Problem with Persistent.runSqlPool and Servant Handel
1 project | /r/haskell | 14 Feb 2023

I understand that the "new" version of Persistent requires Servant Handler to be MonadUnliftIO which is not the case. I also understand that I am suppose to use acquireSqlConn somehowe (following this this), but I can't figure it out. Any ideas ?
Was simplified subsumption worth it for industry Haskell programmers?

I don't think there's any malicious intent. It seems pretty clear that the motivation here is to simplify the type checker considerably, which is a really good reason to do something. Heck, I've got an open issue for deleting a feature in persistent which (according to the lack of comments on the issue) only ever used by persistent's own test suite.

Ha, I spotted a possible resource leak here. If stmtFinalize fail, then the connection won't be closed.

Hmm, you are right, the bracket I pointed to is unrelated. I guess the fix is in catchAny, which doesn't catch ThreadKilled. So not it's not rolling the transaction back in case of asynchronous exceptions. My point is that it probably should not rollback even on synchronous exception. BTW the issue is well know, see for example here
