Persistent selectList causing error of "Couldn't match type ‘BaseBackend backend0’ with ‘SqlBackend’"

Viewed 926

I'm running into the below compile error:

• Couldn't match type ‘BaseBackend backend0’ with ‘SqlBackend’
    arising from a use of ‘runSqlite’
  The type variable ‘backend0’ is ambiguous
• In the expression: runSqlite ":memory:"
  In the expression:
    runSqlite ":memory:"
    $ do { records <- selectList [UserUsername ==. "abc"] [LimitTo 10];
           liftIO $ print (records :: [Entity User]) }
  In an equation for ‘selectAll’:
      selectAll
        = runSqlite ":memory:"
          $ do { records <- selectList [UserUsername ==. "abc"] [LimitTo 10];
                 liftIO $ print (records :: [Entity User]) }

Code:

selectAll :: IO ()
selectAll = runSqlite ":memory:" $ do
  records <- selectList [UserUsername ==. "abc"] [LimitTo 10]
  liftIO $ print (records :: [Entity User])

Having a look at the type signature of runSqlite:

runSqlite    
:: (MonadBaseControl IO m, MonadIO m, IsSqlBackend backend)  
=> Text 
-> ReaderT backend (NoLoggingT (ResourceT m)) a 
-> m a

I would assume I need to specify an explicit type for runSqlite, though I'm not too sure what I set for backend in ReaderT backend (NoLoggingT (ResourceT m)) a?
