"""CherryPy is a pythonic, object-oriented HTTP framework.


CherryPy consists of not one, but four separate API layers.

The APPLICATION LAYER is the simplest. CherryPy applications are written as
a tree of classes and methods, where each branch in the tree corresponds to
a branch in the URL path. Each method is a 'page handler', which receives
GET and POST params as keyword arguments, and returns or yields the (HTML)
body of the response. The special method name 'index' is used for paths
that end in a slash, and the special method name 'default' is used to
handle multiple paths via a single handler. This layer also includes:

 * the 'exposed' attribute (and cherrypy.expose)
 * cherrypy.quickstart()
 * _cp_config attributes
 * cherrypy.tools (including cherrypy.session)
 * cherrypy.url()

The ENVIRONMENT LAYER is used by developers at all levels. It provides
information about the current request and response, plus the application
and server environment, via a (default) set of top-level objects:

 * cherrypy.request
 * cherrypy.response
 * cherrypy.engine
 * cherrypy.server
 * cherrypy.tree
 * cherrypy.config
 * cherrypy.thread_data
 * cherrypy.log
 * cherrypy.HTTPError, NotFound, and HTTPRedirect
 * cherrypy.lib

The EXTENSION LAYER allows advanced users to construct and share their own
plugins. It consists of:

 * Hook API
 * Tool API
 * Toolbox API
 * Dispatch API
 * Config Namespace API

Finally, there is the CORE LAYER, which uses the core API's to construct
the default components which are available at higher layers. You can think
of the default components as the 'reference implementation' for CherryPy.
Megaframeworks (and advanced users) may replace the default components
with customized or extended components. The core API's are:

 * Application API
 * Engine API
 * Request API
 * Server API
 * WSGI API

These API's are described in the CherryPy specification:

class _AttributeDocstrings(type):
    """Metaclass for declaring docstrings for class attributes."""
    # The full docstring for this type is down in the __init__ method so
    # that it doesn't show up in help() for every consumer class.
    
    def __init__(cls, name, bases, dct):
        '''Metaclass for declaring docstrings for class attributes.
        
        Base Python doesn't provide any syntax for setting docstrings on
        'data attributes' (non-callables). This metaclass allows class
        definitions to follow the declaration of a data attribute with
        a docstring for that attribute; the attribute docstring will be
        popped from the class dict and folded into the class docstring.
        
        The naming convention for attribute docstrings is:
            <attrname> + "__doc".
        For example:
        
            class Thing(object):
                """A thing and its properties."""
                
                __metaclass__ = cherrypy._AttributeDocstrings
                
                height = 50
                height__doc = """The height of the Thing in inches."""
        
        In which case, help(Thing) starts like this:
        
            >>> help(mod.Thing)
            Help on class Thing in module pkg.mod:
            
            class Thing(__builtin__.object)
             |  A thing and its properties.
             |  
             |  height [= 50]:
             |      The height of the Thing in inches.
             | 
        
        The benefits of this approach over hand-edited class docstrings:
            1. Places the docstring nearer to the attribute declaration.
            2. Makes attribute docs more uniform ("name (default): doc").
            3. Reduces mismatches of attribute _names_ between
               the declaration and the documentation.
            4. Reduces mismatches of attribute default _values_ between
               the declaration and the documentation.
        
        The benefits of a metaclass approach over other approaches:
            1. Simpler ("less magic") than interface-based solutions.
            2. __metaclass__ can be specified at the module global level
               for classic classes.
        
        For various formatting reasons, you should write multiline docs
        with a leading newline and not a trailing one:
            
            response__doc = """
            The response object for the current thread. In the main thread,
            and any threads which are not HTTP requests, this is None."""
        
        The type of the attribute is intentionally not included, because
        that's not How Python Works. Quack.
        '''
        
        newdoc = [cls.__doc__ or ""]
