Railway-oriented error handling for Haskell.
Monad.Rail is a Haskell library for Railway-Oriented Programming (ROP), a functional approach to error handling that makes error paths explicit and composable.
The library provides:
RailT- A monad transformer for building reliable applicationsType-safe error handling with support for error accumulation
Automatic JSON serialization of errors for logging and monitoring
The
<!>operator for combining validations while collecting all errorsIntegration with any error type implementing
HasErrorInfo
Railway-Oriented Programming separates success and failure paths, making it easy to handle both cases explicitly. The <!> operator is particularly useful for validation scenarios where you want to report all validation errors at once rather than stopping at the first failure.
For more information and examples, see the documentation for Monad.Rail.
