Reimplementing a NodeJS Service in Haskell

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

A style guide for Elm tools

Haskell Style Guide for Elm

Goal: a consistent style throughout all Elm projects that is easy to read and produces clean diffs to make debugging easier. This means valuing regularity and simplicity over cleverness.

Line Length

Keep it under 80 characters. Going over is not the end of the world, but consider refactoring before you decide a line really must be longer.

Git HTTP transport protocol documentation
HTTP transfer protocols
=======================
Git supports two HTTP based transfer protocols. A "dumb" protocol
which requires only a standard HTTP server on the server end of the
connection, and a "smart" protocol which requires a Git aware CGI
(or server module). This document describes both protocols.
As a design feature smart clients can automatically upgrade "dumb"
protocol URLs to smart URLs. This permits all users to have the
