Bundle assets using TH

Open nikita-volkov opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Judging by the amount of pain expressed on this tracker it doesn't really seem like avoidance of Template Haskell is a viable strategy.

This PR builds up on work done #13, fixing issues in it and synchronising with the latest updates on the "master" branch of "ekg".

In case this PR still gets rejected, at least it can serve as a ground to build up on in #66. My fork can also be depended on thru Stack for those searching for an immediate solution.

Bump @tibbe Can we get some more discussion around a TH solution?

@23Skidoo is the current maintainer. My general feedback back when this was discussed is that using TH to embed files in a binary for the purpose of easy distribution is a stop gap measure. Systems need to be able to package and ship data files together with binaries. That said, I'm no longer the maintainer. :)
