Re: [Haskell-cafe] Stack space overflow in HaskellNet
Hello, I guess I should stick my hand up as the supposed maintainer of HaskellNet. Unfortunately I can't say that I know the code that well. Two years ago I rescued it from bitrot cabalized it and when I couldn't get any response from the original author put myself down as the maintainer. It is a package which is starting to show its age. Michael Snoyman and I had a conversation in February agreeing that I should try to revamp it by applying some techniques such as those used in blaze html. Unfortunately, I haven't had the time. I agree with the post above that for mime mail HaskellNet shouldn't be retreiving all of the messages with their message bodies. I might see if I can get a chance to work on it a little this weekend but if someone is using the library and has some time to make some changes that person woould be very welcome (and I'd be more than happy if someone wishes to take over as the maintenance). -Rob On Wed, Jul 27, 2011 at 5:47 PM, Donn Cave d...@avvanta.com wrote: Quoth Manfred Lotz manfred.l...@arcor.de, ... The problem seems to lie in the HaskellNet package. If for example I only fetch a specific message m - fetch con 2092 having a size of some 1.2m then I get the same stack overflow. If at runtime I specify +RTS -K40M -RTS it works but takes over 40 seconds to fetch the message. That's not so good, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a natural parsing problem, I mean it's just a lot of data to run through a Haskell parser. IMAP does give you the means to mitigate the problem - the big data transfer in a FETCH response is preceded by a byte count - but to really take advantage of that, how far do you go? I don't have much experience with general purpose parsers, do they often support an efficient counted string read? Is it OK to return String, or do we need a more efficient type (e.g., ByteString?) Is it OK to return any kind of string value - given that a message part could be arbitrarily long (and needs to be decoded), do you go to a lot of trouble to support large message parts but not extremely large ones? For me, the answer is for the parser to bail out, reporting the counted input as a count but leaving it to the application to actually effect the data transfer and return to finish the parse. That's only moderately complicated, but it's part of a general philosophy about application driven I/O vs. protocol parsing that seems to be mine alone. I have no idea how much could be done to tighten up HaskellNet.IMAP. Someone who understands it well enough might be able to get a miraculous improvement with a strictness annotation or something. Maybe you could track that down with profiling.

Re: [Haskell-cafe] Re: Should Yesod.Mail be a separate package?
I've had a look at mime-mail and think it provides a nice interface
for sending emails.
I started trying to write up a simple default interface to it for
easily adding attachments (I was going to look at adding a
pandoc-based automatic markdown to html later today).
getMimeType ('g':'p':'j':'.':_) = image/jpeg
getMimeType ('g':'e':'p':'j':'.':_) = image/jpeg
getMimeType ('f':'d':'p':'.':_) = application/pdf

do
readAttachments - mapM (\x - B.readFile x) attachments
return Mail {
mailHeaders =
[ (To, to)
,(From, from)
,(Subject, subject)
]
, mailParts =
[
[ Part text/plain None Nothing $ LU.fromString
$ unlines body
, Part text/html None Nothing $ LU.fromString
$ unlines body
]]
++
(map (\x - [Part (getMimeType $ reverse $ fst x)
Base64 (Just $ fst x) $ snd x])
$ zip attachments readAttachments)
}

renderSendMail myMail
HaskellNet uses Bytestrings for sending mail so it might be easier to
use it for basic smarthost
sending with mime-mail than with SMTPClient -- but then again
SMTPClient looks at first blush
to be more adaptable.
I tried to use put the result of renderMail' into HaskellNet's sendMail
renderedMail - renderMail' myMail
HN.sendMail from [to] renderedMail con
HN.closeSMTP con
but the typechecker didn't like it:
Couldn't match expected type `Data.ByteString.Internal.ByteString'
against inferred type `B.ByteString'
In the third argument of `HN.sendMail', namely `renderedMail'
because B.ByteString is Data.ByteString.Lazy.
Not sure how easy that would be to fix. I'm a little confused by all
the different
types of ByteStrings.

Proper SMTP support will also include SSL/TLS support, which will

SMTPClient,
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/SMTPClient-1.0.3
can be used to send mail via SMTP to a smart host. It is still based
on 'String', but it is a start. To send a simple message you can do:
import Network.SMTP.Simple
import System.IO
main :: IO ()
main = do
sendSimpleMessages (hPutStrLn stderr) 10.2.23.11 example.com
[message]
where message = SimpleMessage
[NameAddr (Just John Doe) jo...@example.com]
[NameAddr (Just Team) t...@exmaple.com]
My test email using Network.SMTP.Simple
Hi, this is a test email which uses SMTPClient.
I wonder what it would take to make it so that the message body could
be multipart mime...
Currently, the idea in mime-mail is to produce fully-formed messages,
complete with headers, encoded as UTF-8 lazy bytestrings. To address
the headers issue, we would need to do one of:
* Allow SMTPClient to accept messages with the headers already attached.
* Modify mime-mail to produce a list of headers separate from the
message content. I'm not opposed to this.
Regarding the String/ByteString issue, there are three choices I believe:
* Switch mime-mail to use Strings. I *am* opposed to this ;).
* Switch SMTPClient to use ByteStrings. I think this is the right answer.
* Leave the libraries as-is, and just use a Lazy.Char8.unpack to bridge the
two.
Am I leaving anything out? I'd be happy to try and get mime-mail to
work with SMTPClient.

Re: [Haskell-cafe] PDF generation?
Last year, I was playing around with using the Hieroglyph library for pdf creation via it's Cairo backend (which I guess amounts to the same thing as using gtk2hs' pdf output). http://wrwills.webfactional.com/docs/pandocHieroglyph/ You should be able to use Diagrams as well as it also has a cairo backend. http://hackage.haskell.org/package/diagrams -Rob On Tue, Jun 1, 2010 at 5:15 PM, Pierre-Etienne Meunier pierreetienne.meun...@gmail.com wrote: On Tue, 1 Jun 2010, Jim Tittsler wrote: What is the easiest way to create PDF files from Haskell?

Re: [Haskell-cafe] Anyone recommend a VPS?
I use Webfaction. http://www.webfaction.com/services/hosting It's not a personal vps but you get ssh access and you can run any webserver you want-- even a Haskell one: http://wrwills.webfactional.com/2009/10/30/Haskell-on-a-Webfaction-Host They support Postgres databases too. It's cheaper than a vps (I'm paying $8.50 a month but you can pay as little as $5.50), but possibly not as convenient. -Rob On Sun, Jan 31, 2010 at 11:05 PM, Tom Tobin korp...@korpios.com wrote: On Sun, Jan 31, 2010 at 3:37 PM, Michael Snoyman mich...@snoyman.com wrote: OK, I guess the unananimous opinion in linode ;).

Re: [Haskell-cafe] Market Place for Haskell development teams?
fwiw I found it difficult getting a Haskell installation onto Windows. Packages that would 'cabal install' just fine on Linux were much more of a pain on Windows. Eventually, I actually found it easiest to cross compile to Windows using wine: wine HaskellPlatform-2009.2.0.2-setup.exe wine cabal wine cabal install yst The resulting yst.exe seems to work fine on actual Windows machines. Quite cool I thought as I prefer to stay in Linux, but if you're starting from a Windows based development environment, Haskell does seem problematic. -Rob John A. De Goes wrote: The cross-platform features have been extremely important to the success of Java, because they have greatly expanded the number of libraries available to developers. On Haskell Cafe, not a week goes by that Windows (and sometimes Mac) developers don't complain about not being able to use some Hackage library because of cross-platform issues. The actual number of people encountering these issues is orders of magnitude larger than the number of posts you see here. These issues impede the growth of Haskell significantly. Moreover, the importance of cross-platform libraries on the Java platform is evinced by the fact that developers of major native libraries _always_ make their libraries cross-platform (Jogl, jmonkeyengine, swt, etc.). They wouldn't go to this trouble if it weren't something the community was demanding. From a risk management perspective, a manager really likes the ability to seamlessly move across platforms and architectures without recompilation. 32 - 64? No problem. Linux - BSD? Sure, why not? Yes, I'm sure even Amazon, Yahoo, and Google make these kinds of considerations. Regards, John A. De Goes N-Brain, Inc.

Re: [Haskell-cafe] haskellnet
I tried contacting Jun Mukai at the email address given in the package but I haven't heard a reply. Just to get this out of the way I've put my darcs repository with the changes I've made up on my website. It should build and install with: darcs get http://www.dicta.org.uk/website/website/haskellnet cabal configure cabal build cabal install I've added some examples of using smtp, pop3 and imap to the examples directory. They seem to work against the mail servers that I have access to. I've also removed some modules from haskellnet which are now covered elswhere in hackage: eg. http, browser, json I'll put in a request to get a username on hackage so I can upload it-- unless anyone has any objections. -Rob On Thu, May 14, 2009 at 2:37 PM, Neil Mitchell ndmitch...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Email the original author, if you can.
