Re: [Haskell-cafe] Amazonka: is it possible to work around deserialisation bug?

Newtype would be my plan, too. Also really glad to see this thread, because I’m *also* trying to migrate away from “stringing CLI calls together with bash” to a sensible programming model, and this is great to be aware of before I get too into it. Thanks for reporting it upstream (both to the library and to Amazon)! --- ProofTechnique

Hey,

I had a similar problem before, my workaround was creating a newtype wrapper around the original request and implementing 'AWSRequest' instance by hand. That let me override the way response is parsed.

I dug up the code, the override is here: https://github.com/utdemir/distributed-fork/blob/edadea209e7e1fda77ca1d37011... And here is how I sent the request: https://github.com/utdemir/distributed-fork/blob/edadea209e7e1fda77ca1d37011...

That's an arguably nicer way than how I solved it; I just removed the bits causing the error since I didn't need them anyway:

https://github.com/magthe/amazonka/commit/1543b65e3a8b692aa9038ada68aaed9967...

Then I used `stack` to point to my modified version. I wouldn't be surprised if people on the list already know how, but just in case I'll throw in a link to my description of it: http://magnus.therning.org/posts/2019-02-10-000-using-stack-to-get-around-up...
