Doc overview

The abstract data type Doc<A> represents prettified documents that have been annotated with data of type A.

More specifically, a value of type Doc represents a non-empty set of possible layouts for a given document. The layout algorithms select one of these possibilities, taking into account variables such as the width of the document.

The annotation is an arbitrary piece of data associated with (part of) a document. Annotations may be used by rendering algorithms to display documents differently by providing information such as:

  • color information (e.g., when rendering to the terminal)
  • mouseover text (e.g., when rendering to rich HTML)
  • whether to show something or not (to allow simple or detailed versions)

Table of contents


alignment

align

The align combinator lays out a document with the nesting level set to the current column.

Signature

export declare const align: <A>(self: Doc<A>) => Doc<A>

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import * as String from "effect/String"

// As an example, the documents below will be placed one above the other
// regardless of the current nesting level

// Without `align`ment, the second line is simply placed below everything
// that has been laid out so far
const unaligned = Doc.hsep([Doc.text("lorem"), Doc.vsep([Doc.text("ipsum"), Doc.text("dolor")])])

assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(unaligned, { style: "pretty" }),
  String.stripMargin(
    `|lorem ipsum
     |dolor`
  )
)

// With `align`ment, the `vsep`ed documents all start at the same column
const aligned = Doc.hsep([Doc.text("lorem"), Doc.align(Doc.vsep([Doc.text("ipsum"), Doc.text("dolor")]))])

assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(aligned, { style: "pretty" }),
  String.stripMargin(
    `|lorem ipsum
     |      dolor`
  )
)

Added in v1.0.0

encloseSep

The encloseSep combinator concatenates a collection of documents, separating each document in the collection using the specified sep document. After concatenation, the resulting document is enclosed by the specified left and right documents.

To place the sep document at the end of each entry, see the punctuate combinator.

Signature

export declare const encloseSep: {
  <A, B, C>(left: Doc<A>, right: Doc<B>, sep: Doc<C>): <D>(docs: Iterable<Doc<D>>) => Doc<A | B | C | D>
  <A, B, C, D>(docs: Iterable<Doc<D>>, left: Doc<A>, right: Doc<B>, sep: Doc<C>): Doc<A | B | C | D>
}

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import { pipe } from "effect/Function"
import * as String from "effect/String"

const doc = Doc.hsep([
  Doc.text("list"),
  Doc.align(
    pipe(
      ["1", "20", "300", "4000"].map((n) => (n.length === 1 ? Doc.char(n) : Doc.text(n))),
      Doc.encloseSep(Doc.lbracket, Doc.rbracket, Doc.comma)
    )
  )
])

// The documents are laid out horizontally if the document fits the page
assert.strictEqual(Doc.render(doc, { style: "pretty" }), "list [1,20,300,4000]")

// Otherwise they are laid out vertically, with separators put in the front
assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(doc, {
    style: "pretty",
    options: { lineWidth: 10 }
  }),
  String.stripMargin(
    `|list [1
     |     ,20
     |     ,300
     |     ,4000]`
  )
)

Added in v1.0.0

hang

The hang combinator lays out a document with the nesting level set to the current column plus the specified indent. Negative values for indent are allowed and decrease the nesting level accordingly.

This differs from the nest combinator, which is based on the current nesting level plus the specified indent. When you”re not sure, try the more efficient combinator (nest) first.

Signature

export declare const hang: { (indent: number): <A>(self: Doc<A>) => Doc<A>; <A>(self: Doc<A>, indent: number): Doc<A> }

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import { pipe } from "effect/Function"
import * as String from "effect/String"

const doc = Doc.hsep([Doc.text("prefix"), pipe(Doc.reflow("Indenting these words with hang"), Doc.hang(4))])

assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(doc, {
    style: "pretty",
    options: { lineWidth: 24 }
  }),
  String.stripMargin(
    `|prefix Indenting these
     |           words with
     |           hang`
  )
)

Added in v1.0.0

indent

The indent combinator indents a document by the specified indent beginning from the current cursor position.

Signature

export declare const indent: {
  (indent: number): <A>(self: Doc<A>) => Doc<A>
  <A>(self: Doc<A>, indent: number): Doc<A>
}

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import { pipe } from "effect/Function"
import * as String from "effect/String"

const doc = Doc.hcat([Doc.text("prefix"), pipe(Doc.reflow("The indent function indents these words!"), Doc.indent(4))])

assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(doc, {
    style: "pretty",
    options: { lineWidth: 24 }
  }),
  String.stripMargin(
    `|prefix    The indent
     |          function
     |          indents these
     |          words!`
  )
)

Added in v1.0.0

list

A Haskell-inspired variant of encloseSep that uses a comma as the separator and braces as the enclosure for a collection of documents.

Signature

export declare const list: <A>(docs: Iterable<Doc<A>>) => Doc<A>

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"

const doc = Doc.list(["1", "20", "300", "4000"].map((n) => (n.length === 1 ? Doc.char(n) : Doc.text(n))))

assert.strictEqual(Doc.render(doc, { style: "pretty" }), "[1, 20, 300, 4000]")

Added in v1.0.0

nest

Lays out a document with the current nesting level (indentation of the following lines) increased by the specified indent. Negative values are allowed and will decrease the nesting level accordingly.

See also:

  • hang: nest a document relative to the current cursor position instead of the current nesting level
  • align: set the nesting level to the current cursor position
  • indent: increase the indentation on the spot, padding any empty space with spaces

Signature

export declare const nest: { (indent: number): <A>(self: Doc<A>) => Doc<A>; <A>(self: Doc<A>, indent: number): Doc<A> }

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import { pipe } from "effect/Function"
import * as String from "effect/String"

const doc = Doc.vsep([pipe(Doc.vsep(Doc.words("lorem ipsum dolor")), Doc.nest(4)), Doc.text("sit"), Doc.text("amet")])

assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(doc, { style: "pretty" }),
  String.stripMargin(
    `|lorem
     |    ipsum
     |    dolor
     |sit
     |amet`
  )
)

Added in v1.0.0

tupled

A Haskell-inspired variant of encloseSep that uses a comma as the separator and parentheses as the enclosure for a collection of documents.

Signature

export declare const tupled: <A>(docs: Iterable<Doc<A>>) => Doc<A>

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"

const doc = Doc.tupled(["1", "20", "300", "4000"].map((n) => (n.length === 1 ? Doc.char(n) : Doc.text(n))))

assert.strictEqual(Doc.render(doc, { style: "pretty" }), "(1, 20, 300, 4000)")

Added in v1.0.0

alternative layouts

flatAlt

The flatAlt document will render left by default. However, when grouped, y will be preferred with left as the fallback for cases where y does not fit onto the page.

NOTE: Users should be careful to ensure that left is less wide than right. Otherwise, if right ends up not fitting the page, then the layout algorithms will fall back to an even wider layout.

Signature

export declare const flatAlt: {
  <B>(that: Doc<B>): <A>(self: Doc<A>) => Doc<B | A>
  <A, B>(self: Doc<A>, that: Doc<B>): Doc<A | B>
}

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import { pipe } from "effect/Function"
import * as String from "effect/String"

const open = pipe(Doc.empty, Doc.flatAlt(Doc.text("{ ")))
const close = pipe(Doc.empty, Doc.flatAlt(Doc.text(" }")))
const separator = pipe(Doc.empty, Doc.flatAlt(Doc.text("; ")))

const prettyDo = <A>(documents: Array<Doc.Doc<A>>): Doc.Doc<A> => {
  return pipe(Doc.hsep([Doc.text("do"), pipe(documents, Doc.encloseSep(open, close, separator), Doc.align)]), Doc.group)
}

const statements = [
  Doc.text("name:_ <- getArgs"),
  Doc.text('let greet = "Hello, " <> name'),
  Doc.text("putStrLn greet")
]

// If it fits, then the content is put onto a single line with the `{;}` style
assert.strictEqual(
  pipe(
    prettyDo(statements),
    Doc.render({
      style: "pretty",
      options: { lineWidth: 80 }
    })
  ),
  'do { name:_ <- getArgs; let greet = "Hello, " <> name; putStrLn greet }'
)

// When there is not enough space, the content is broken up onto multiple lines
assert.strictEqual(
  pipe(
    prettyDo(statements),
    Doc.render({
      style: "pretty",
      options: { lineWidth: 10 }
    })
  ),
  String.stripMargin(
    `|do name:_ <- getArgs
     |   let greet = "Hello, " <> name
     |   putStrLn greet`
  )
)

Added in v1.0.0

group

The group combinator attempts to lay out a document onto a single line by removing the contained line breaks. If the result does not fit the page, or if a hardLine prevents flattening the document, x is laid out without any changes.

The group function is key to layouts that adapt to available space nicely.

Signature

export declare const group: <A>(self: Doc<A>) => Doc<A>

Added in v1.0.0

union

Signature

export declare const union: {
  <B>(that: Doc<B>): <A>(self: Doc<A>) => Doc<B | A>
  <A, B>(self: Doc<A>, that: Doc<B>): Doc<A | B>
}

Added in v1.0.0

annotations

alterAnnotations

Change the annotations of a document. Individual annotations can be removed, changed, or replaced by multiple ones.

This is a general function that combines unAnnotate and reAnnotate, and is useful for mapping semantic annotations (such as »this is a keyword«) to display annotations (such as »this is red and underlined«) because some backends may not care about certain annotations while others may.

Annotations earlier in the new list will be applied earlier, so returning [Bold, Green] will result in a bold document that contains green text, and not vice versa.

Since this traverses the entire document tree, including the parts that are not rendered (due to other layouts having better fit), it is preferable to reannotate a document after producing the layout by using alterAnnotations from the SimpleDocStream module.

Signature

export declare const alterAnnotations: {
  <A, B>(f: (a: A) => Iterable<B>): (self: Doc<A>) => Doc<B>
  <A, B>(self: Doc<A>, f: (a: A) => Iterable<B>): Doc<B>
}

Added in v1.0.0

annotate

Adds an annotation to a Doc. The annotation can then be used by the rendering algorithm to, for example, add color to certain parts of the output.

Note This function is relevant only for custom formats with their own annotations, and is not relevant for basic pretty printing.

Signature

export declare const annotate: {
  <A>(annotation: A): (self: Doc<A>) => Doc<A>
  <A>(self: Doc<A>, annotation: A): Doc<A>
}

Added in v1.0.0

reAnnotate

Changes the annotation of a document. Useful for modifying documents embedded with one form of annotation with a more general annotation.

Note that with each invocation, the entire document tree is traversed. If possible, it is preferable to reannotate a document after producing the layout using reAnnotateS.

Signature

export declare const reAnnotate: {
  <A, B>(f: (a: A) => B): (self: Doc<A>) => Doc<B>
  <A, B>(self: Doc<A>, f: (a: A) => B): Doc<B>
}

Added in v1.0.0

unAnnotate

Removes all annotations from a document.

Note: with each invocation, the entire document tree is traversed. If possible, it is preferable to unannotate a document after producing the layout using unAnnotateS.

Signature

export declare const unAnnotate: <A>(self: Doc<A>) => Doc<never>

Added in v1.0.0

const doc: Doc.Doc<never> = pipe(Doc.char("a"), Doc.catWithSpace(Doc.char("b")))

assert.strictEqual(Doc.render(doc, { style: "pretty" }), "a b")

Added in v1.0.0

cats

The cats combinator will attempt to lay out a collection of documents separated by nothing. If the output does not fit the page, then the documents will be separated by newlines. This is what differentiates it from vcat, which always lays out documents beneath one another.

Signature

export declare const cats: <A>(docs: Iterable<Doc<A>>) => Doc<A>

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import * as String from "effect/String"

// If the document exceeds the width of the page, the documents are rendered
// one above another
assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(doc, {
    style: "pretty",

)

assert.strictEqual(Doc.render(doc, { style: "pretty" }), "a b")

Added in v1.0.0

fillCat

The fillCat combinator concatenates all documents in a collection horizontally by placing a empty between each pair of documents as long as they fit the page. Once the page width is exceeded, a lineBreak is inserted and the process is repeated for all documents in the collection.

Note: the use of lineBreak means that if grouped, the documents will be separated with empty instead of newlines. See fillSep if you want a space instead.

Signature

export declare const fillCat: <A>(docs: Iterable<Doc<A>>) => Doc<A>

Added in v1.0.0

hcat

The hcat combinator concatenates all documents in a collection horizontally without any spacing.

assert.strictEqual(Doc.render(doc, { style: "pretty" }), "loremipsumdolor")

Added in v1.0.0

vcat

The vcat combinator concatenates all documents in a collection vertically. If the output is grouped then the line breaks are removed.

In other words vcat is like vsep, with newlines removed instead of replaced by spaces.

Signature

export declare const vcat: <A>(docs: Iterable<Doc<A>>) => Doc<A>

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import * as String from "effect/String"

flattening

changesUponFlattening

Select the first element of each Union and discard the first element of each FlatAlt to produce a “flattened” version of the input document.

The result is Flattened if the element might change depending on the chosen layout algorithm (i.e., the resulting document contains sub-documents that may be rendered differently).

The result is AlreadyFlat if the document is static (i.e., the resulting document contains only a plain Empty node).

NeverFlat is returned when the document cannot be flattened because it contains either a hard Line or a Fail.

empty

The empty document behaves like a document containing the empty string (""), so it has a height of 1.

This may lead to surprising behavior if the empty document is expected to bear no weight inside certain layout functions, such asvcat, where it will render an empty line of output.

Signature

export declare const empty: Doc<never>

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import * as String from "effect/String"

const doc = Doc.vsep([
  Doc.text("hello"),

  Doc.parenthesized(Doc.empty),
  Doc.text("world")
])

const expected = `|hello
                  |()

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import * as String from "effect/String"

const doc: Doc.Doc<never> = Doc.hcat([Doc.text("lorem ipsum"), Doc.hardLine, Doc.text("dolor sit amet")])

// Even with enough space, a line break is introduced
assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(doc, {
    style: "pretty",

import * as String from "effect/String"

const doc: Doc.Doc<never> = Doc.hcat([Doc.text("lorem ipsum"), Doc.softLine, Doc.text("dolor sit amet")])

separation

fillSep

The fillSep combinator concatenates all documents in a collection horizontally by placing a space between each pair of documents as long as they fit the page. Once the page width is exceeded, a line is inserted and the process is repeated for all documents in the collection.

Note: the use of line means that if grouped, the documents will be separated with a space instead of newlines. See fillCat if you do not want a space.

Signature

export declare const fillSep: <A>(docs: Iterable<Doc<A>>) => Doc<A>

Added in v1.0.0

hsep

The hsep combinator concatenates all documents in a collection horizontally by placing a space between each pair of documents.

For automatic line breaks, consider using fillSep.

Signature

export declare const hsep: <A>(docs: Iterable<Doc<A>>) => Doc<A>

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"

const doc: Doc.Doc<never> = Doc.hsep(Doc.words("lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"))

assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(doc, {
    style: "pretty",
    options: { lineWidth: 80 }
  }),
  "lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"
)

// The `hsep` combinator will not introduce line breaks on its own, even when
// the page is too narrow
assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(doc, {
    style: "pretty",
    options: { lineWidth: 5 }
  }),
  "lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"
)

Added in v1.0.0

seps

The seps combinator will attempt to lay out a collection of documents separated by spaces. If the output does not fit the page, then the documents will be separated by newlines. This is what differentiates it from vsep, which always lays out documents beneath one another.

Signature

export declare const seps: <A>(docs: Iterable<Doc<A>>) => Doc<A>

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import * as String from "effect/String"

const doc: Doc.Doc<never> = Doc.hsep([Doc.text("prefix"), Doc.seps(Doc.words("text to lay out"))])

assert.strictEqual(Doc.render(doc, { style: "pretty" }), "prefix text to lay out")

// If the page width is too narrow, documents are separated by newlines
assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(doc, {
    style: "pretty",
    options: { lineWidth: 20 }
  }),
  String.stripMargin(
    `|prefix text
     |to
     |lay
     |out`
  )
)

Added in v1.0.0

vsep

The vsep combinator concatenates all documents in a collection vertically. If a group undoes the line breaks inserted by vsep, the documents are separated with a space instead.

When a vsep is grouped, the documents are separated with a space if the layoutfits the page, otherwise nothing is done. See the sep convenience function for this use case.

Signature

export declare const vsep: <A>(docs: Iterable<Doc<A>>) => Doc<A>

Example

import * as Doc from "@effect/printer/Doc"
import * as String from "effect/String"

const unaligned = Doc.hsep([Doc.text("prefix"), Doc.vsep(Doc.words("text to lay out"))])

assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(unaligned, { style: "pretty" }),
  String.stripMargin(
    `|prefix text
     |to
     |lay
     |out`
  )
)

// The `align` function can be used to align the documents under their first
// element
const aligned = Doc.hsep([Doc.text("prefix"), Doc.align(Doc.vsep(Doc.words("text to lay out")))])

assert.strictEqual(
  Doc.render(aligned, { style: "pretty" }),
  String.stripMargin(
    `|prefix text
     |       to
     |       lay
