Basics
data CGI a
show/hide Instances
class Monad cgi => CGIMonad cgi
show/hide Instances
ask :: CGIMonad cgi => WithHTML x cgi a -> cgi ()
Takes a monadic value that constructs a HTML page and delivers this page to the browser. This page may contain forms and input widgets.
tell :: (CGIMonad cgi, CGIOutput a) => a -> cgi ()
Terminates script by sending its argument to the browser.
io :: (Read a, Show a) => IO a -> CGI a
Safe embedding of an IO action into the CGI monad. Intentionally not parameterized óver its monad to avoid its use inside of transactions.
run :: CGI () -> IO ()

Turns a CGI action into an IO action. Used to turn the main CGI action into the main function of the program. Typical use:

 main = run mainCGI
runWithOptions :: CGIOptions -> CGI () -> IO ()

Turns a CGI action into an IO action. Used to turn the main CGI action into the main function of the program. Takes additional low-level options. Typical use:

 main = runWithOptions [] mainCGI
once :: (CGIMonad cgi, Read a, Show a) => cgi a -> cgi a
Brackets a CGI action so that only its result is visible. Improves efficiency by not executing the bracketed action after it has been performed once. Use this for avoiding the inefficient buildup of long interaction logs.
forever :: CGIMonad cgi => cgi () -> cgi ()
Repeats a CGI action without saving its state so that the size of the interaction log remains constant.
callWithCurrentHistory :: (CGIMonad cgi, Read a, Show a) => ((a -> cgi ()) -> a -> cgi ()) -> a -> cgi ()

Control operator for the CGI monad. Its specification is

 callWithCurrentHistory (\backto x -> action x >>= backto) x
 ==
 action x >>= callWithCurrentHistory (\backto x -> action x >>= backto)

However, callWithCurrentHistory is more efficient because it avoids the buildup of long interaction logs by cutting back every time just before action gets executed.

htell :: CGIMonad cgi => WithHTML x IO () -> cgi a
Terminate script by sending a HTML page constructed by monadic argument.
askOffline :: CGIMonad cgi => WithHTML x cgi a -> (Element -> IO ()) -> cgi ()
Like ask, but passes the constructed HTML page to the elementAction parameter. This function may send the page via Email or store it into a file. Anyone loading this page in a browser can resume the interaction.

Forms and Widgets
type HTMLField cgi x y a = WithHTML x cgi () -> WithHTML y cgi a
Every input widget maps the content generator for the widget (which may produce HTML elements or attributes) to the content generator of the widget.
Form Creation
makeForm :: CGIMonad cgi => WithHTML x cgi a -> WithHTML y cgi ()
Wraps an HTML form around its arguments. All standard attributes are computed and need not be supplied explicitly.
standardQuery :: CGIMonad cgi => String -> WithHTML x cgi a -> cgi ()
Convenient workhorse. Takes the title of a page and a monadic HTML value for the contents of the page. Wraps the contents in a form so that input fields and buttons may be used inside.
Form Submission
submit
:: (CGIMonad cgi, InputHandle h)
=> h INVALIDinput field handles to be validated and passed to callback action
-> (h VALID -> cgi ())callback maps valid input handles to a CGI action
-> HTMLField cgi x y ()returns a field so that attributes can be attached
Create a submission button with attached action.
submit0 :: CGIMonad cgi => cgi () -> HTMLField cgi x y ()
Create a continuation button that takes no parameters.
defaultSubmit :: (CGIMonad cgi, InputHandle h) => h INVALID -> (h VALID -> cgi ()) -> HTMLField cgi x y ()
Create a submission button whose attached action is fired whenever the form is submitted without explicitly clicking any submit button. This can happen if an input field has an attached onclick=submit() action.
resetField :: CGIMonad cgi => HTMLField cgi x y (InputField () INVALID)

activeInputField
:: (CGIMonad cgi, Reason a, Read a)

activate :: (CGIMonad cgi, InputHandle (i a), HasValue i) => (a -> cgi ()) -> HTMLField cgi x y (i a INVALID) -> HTMLField cgi x y (i a INVALID)
Attach a CGI action to the value returned by the input field. Activation means that data is submitted as soon as it is entered.
submitLink :: (CGIMonad cgi, InputHandle h) => h INVALID -> (h VALID -> cgi ()) -> HTMLCons x y cgi ()
Create an ordinary link serving as a submission button.
submitLink0 :: CGIMonad cgi => cgi () -> HTMLCons x y cgi ()
Create a continuation link.
defaultSubmitLink :: (CGIMonad cgi, InputHandle h) => h INVALID -> (h VALID -> cgi ()) -> HTMLCons x y cgi ()
submitx :: DTree cgi x y -> HTMLField cgi x y ()
Create a submission button whose validation proceeds according to a decision tree. Trees are built using dtleaf and dtnode.
data DTree cgi x y
Abstract type of decisions trees. These trees provide structured validation.
dtleaf :: CGIMonad cgi => cgi () -> DTree cgi x y
Create a leaf in a decision tree from a CGI action.
dtnode :: (CGIMonad cgi, InputHandle h) => h INVALID -> (h VALID -> DTree cgi x y) -> DTree cgi x y
Create a node in a decision tree. Takes an invalid input field and a continuation. Validates the input field and passes it to the continuation if the validation was successful. The continuation can dispatch on the value of the input field and produces a new decision tree.
Textual Input
inputField :: (CGIMonad cgi, Reason a, Read a) => HTMLField cgi x y (InputField a INVALID)
Create a textual input field. Return type can be *anything* in class Reason and Read.
textInputField :: CGIMonad cgi => HTMLField cgi x y (InputField String INVALID)

checkedTextInputField :: CGIMonad cgi => (Maybe String -> Maybe String) -> HTMLField cgi x y (InputField String INVALID)
Creates a textual input field that takes a custom validation function.
passwordInputField :: (CGIMonad cgi, Reason a, Read a) => HTMLField cgi x y (InputField a INVALID)
Like inputField but the characters are not echoed on the screen.
makeTextarea :: CGIMonad cgi => String -> HTMLField cgi x y (InputField String INVALID)
Create a text area with a preset string.
Checkbox
checkboxInputField :: CGIMonad cgi => HTMLField cgi x y (InputField Bool INVALID)

Create a new radio button and attach it to an existing RadioGroup.
radioError :: CGIMonad cgi => RadioGroup a INVALID -> WithHTML x cgi ()
Create and place the error indicator for an existing RadioGroup. Becomes visible only if no button of a radio group is pressed.
Image
imageField :: CGIMonad cgi => Image -> HTMLField cgi x y (InputField (Int, Int) INVALID)

-> HTMLField cgi x y (InputField [a] INVALID)
Create a selection box where multiple entries can be selected.
selectSingle
:: (CGIMonad cgi, Eq a)

Selection box for elements of a Bounded type. Argument is the optional preselected value.
File
fileInputField :: CGIMonad cgi => HTMLField cgi x y (InputField FileReference INVALID)
Creates a file input field. Returns a temporary FileReference. The fileReferenceName of the result is *not* guaranteed to be persistent. The application is responsible for filing it away at a safe place.
checkedFileInputField :: CGIMonad cgi => (Maybe FileReference -> Maybe FileReference) -> HTMLField cgi x y (InputField FileReference INVALID)
Creates a file input field. Like fileInputField but has an additional parameter for additional validation of the input.
Abstract Selection
