledButton cssFramework = [hsx|<button style="color: red">button</button>|]]

myPage = [hsx|{styledPagination bootstrapCSS bootstrapCSS}|]

Now, with this second CSSFramework in place we can customize it again:

customCSS = bootstrapCSS { styledButton = \cssFramework -> [hsx|<button style="color: green">button</button>|]]  }

myPage = [hsx|{styledPagination customCSS customCSS}|]

Default CSSFramework Source #

Provides an unstyled CSSFramework

This way we can later add more properties to the CSSFramework without having to update all the CSS Frameworks manually

type HtmlWithContext context = (?context :: context) => Html Source #

type Layout = Html -> Html Source #

A layout is just a function taking a view and returning a new view.

Example: A very basic html layout.

myLayout :: Layout
myLayout view = [hsx|
    <html>
        <body>
            {view}
        </body>
    </html>
|]
