Snap: A Haskell Web Framework (core interfaces and types)

Snap is a simple and fast web development framework and server written in Haskell. For more information or to download the latest version, you can visit the Snap project website at <<a href="http://snapframework.com/>">http://snapframework.com/></a> . This library contains the core definitions and types for the Snap framework, including: 1. Primitive types and functions for HTTP (requests, responses, cookies, post/query parameters, etc) 2. A monad for programming web handlers called "Snap", which allows: * Stateful access to the HTTP request and response objects * Monadic failure (i.e. MonadPlus/Alternative instances) for declining to handle requests and chaining handlers together * Early termination of the computation if you know early what you want to return and want to prevent further monadic processing /Quick start/: The 'Snap' monad and HTTP definitions are in "Snap.Core".
