A vim compiler that uses stack ghc.

Installation

1. Add pbrisbin/vim-compiler-stack to your preferred plugin manager

   Example:

   Plug 'pbrisbin/vim-compiler-stack'

2. Set the compiler, probably in a FileType hook

   autocmd FileType haskell compiler ghc

   TODO: do this automatically in an after plugin.

Usage

Run :make in a Haskell file. Move through errors with :cn/:cp, view them in a list with :copen.

GHC Configuration

The compilation process will respect {.,~}/ghci, so any required settings should be added there (e.g. language extensions). This makes it trivial to have global and project-local settings.

Extra Configuration

I don't recommend triggering compilation on every write. This plugin doesn't aim to do anything fancy to avoid the UI freeze while ghc is doing its thing. Therefore, I recommend mapping it to an explicit action instead:

map <Leader>c :silent :make<CR>

The following will automatically open and close the QuickFix window when errors are found or resolved, which is handy in general (e.g. :grep):

autocmd QuickFixCmdPost    l* nested lwindow
autocmd QuickFixCmdPost [^l]* nested cwindow
