Syntax Highlighting and Indentation for Haskell and Cabal
I was unhappy with the Haskell scripts that are shipped with vim, therefore I decided to make my own based on idris-vim.
I hope you find this useful.
Features
- Covers a broader spectrum of keywords
- Highlighting for new features like type families, pattern synonyms, arrow syntax, recursive do, role annotations, QuasiQuotation
- More contextual highlighting (e.g. highlight 'as' or 'family' only in appropriate places)
- Smarter indentation
- Better Cabal support
Installation
I recommend using Pathogen for installation. Simply clone
this repo into your ~/.vim/bundle
directory and you are ready to go.
cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone https://github.com/neovimhaskell/haskell-vim.git
Be sure that the following lines are in your
.vimrc
syntax on
filetype plugin indent on
Manual Installation
Copy content into your ~/.vim
directory.
Configuration
Features
To enable the features you would like to use, just add the according line to your
.vimrc
.
let g:haskell_enable_quantification = 1 " to enable highlighting of `forall`
let g:haskell_enable_recursivedo = 1 " to enable highlighting of `mdo` and `rec`
let g:haskell_enable_arrowsyntax = 1 " to enable highlighting of `proc`
let g:haskell_enable_pattern_synonyms = 1 " to enable highlighting of `pattern`
let g:haskell_enable_typeroles = 1 " to enable highlighting of type roles
let g:haskell_enable_static_pointers = 1 " to enable highlighting of `static`
let g:haskell_backpack = 1 " to enable highlighting of backpack keywords
Highlighting
haskell-vim
has an opinionated highlighting. If you do not like that you can switch to
a more traditional mode by setting g:haskell_classic_highlighting
to 1
.
Disabling Template Haskell and Quasiquoting syntax is possible by setting
g:haskell_disable_TH
to 1
.
Indentation
To configure indentation in haskell-vim
you can use the following variables to change indentation depth, just add the according line to your .vimrc
.
If you dislike how indentation works you can disable it by setting g:haskell_indent_disable
to
1
.
Additionally you can use the vim-hindent plugin to achieve automatic indentation using hindent.

haskell-vim
also supports an alterative style for case
indentation.

Cabal
