 I tried to understand soem Servant code, and added

 {{{#!hs
       bodyCheck :: _
 }}}

 To the following code

 {{{#!hs
 -# LANGUAGE DataKinds #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeOperators #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE FlexibleInstances #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE ScopedTypeVariables #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE TypeSynonymInstances #-}
 {-# LANGUAGE MultiParamTypeClasses #-}
 module Servant.Files ( FilesTmp
                      , FilesMem
                      , MultiPartData
                      , MultiPartDataT
                      , Tmp
                      , Mem
                      ) where

 import Control.Monad.Trans.Resource
 import Data.ByteString.Lazy (ByteString)
 import Network.Wai.Parse
 import Servant
 import Servant.Server.Internal

 -- Backends for file upload: in memory or in /tmp ?

 data Mem
 data Tmp

 class KnownBackend b where
   type Storage b :: *

   withBackend :: Proxy b -> (BackEnd (Storage b) -> IO r) -> IO r

 instance KnownBackend Mem where
   type Storage Mem = ByteString

   withBackend Proxy f = f lbsBackEnd

 instance KnownBackend Tmp where
   type Storage Tmp = FilePath


   withBackend Proxy f = runResourceT . withInternalState $ \s ->
     f (tempFileBackEnd s)

 -- * Files combinator, to get all of the uploaded files

 data Files b

 type MultiPartData b = ([Param], [File (Storage b)])
 type MultiPartDataT b = ((MultiPartData b -> IO (MultiPartData b)) -> IO
 (MultiPartData b))

 type FilesMem = Files Mem
 type FilesTmp = Files Tmp

 instance (KnownBackend b,
           HasServer sublayout config) => HasServer (Files b :> sublayout)
 config where
   type ServerT (Files b :> sublayout) m =
     MultiPartDataT b -> ServerT sublayout m

   route Proxy config subserver = WithRequest $ \request ->
     route (Proxy :: Proxy sublayout) config (addBodyCheck subserver
 (bodyCheck request))
     where
       bodyCheck :: _
       bodyCheck request = return $ Route (\f ->
         withBackend (Proxy :: Proxy b) $ \pb -> parseRequestBody pb
