pinch

This library provides machinery for types to specify how they can be serialized and deserialized into/from Thrift payloads. It makes no assumptions on how these payloads are sent or received and performs no code generation. Types may specify how to be serialized and deserialized by defining instances of the Pinchable typeclass by hand, or with automatically derived instances by using generics. Check the documentation in the Pinch module for more information. What is Thrift? Apache Thrift provides an interface description language, a set of communication protocols, and a code generator and libraries for various programming languages to interact with the generated code. Pinch aims to provide an alternative implementation of Thrift for Haskell.
