Extract `Hashable` module to separate library

[paluh]

It seems that Data.Hashable can be useful on its own and that currently PureScript ecosystem lacks library with similar scope.
Do you think that this module is really generic or I'm missing something?
What do you think about publishing it as a separate library?

[fehrenbach]

Yes, it could be in a separate library.

The reason it isn't, is that I really want Hashable to be in the prelude and add compiler support for deriving instances, just like Ord.

I suppose now is as good a time as any to start that discussion.

@fehrenbach thanks for quick response!

I think that separating library could be a good step even before this compiler integration related discussion...

For sure it could be a good step from my (read "user") perspective ;-)

[fehrenbach]

I'll consider it if the prelude discussion/decision drags on for too long.

In the meantime, is there a reason to not just depend on this library?

[paluh]

@fehrenbach Yeah, I'm depending on the whole library right now and it's not a problem at all for me 😉
I've opened this issue because I thought that this module just would be a good addition to the PS ecosystem...
Should I close the issue?
