Data.Tree.NavigatableTree.Class

Description

Interface definition for navigatable trees. Navigatable trees need to have operations to move up, down, left and right. With these elementary operations, most of the XPath axises can be defined.

Synopsis

Documentation

class NavigatableTree t whereSource

The interface for navigatable trees

Methods

mvUp :: t a -> Maybe (t a)Source

move one step towards the root

mvDown :: t a -> Maybe (t a)Source

descend one step to the leftmost child

mvLeft :: t a -> Maybe (t a)Source

move to the left neighbour

mvRight :: t a -> Maybe (t a)Source

move to the right neighbour

class NavigatableTreeToTree nt t | t -> nt, nt -> t whereSource

Conversion between trees and navigatable trees,

There is only a single navigatable tree implementation for a given tree allowed (see the functional dependencies)

Methods

fromTree :: t a -> nt aSource

construct a navigatable tree

toTree :: nt a -> t aSource

remove navigation

class NavigatableTreeModify nt t | t -> nt, nt -> t whereSource

Edit operation on navigatable trees

There is only a single navigatable tree implementation for a given tree allowed (see the functional dependencies)

Methods

addTreeLeft :: t a -> nt a -> Maybe (nt a)Source

add an ordinary tree in front of the given navigatable tree

addTreeRight :: t a -> nt a -> Maybe (nt a)Source

add an ordinary tree behind of the given navigatable tree

dropTreeLeft :: nt a -> Maybe (nt a)Source

drop the direct left sibling tree of the given navigatable tree

dropTreeRight :: nt a -> Maybe (nt a)Source

drop the direct right sibling tree of the given navigatable tree

substThisTree :: t a -> nt a -> nt aSource

change the tree but remain the navigation
