Example:

import Text.Hastache 
import Text.Hastache.Context
import qualified Data.Text as T
import qualified Data.Text.Lazy as TL
import qualified Data.Text.Lazy.IO as TL
import Data.Data 
import Data.Generics 
import Data.Char

data InternalData = InternalData {
    someField       :: String,
    anotherField    :: Int
    } deriving (Data, Typeable, Show)

data Example = Example {
    stringField             :: String,
    intField                :: Int,
    dataField               :: InternalData,
    simpleListField         :: [String],
    dataListField           :: [InternalData],
    stringFunc              :: String -> String,
    textFunc                :: T.Text -> T.Text,
    monadicStringFunc       :: String -> IO String,
    monadicTextFunc         :: T.Text -> IO T.Text
    } deriving (Data, Typeable)

example = hastacheStr defaultConfig (encodeStr template) 
    (mkGenericContext context)
    where
    template = unlines [
        "string: {{stringField}}",
        "int: {{intField}}",
        "data: {{dataField.someField}}, {{dataField.anotherField}}",
        "data: {{#dataField}}{{someField}}, {{anotherField}}{{/dataField}}",
        "simple list: {{#simpleListField}}{{.}} {{/simpleListField}}",
        "data list:",
        "{{#dataListField}}",
        " * {{someField}}, {{anotherField}}. top level var: {{intField}}",
        "{{/dataListField}}",
        "{{#stringFunc}}upper{{/stringFunc}}",
        "{{#textFunc}}reverse{{/textFunc}}",
        "{{#monadicStringFunc}}upper (monadic){{/monadicStringFunc}}",
        "{{#monadicTextFunc}}reverse (monadic){{/monadicTextFunc}}"]
    context = Example { stringField = "string value", intField = 1, 
        dataField = InternalData "val" 123, simpleListField = ["a","b","c"],
        dataListField = [InternalData "aaa" 1, InternalData "bbb" 2],
        stringFunc = map toUpper,
        textFunc = T.reverse,
        monadicStringFunc = return . map toUpper,
        monadicTextFunc = return . T.reverse }

main = example >>= TL.putStrLn

Result:

string: string value 
int: 1 
data: val, 123 
data: val, 123 
simple list: a b c  
data list: 
 * aaa, 1. top level var: 1 
 * bbb, 2. top level var: 1 
UPPER 
esrever 
UPPER (MONADIC)
)cidanom( esrever

Hastache also supports datatypes with multiple constructors:

data A = A { str :: String }
       | B { num :: Int }

{{#A}}
A : {{str}}
{{/A}}
{{#B}}
B : {{num}}
{{/B}}

Like mkGenericContext, but apply the first function to record field names when constructing the context. The second function is used to constructing values for context from datatypes that are nor supported as primitives in the library. The resulting value can be accessed using the .DatatypeName field:
