SuaveIO/suave

I've created a library to be able to write code in the style of Suave

Since it uses the IAppliactionBuilder there doesn't need to be that much implementation code.

What are your thoughts?

Cool, but isn't this basically what Giraffe does ?

wallymathieu commented

Giraffe focuses more on performance so uses Task<_> and CPS instead of Async<_>. I feel that using Async<_> is more composable (slightly nicer to work with). It could also be that I need to figure out the monad transformers for Giraffe.

From a personal perspective I would start out with something Suavish and then go Giraffe if I need to optimize performance further.

ademar commented

I see. I agree that Async<_> is easier to work with.

From talking with @cannorin, it feels like @cannorin has put a lot of thought into scanf, so perhaps could rewrite the scanf implementation in Suave?

cannorin commented

My scanf ( https://github.com/cannorin/FSharp.CommandLine/blob/master/src/FSharp.Scanf/scanf.fs ) works 10x faster than that of Suave but

  1. it introduces additional dependency (FParsec)
  2. the optimisation only works with up to 7-tuples, and for 8-tuples and more you have to fall back to reflections which is about 7x slower compared to the optimised ones
