特别是,我需要能够将CGI monad与IO monad结合起来,但是如何将IO monad与Maybe monad相结合的示例可能会更好......

我假设你想使用Maybe monad提前终止(比如C中的break
或return
)。
在这种情况下,您应该使用MaybeT包中的MaybeT
(cabal install MaybeT
)。
main = do
runMaybeT . forever $ do
liftIO $ putStrLn "I won't stop until you type pretty please"
line <- liftIO getLine
when ("pretty please" == line) mzero
return ()
MaybeT是monad的monad变换器版本。
Monad变形金刚“向其他monad添加功能”。

您并未确切地说明要如何合并IO
和Maybe
,但我认为您有许多函数会返回IO (Maybe a)
,您希望轻松合并它们。基本上,您希望将IO (Maybe a)
视为一个单独的类型,并使用它自己的Monad
实例:
newtype IOMaybe a = IOM (IO (Maybe a))
-- "unpack" a value of the new type
runIOMaybe :: IOMaybe a -> IO (Maybe a)
runIOMaybe (IOM a) = a
instance Monad IOMaybe where
-- bind operator
(IOM ioa) >>= f = IOM $ do
a <- ioa
case a of
Nothing -> return Nothing
Just v -> runIOMaybe (f v)
-- return
return a = IOM (return (Just a))
-- maybe also some convenience functions
returnIO :: IO a -> IOMaybe a
returnIO ioa = IOM $ do
v <- ioa
return (Just v)
returnMaybe :: Maybe a -> IOMaybe a
returnMaybe ma = IOM (return ma)
使用此功能,您可以使用do
- 符号来合并返回IO (Maybe a)
,IO a
或Maybe a
的函数:
f1 :: Int -> IO (Maybe Int)
f1 0 = return Nothing
f1 a = return (Just a)
main = runIOMaybe $ do
returnIO $ putStrLn "Hello"
a <- returnMaybe $ Just 2
IOM $ f1 a
return ()
一般来说,组合和修改像这样的monad的东西叫做monad transformer,而GHC附带的package包括monad变换器用于常见情况。如果此monad变换器库中有适合您的场景的内容取决于您希望如何组合Maybe和IO。

你想在什么意义上结合monad?
f :: Int -> IO (Maybe Int)
f x = do
putStrLn "Hello world!"
return $ if x == 0 then Nothing else Just x
可以评估为:
[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( maybe-io.hs, interpreted )
Ok, modules loaded: Main.
*Main> f 0
Hello world!
Nothing
*Main> f 3
Hello world!
Just 3
