{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings, GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving #-}
-- An example of embedding a custom monad into
-- Scotty's transformer stack, using ReaderT to provide access
-- to a TVar containing global state.
--
-- Note: this example is somewhat simple, as our top level
-- is IO itself. The types of 'scottyT' and 'scottyAppT' are
-- general enough to allow a Scotty application to be
-- embedded into any MonadIO monad.

-- Why 'ReaderT (TVar AppState)' rather than 'StateT AppState'?
-- With a state transformer, 'runActionToIO' (below) would have
-- to provide the state to _every action_, and save the resulting
-- state, using an MVar. This means actions would be blocking,
-- effectively meaning only one request could be serviced at a time.
-- The 'ReaderT' solution means only actions that actually modify
-- the state need to block/retry.
--
-- Also note: your monad must be an instance of 'MonadIO' for
-- Scotty to use it.
