Fun fact: you can write a Daml template in one line (though this is not very useful)

I was playing around a bit with the Daml template syntax.

Using Haskell’s alternative syntax for indentation, new line and do blocks, you can transform a Daml template like this.

The second version is written in one line. This is just interesting, because it makes your code totally unreadable.

oneliner.hs

module Token where

template Token
  with
    issuer : Party
    owner : Party
    amount : Int
    createdAt : Time
  where
    signatory issuer

Hi @gyorgybalazsi that is quite interesting.

While a One-Liner is an odd beast, if you wanted to write a Bash or Python-based Generator, that inputted the various variable values, into that string and made a valid Template, that’d be handy.

Nicely done
