# Shnippet
**Shnippet** is a collection of
[YASnippet][yas]
[Haskell][haskell] snippets for Emacs.
## Installation
Clone repository:
$ cd ~/.emacs.d/snippets
$ git clone https://github.com/LukeHoersten/shnippet
OR
$ hg clone https://bitbucket.org/LukeHoersten/shnippet
Add the cloned repository to YASnippet's `yas-snippet-dirs`:
(setq yas-snippet-dirs
'("~/.emacs.d/snippets/shnippet"
"/other/paths/"
))
Snippets may have to be recompiled and reloaded in Emacs if YASnippet
is already in use:
M-x yas-recompile-all
M-x yas-reload-all
Haskell snippts should now be available to use! In a `haskell-mode`
buffer, type `fn<TAB>`. A prompt should appear asking which `fn`
snippet to expand.
I **highly** recommend using YASnippet with [ido-mode]. Configure
Emacs:
(setq-default yas-prompt-functions '(yas-ido-prompt yas-dropdown-prompt))
This is important so that alternatives (like `import` vs. `import
qualified`) can quickly be selected with a single key stroke.
## Available Expansion Keys
* `new` - newtype
* `mod` - module [simple, exports]
* `main ` - main module and funtion
* `let` - let bindings
* `lang` - language extension pragmas
* `\` - lambda function
* `inst` - instance declairation
* `imp` - import modules [simple, qualified]
* `if` - if conditional [inline, block]
* `<-` - monadic get
* `fn` - top level function [simple, guarded, clauses]
* `data` - data type definition [inline, record]
* `=>` - type constraint
* `{-` - block comment
* `case` - case statement
## Design Ideals
* Keep snippet keys (the prefix used to auto-complete) to four
characters or less while still being as easy to guess as possible.
* Have as few keys as possible. The more keys there are to remember,
the harder snippets are to use and learn.
* Leverage [ido-mode][] when reasonable. For instance, to keep the
number of snippet keys to a minimum as well as auto complete things
like [Haskell Langauge Extension Pragmas][lang-pragma]. When
multiple snippets share a key (ex: `fn`), the `ido-mode` prompts are
unique to one character (ex: `guarded function` and `simple
function` are `g` and `s` respectively).
