-- | Reading from Text and ByteString
--   
--   Provides a Readable type class for reading data types from ByteString
--   and Text. Also includes efficient implementations for common data
--   types.
@package readable
@version 0.3.1


-- | The Read type class is very useful for building data types from String
--   representations. But String has high overhead, so sometimes it isn't
--   suitable for applications where space usage and performance are
--   important. This library provides a simpler version of Read's
--   functionality for Text and ByteStrings.
module Data.Readable

-- | ByteString and Text reading using MonadPlus to handle parse failure.
--   On error, fromText and fromBS will return mzero. You can use mplus to
--   provide fallback defaults.
class Readable a

-- | Reads data from a Text representation.
fromText :: (Readable a, MonadPlus m) => Text -> m a

-- | Reads data from a UTF8 encoded ByteString. The default implementation
--   of this function simply decodes with UTF-8 and then calls the fromText
--   function. If decoding fails, mzero will be returned. You can provide
--   your own implementation if you need different behavior such as not
--   decoding to UTF8.
