Hi, I just uploaded a library to hackagedb: http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/ForSyDe Everything went smoothly, but the webpage shows certain hidden modules (other-modules section in the cabal description) as exposed. Am I missing something or is this a bug in HackageDB? Best regards, Alfonso Acosta

I think I must be missing something. Looking at the page currently and comparing it to the .cabal file, the page lists only the exposed modules and not the other modules. BTW, you may be pleased to know that the latest version of Cabal lets you use (a restricted form of) wildcards in the extra-source-files field. Duncan

My bad, I was the one missing something, sorry for the noise. Everything makes sense now, the bug was just in my head.

Great! When will we see a doc-files category?

BTW, can someone tell me how long does HackageDB normally take to compile the uploaded packages and generate the haddock documentation? On Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 7:39 PM, Alfonso Acosta wrote:

It's normally on the order of a few hours. I'm afraid I do not know exactly. Duncan

I'm just asking because I uploaded this package 4 days ago and it still doesn't show the haddock documentation http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/parameterized-dat... There is no rush, I'm just trying to understand how the compilation of packages works HackageDB (I uploaded some other packages after that one and their haddock documentation is ready)

I was specifically excluding type-level and parameterized-data for some reason that I can't remember. So I've stopped.

When people can agree on some conventions on how to build various formats of documentation. We have all these easy conventions for source code; we pretty much know how to build a .hs file without needing custom build rules for every package. For documentation however there is much less consensus or common convention. What do I do with a .xml file? Is it xhtml, or do I need to do something obscure with docbook? This would be an excellent area for someone to take charge, look at the current common uses and see if there is a way of making the common simple stuff easy. Duncan
