fillit

Flexible String Substitution library

Features

• Support two kinds of substitutions: required and optional.
• You can change the symbols for substitutions.

Note: This library does not support any sanitization.

Usage

Example:

ghci> :set -XOverloadedStrings
ghci> import Data.Text.Fillit
ghci> import qualified Data.HashMap.Lazy as HM
ghci> let dic = HM.fromList [("name", "Tom"), ("age", "22")]
ghci> fill "$name$ (%age%)" dic
Right "Tom (22)"
ghci> fill "$name$ (%school%)" dic
Right "Tom (%school%)"
ghci> fill "$name$ ($school$)" dic
Left "There is no key in dict, such as school"

By default, the symbol $ means a required substitution. On the other hand, the symbol % means a optional substitution. These symbols can be changed. See fill'.
