[Haskell-cafe] Filtering / branching enumeratee

[Skirmantas Kligys]

Hello,

I am using enumerator-0.4.10, and I need to distribute processing of
different parts of the incoming stream to different iteratees (I am
parsing a huge XML file, and different sub-trees have different
processing logic).  Only a single iteratee will be active at a time
since the sub-trees don't intersect.

I wrote a simple example that filters the stream and passes the result
to one iteratee; please see below.  However, with multiple nested
iteratees it seems to me that I can no longer use an enumeratee.  Do I
need to write my own multi-enumeratee that holds multiple inner
iteratees?  Any better ideas?


Here is my (beginner's) code for a single nested iteratee:

module Main ( main ) where

import qualified Data.Enumerator as E ( Enumeratee, Step(..), Stream(..),
  checkDone, checkDoneEx, continue, enumList, joinI, run_, yield )
import Data.Enumerator ( ($$), (>>==) )
import qualified Data.Enumerator.List as EL ( consume )

-- cribbed from EL.concatMap
concatMapAccum :: Monad m => (s -> ao -> (s, [ai])) -> s ->
E.Enumeratee ao ai m b
concatMapAccum f s0 = E.checkDone (E.continue . step s0)
  where
    step _ k E.EOF = E.yield (E.Continue k) E.EOF
    step s k (E.Chunks xs) = loop s k xs
    loop s k [] = E.continue (step s k)
    loop s k (x:xs) = case f s x of
      (s', ais) -> k (E.Chunks $ ais) >>==
        E.checkDoneEx (E.Chunks xs) (\k' -> loop s' k' xs)

passFromTo :: Monad m => ((a -> Bool), (a -> Bool)) -> Bool ->
E.Enumeratee a a m b
passFromTo (from, to) pass0 =
  concatMapAccum updatePass pass0
    where
      updatePass pass el = case (pass, from el, to el) of
        (True, _, to_el) -> (not to_el, [el])
        (False, True, _) -> (True, [el])
        (False, False, _) -> (False, [])

main :: IO()
main = do
  E.run_ (E.enumList 3 [1..20] $$
    E.joinI $ passFromTo ((\e -> e == 3 || e == 13), (\e -> e == 7 ||
e == 17)) False $$
    EL.consume) >>= print
