packcheck-0.4.1: Universal build and CI testing for Haskell packages

This package contains a universal CI/build script packcheck.sh and config files designed such that you can just copy over .travis.yml, appveyor.yml or .circleci/config.yml to your package repo and your package is CI ready in a jiffy. For local testing, copy packcheck.sh to your local machine, put it in your PATH, and run it from your package directory:

$ packcheck.sh cabal-new
$ packcheck.sh cabal
$ packcheck.sh stack

You can try it on this package itself. packcheck.sh uniformly, consistently builds and comprehensively sanity tests a Haskell package across build tools (stack/cabal) and across all platforms (Linux/MacOS/Windows). You do not need to be familiar with any of the build tools to use it.

This is also a minimal yet complete model package (with tests, benchmarks, CI already working) that can be used as a starting point to develop a new package. Beginners can use it to learn about haskell package metadata structure, benchmarks, tests, CI configs etc.

See the README for comprehensive documentation.
