Use pipes to create elegant streaming programs within Haskell. Build streaming components and connect them them together to process both events and data.

Libraries

Pipes is the official Hackage category for the pipes ecosystem.

pipes

The pipes package is the core library which emphasizes:

  • Elegance and Simplicity
  • Speed
  • Lightweight dependencies

The pipes library offers many unique features not available in other streaming libraries:

  • Bidirectional streams
  • Extension framework
  • Elegant ListT interconversions
  • Correctness proofs for the entire library

pipes-safe

The pipes-safe package adds resource management and exception safety to the pipes ecosystem. pipes-safe offers many high-level features such as:

  • Complete exception safety, including asynchronous exceptions
  • Termination safety
  • Resources are freed in reverse order of acquisition

Additionally, pipes-safe is the only streaming library that provides truly native exception handling, allowing you to seamlessly handle exceptions and resume uninterrupted streaming.
