Introduction

At DICOM Grid, we recently made the decision to use Haskell for some of our newer projects, mostly small, independent web services. This isn't the first time I've had the opportunity to use Haskell at work - I had previously used Haskell to write tools to automate some processes like generation of documentation for TypeScript code - but this is the first time we will be deploying Haskell code into production.

Over the past few months, I have been working on two Haskell services:

A reimplementation of an existing socket.io service, previously written for NodeJS using TypeScript.
A new service, which would interact with third-party components using standard data formats from the medical industry.

I will write here mostly about the first project, since it is a self-contained project which provides a good example of the power of Haskell. Moreover, the proces

Sendy

Sendy is a self hosted email newsletter application that lets you send trackable emails via Amazon Simple Email Service (SES).

Heroku

You can deploy Sendy on Heroku using the following instructions (I assume you've already installed the heroku toolbelt).

On Heroku, create a new app.
Clone that app to your desktop

The introduction to Reactive Programming you've been missing

This tutorial as a series of videos

If you prefer to watch video tutorials with live-coding, then check out this series I recorded with the same contents as in this article: Egghead.io - Introduction to Reactive Programming.

build

Clone and build Node for analysis:

$ git clone https://github.com/joyent/node.git
$ cd node
$ export GYP_DEFINES="v8_enable_disassembler=1"
$ ./configure
$ make -j4

Weird Idea

UPDATE working on this here!

so… I've had this weird idea recently...

In git (and in other secure + distributed systems) you have a tree of hashes where each object is identified by it's hash and objects contain pointers to other objects. They just have the hash of other objects stored inside them.
