2026-04-18 08:23:52 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> you can create a record "{ mapKey = SomeUnionType, mapValue = "foo" }" but it seems it won't recognize it as an actual Map then

2026-04-18 08:14:35 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> yes it expects Text

2026-04-18 08:13:46 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> so it seems to expect Text
2026-04-18 08:13:40 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> This is what I get when using "keyValue" with a sum type

2026-04-18 08:01:19 +0000 <haskellbridge> <ozkutuk> maerwald: I am confused by this though, the Prelude functions seem to be general over the key type?
2026-04-18 08:00:49 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> I don't need a turing complete language for that
2026-04-18 08:00:32 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> What I'm trying to do is to have a flat description of data that gets turned into a deeply nested map... but you have to handle value updates for collisions
2026-04-18 07:57:29 +0000 <haskellbridge> <ozkutuk> maerwald: yeah this gets annoying super fast. There is a function to do function composition ("compose"), but it is pretty much useless because you need to explicitly provide the type of both sides and also the return type...

2026-04-18 07:52:52 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> using functions like fold/map with all the verbose type annotations looks super confusing too

2026-04-18 07:51:54 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> it seems the only value it brings is a little bit of string interpolation... and that's all
2026-04-18 07:50:30 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> no sensible way to do updates (e.g. to do deeply nested merges)
2026-04-18 07:49:56 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> you can't do lookup even
2026-04-18 07:49:50 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> keys have to be text (but guess what... you can't compare text, lol)...
2026-04-18 07:49:19 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> Also, the Map interface... oh dear
2026-04-18 07:48:52 +0000 <haskellbridge> <ozkutuk> In your case I don't think there is much you can do
2026-04-18 07:48:38 +0000 <haskellbridge> <ozkutuk> Ah, I see. This solution assumed you are using Dhall in your application to parse config, hence I qualified my initial response with "if you are using Dhall as a library"

2026-04-18 07:44:50 +0000 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> What application code? I want to use it to generate yaml. Now everyone who wants to use my config has to build their own dhall binary.
2026-04-18 07:44:38 +0000 <haskellbridge> <ozkutuk> Say, you use "Dhall.inputWithSettings <yourSettings>", rather than "Dhall.input"
