[![Build Status of the package by GitHub actions](https://github.com/hapytex/string-like/actions/workflows/build-ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/hapytex/string-like/actions/workflows/build-ci.yml)

[![Hackage version badge](https://img.shields.io/hackage/v/string-like.svg)](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/string-like)

This package is based on the [**`Text.StringLike`** module](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/tagsoup/docs/Text-StringLike.html) of the [**`tagsoup`** package](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/tagsoup).

The package defines a typeclass that can be implemented to provide a uniform interface for `String`-like objects.

The typeclass itself has default implementations that convert the `StringLike`

item first to a lazy `Text`, then performs the operation, and converts results back to

its `StringLike` object. This is usually /not/ as efficient as an operation for

that specific type. Therefore it is advisable to implement the other functions as well.

One can however decide to only implement `fromText` and `toText`; or `toString`.
