haddock - documentation tool for annotated Haskell source code
haddock [options] file...
This manual page documents briefly the haddock command.
Extensive documentation is available in various other formats including DVI,
PostScript and HTML; see below.
file is a filename containing a Haskell source module. All
the modules specified on the command line will be processed together. When
one module refers to an entity in another module being processed, the
documentation will link directly to that entity.
Entities that cannot be found, for example because they are in a
module that is not being processed as part of the current batch, simply will
not be hyperlinked in the generated documentation. haddock will emit
warnings listing all the identifiers it could not resolve.
The modules should not be mutually recursive, as haddock
does not like swimming in circles.
The programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
options starting with two dashes (`--'). A summary of options is included
below. For a complete description, see the other documentation.
- -o DIR,
--odir=DIR
- directory in which to put the output files
- -i FILE,
--read-interface=FILE
- read an interface from FILE.
- -D FILE,
--dump-interface=FILE
- dump an interface for these modules in FILE.
- -l DIR,
--lib=DIR
- location of Haddock's auxiliary files
- -h, --html
- Generate documentation in HTML format. Several files will be generated
into the current directory (or the specified directory if the -o
option is given), including the following:
- index.html
- The top level page of the documentation: lists the modules available,
using indentation to represent the hierarchy if the modules are
hierarchical.
- haddock.css
- The stylesheet used by the generated HTML. Feel free to modify this to
change the colors or layout, or even specify your own stylesheet using the
--css option.
- module.html
- An HTML page for each module.
- doc-index.html,
doc-index-XX.html
- The index, split into two (functions/constructors and types/classes, as
per Haskell namespaces) and further split alphabetically.
- --hoogle
- output for Hoogle
- --html-help=format
- produce index and table of contents in mshelp, mshelp2 or devhelp format
(with -h)
- --source-base=URL
- Include links to the source files in the generated documentation, where
URL is the base URL where the source files can be found.
- -s URL,
--source-module=URL
- Include links to the source files in the generated documentation, where
URL is a source code link for each module (using the %{FILE} or %{MODULE}
vars).
- --source-entity=URL
- Include links to the source files in the generated documentation, where
URL is a source code link for each entity (using the %{FILE}, %{MODULE} or
%{NAME} vars).
- URL for a comments link on the contents and index pages.
- URL for a comments link for each module (using the %{MODULE} var).
- URL for a comments link for each entity (using the %{FILE}, %{MODULE} or
%{NAME} vars).
- --css=FILE
- Use the CSS FILE instead of the default stylesheet that comes with
haddock for HTML output. It should specify certain classes: see the
default stylesheet for details.
- -p FILE,
--prologue=FILE
- Specify a file containing prologue text.
- -t TITLE,
--title=TITLE
- Use TITLE as the page heading for each page in the documentation.
This will normally be the name of the library being documented.
The title should be a plain string (no markup please!).
- -k NAME,
--package=NAME
- Specify the package name (optional).
- -n,
--no-implicit-prelude
- do not assume Prelude is imported
- -d, --debug
- Enable extra debugging output.
- -?, --help
- Display help.
- -V, --version
- Display version.
- -v, --verbose
- Verbose status reporting.
- --use-contents=URL
- Use a separately-generated HTML contents page.
- --gen-contents
- Generate an HTML contents from specified interfaces.
- --use-index=URL
- Use a separately-generated HTML index.
- --gen-index
- Generate an HTML index from specified interfaces.
- --ignore-all-exports
- Behave as if all modules have the ignore-exports atribute
- --hide=MODULE
- Behave as if MODULE has the hide attribute.
- --use-package=PACKAGE
- The modules being processed depend on PACKAGE.
