#                     fix `Code2Text.header`.
# 0.2.7   2007-02-19  Simplify `Code2Text.header`,
#                     new `iter_strip` method replacing a lot of ``if``-s.

_version = "0.7.9"

__docformat__ = 'restructuredtext'


# Introduction
# ------------
#
# PyLit is a bidirectional converter between two formats of a computer
# program source:
#
# * a (reStructured) text document with program code embedded in
#   *code blocks*, and
# * a compilable (or executable) code source with *documentation*
#   embedded in comment blocks
#
#
# Requirements
# ------------
#
# ::

import os, sys
import re, optparse


# DefaultDict
# ~~~~~~~~~~~
# As `collections.defaultdict` is only introduced in Python 2.5, we
# define a simplified version of the dictionary with default from
# http://code.activestate.com/recipes/389639/
# ::

class DefaultDict(dict):
    """Minimalistic Dictionary with default value."""
    def __init__(self, default=None, *args, **kwargs):
        self.update(dict(*args, **kwargs))
        self.default = default

    def __getitem__(self, key):
        return self.get(key, self.default)


# Defaults
# ========
#
# The `defaults` object provides a central repository for default
# values and their customisation. ::

defaults = optparse.Values()

# It is used for
#
# * the initialisation of data arguments in TextCodeConverter_ and
#   PylitOptions_
#
# * completion of command line options in `PylitOptions.complete_values`_.
#
# This allows the easy creation of back-ends that customise the
# defaults and then call `main`_ e.g.:
#
# >>> import pylit
# >>> pylit.defaults.comment_string = "## "
# >>> pylit.defaults.codeindent = 4
# >>> pylit.main()
#
# The following default values are defined in pylit.py:
#
# languages
# ---------
#
# Mapping of code file extensions to code language::

defaults.languages  = DefaultDict("python", # fallback language
                                  {".c":   "c",
                                   ".cc":  "c++",
                                   ".css": "css",
                                   ".py":  "python",
                                   ".sh":  "shell",
                                   ".sl":  "slang",
                                   ".sty": "latex",
                                   ".tex": "latex"
                                  })

# Will be overridden by the ``--language`` command line option.
#
# The first argument is the fallback language, used if there is no
# matching extension (e.g. if pylit is used as filter) and no
# ``--language`` is specified. It can be changed programmatically by
# assignment to the ``.default`` attribute, e.g.
#
# >>> defaults.languages.default='c++'
#
#
# .. _text_extension:
#
# text_extensions
# ---------------
#
# List of known extensions of (reStructured) text files. The first
# extension in this list is used by the `_get_outfile_name`_ method to
# generate a text output filename::

defaults.text_extensions = [".txt", ".rst"]


# comment_strings
# ---------------
#
# Comment strings for known languages. Used in Code2Text_ to recognise
# text blocks and in Text2Code_ to format text blocks as comments.
# Defaults to ``'# '``.
#
# **Comment strings include trailing whitespace.** ::

defaults.comment_strings = DefaultDict('# ',
                                       {"css":    '// ',
                                        "c":      '// ',
                                        "c++":    '// ',
                                        "latex":  '% ',
                                        "python": '# ',
                                        "shell":  '# ',
                                        "slang":  '% '
                                       })


# header_string
# -------------
#
# Marker string for a header code block in the text source. No trailing
# whitespace needed as indented code follows.
# Must be a valid rst directive that accepts code on the same line, e.g.
# ``'..admonition::'``.
#
# Default is a comment marker::

defaults.header_string = '..'


# .. _code_block_marker:
#
# code_block_markers
# ------------------
#
# Markup at the end of a documentation block.
# Default is Docutils' marker for a `literal block`_::

defaults.code_block_markers = DefaultDict('::')

# The `code_block_marker` string is `inserted into a regular expression`_.
# Language-specific markers can be defined programmatically, e.g. in a
# wrapper script.
#
# In a document where code examples are only one of several uses of
# literal blocks, it is more appropriate to single out the source code
# ,e.g. with the double colon at a separate line ("expanded form")
#
#   ``defaults.code_block_marker.default = ':: *'``
#
# or a dedicated ``.. code-block::`` directive [#]_
#
#   ``defaults.code_block_marker['c++'] = '.. code-block:: *c++'``
#
# The latter form also allows code in different languages kept together
# in one literate source file.
#
# .. [#] The ``.. code-block::`` directive is not (yet) supported by
#    standard Docutils.  It is provided by several add-ons, including
#    the `code-block directive`_ project in the Docutils Sandbox and
#    Sphinx_.
#
#
# strip
# -----
#
# Export to the output format stripping documentation or code blocks::

defaults.strip = False

# strip_marker
# ------------
#
# Strip literal marker from the end of documentation blocks when
# converting  to code format. Makes the code more concise but looses the
# synchronisation of line numbers in text and code formats. Can also be used
# (together with the auto-completion of the code-text conversion) to change
# the `code_block_marker`::

defaults.strip_marker = False

# add_missing_marker
# ------------------
#
# When converting from code format to text format, add a `code_block_marker`
# at the end of documentation blocks if it is missing::

defaults.add_missing_marker = True

# Keep this at ``True``, if you want to re-convert to code format later!
#
#
# .. _defaults.preprocessors:
#
# preprocessors
# -------------
#
# Preprocess the data with language-specific filters_
# Set below in Filters_::

defaults.preprocessors = {}

# .. _defaults.postprocessors:
#
# postprocessors
# --------------
#
# Postprocess the data with language-specific filters_::

defaults.postprocessors = {}

# .. _defaults.codeindent:
#
# codeindent
# ----------
#
# Number of spaces to indent code blocks in `Code2Text.code_block_handler`_::

defaults.codeindent =  2

# In `Text2Code.code_block_handler`_, the codeindent is determined by the
# first recognised code line (header or first indented literal block
# of the text source).
#
# overwrite
# ---------
#
# What to do if the outfile already exists? (ignored if `outfile` == '-')::

defaults.overwrite = 'update'

# Recognised values:
#
#  :'yes':    overwrite eventually existing `outfile`,
#  :'update': fail if the `outfile` is newer than `infile`,
#  :'no':     fail if `outfile` exists.
#
#
# Extensions
# ==========
#
# Try to import optional extensions::

try:
    import pylit_elisp
except ImportError:
    pass


# Converter Classes
# =================
#
# The converter classes implement a simple state machine to separate and
# transform documentation and code blocks. For this task, only a very limited
# parsing is needed. PyLit's parser assumes:
#
# * `indented literal blocks`_ in a text source are code blocks.
#
# * comment blocks in a code source where every line starts with a matching
#   comment string are documentation blocks.

# Code blocks are unindented, documentation is commented (or filtered, if the
# ``strip`` option is True).

#        literal blocks`_, `parsed-literal blocks`_, and `doctest blocks`_ are

#           26

#        Mark that there is no double colon before the doctest block in the

# Sometimes code needs to remain on the first line(s) of the document to be

# shell how to process an executable file::

#!/usr/bin/env python

# In Python, the special comment to indicate the encoding, e.g.
# ``# -*- coding: iso-8859-1 -*-``, must occur before any other comment
# or code too.
#
# If we want to keep the line numbers in sync for text and code source, the
# reStructured Text markup for these header lines must start at the same line
# as the first header line. Therefore, header lines could not be marked as
# literal block (this would require the ``::`` and an empty line above the
# code_block).
#
# OTOH, a comment may start at the same line as the comment marker and it
# includes subsequent indented lines. Comments are visible in the reStructured
# Text source but hidden in the pretty-printed output.
#
# With a header converted to comment in the text source, everything before
# the first documentation block (i.e. before the first paragraph using the
# matching comment string) will be hidden away (in HTML or PDF output).
#
# This seems a good compromise, the advantages
#
# * line numbers are kept
# * the "normal" code_block conversion rules (indent/unindent by `codeindent` apply
# * greater flexibility: you can hide a repeating header in a project
#   consisting of many source files.
#
# set off the disadvantages
#
# - it may come as surprise if a part of the file is not "printed",
# - one more syntax element to learn for rst newbies to start with pylit,
#   (however, starting from the code source, this will be auto-generated)
#
# In the case that there is no matching comment at all, the complete code
# source will become a comment -- however, in this case it is not very likely
# the source is a literate document anyway.

# If needed for the documentation, it is possible to quote the header in (or
# after) the first documentation block, e.g. as `parsed literal`.

# Open questions
# ==============
#
# Open questions and ideas for further development
#
# Clean code
# ----------
#
# * can we gain from using "shutils" over "os.path" and "os"?
# * use pylint or pyChecker to enforce a consistent style?
#
# Options
# -------
#
# * Use templates for the "intelligent guesses" (with Python syntax for string
#   replacement with dicts: ``"hello %(what)s" % {'what': 'world'}``)
#
# * Is it sensible to offer the `header_string` option also as command line
#   option?
#
# treatment of blank lines
# ------------------------
#
# Alternatives: Keep blank lines blank
#
# - "never" (current setting) -> "visually merges" all documentation
#    if there is no interjacent code
#
# - "always" -> disrupts documentation blocks,
#
# - "if empty" (no whitespace). Comment if there is whitespace.
#
#   This would allow non-obstructing markup but unfortunately this is (in
#   most editors) also non-visible markup.
#
# + "if double" (if there is more than one consecutive blank line)
#
#   With this handling, the "visual gap" remains in both, text and code
#   source.
#
#
# Parsing Problems
# ----------------
#
# * Ignore "matching comments" in literal strings?
#
#   Too complicated: Would need a specific detection algorithm for every
#   language that supports multi-line literal strings (C++, PHP, Python)
#
# * Warn if a comment in code will become documentation after round-trip?
#
#
# docstrings in code blocks
# -------------------------
#
# * How to handle docstrings in code blocks? (it would be nice to convert them
#   to rst-text if ``__docformat__ == restructuredtext``)
#
# TODO: Ask at Docutils users|developers
#
# Plug-ins
# --------
#
# Specify a path for user additions and plug-ins. This would require to
# convert Pylit from a pure module to a package...
#
#   6.4.3 Packages in Multiple Directories
#
#   Packages support one more special attribute, __path__. This is initialized
#   to be a list containing the name of the directory holding the package's
#   __init__.py before the code in that file is executed. This
#   variable can be modified; doing so affects future searches for modules and
#   subpackages contained in the package.
#
#   While this feature is not often needed, it can be used to extend the set
#   of modules found in a package.
