"""
Classses representing GLSL objects (functions, variables, etc) that may be
composed together to create complete shaders.
See the docstring of Function for details.

Details
-------

A complete GLSL program is composed of ShaderObjects, each of which may be used
inline as an expression, and some of which include a definition that must be
included on the final code. ShaderObjects keep track of a hierarchy of
dependencies so that all necessary code is included at compile time, and
changes made to any object may be propagated to the root of the hierarchy to
trigger a recompile.

class Function(ShaderObject):
    """Representation of a GLSL function

    Objects of this class can be used for re-using and composing GLSL
    snippets. Each Function consists of a GLSL snippet in the form of
    a function. The code may have template variables that start with
    the dollar sign. These stubs can be replaced with expressions using
    the index operation. Expressions can be:

    * plain text that is inserted verbatim in the code
    * a Function object or a call to a funcion
    * a Variable (or Varying) object
    * float, int, tuple are automatically turned into a uniform Variable
    * a VertexBuffer is automatically turned into an attribute Variable

    All functions have implicit "$pre" and "$post" placeholders that may be
    used to insert code at the beginning and end of the function.

    Examples
    --------
    This example shows the basic usage of the Function class::

        vert_code_template = Function('''
            void main() {
            gl_Position = $pos;
            gl_Position.x += $xoffset;
            gl_Position.y += $yoffset;
        }''')

        scale_transform = Function('''
        vec4 transform_scale(vec4 pos){
            return pos * $scale;
        }''')

        # If you get the function from a snippet collection, always
        # create new Function objects to ensure they are 'fresh'.
        vert_code = Function(vert_code_template)
        trans1 = Function(scale_transform)
        trans2 = Function(scale_transform)  # trans2 != trans1

        # Three ways to assign to template variables:
        #
        # 1) Assign verbatim code
        vert_code['xoffset'] = '(3.0 / 3.1415)'

        # 2) Assign a value (this creates a new uniform or attribute)
        vert_code['yoffset'] = 5.0

        # 3) Assign a function call expression
        pos_var = Variable('attribute vec4 a_position')
        vert_code['pos'] = trans1(trans2(pos_var))

        # Transforms also need their variables set
        trans1['scale'] = 0.5
        trans2['scale'] = (1.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.0)

        # You can actually change any code you want, but use this with care!
        vert_code.replace('gl_Position.y', 'gl_Position.z')

        # Finally, you can set special variables explicitly. This generates
        # a new statement at the end of the vert_code function.
        vert_code['gl_PointSize'] = '10.'


    If we use ``vert_code.compile()`` we get::

        attribute vec4 a_position;
        uniform float u_yoffset;
        uniform float u_scale_1;
        uniform vec4 u_scale_2;
        uniform float u_pointsize;

        vec4 transform_scale_1(vec4 pos){
            return pos * u_scale_1;
        }

        vec4 transform_scale_2(vec4 pos){
            return pos * u_scale_2;
        }

        void main() {
            gl_Position = transform_scale_1(transform_scale_2(a_position));
            gl_Position.x += (3.0 / 3.1415);
            gl_Position.z += u_yoffset;

            gl_PointSize = u_pointsize;
        }

    Note how the two scale function resulted in two different functions
    and two uniforms for the scale factors.

    Function calls
    --------------

    As can be seen above, the arguments with which a function is to be
    called must be specified by calling the Function object. The
    arguments can be any of the expressions mentioned earlier. If the
    signature is already specified in the template code, that function
    itself must be given.

        code = Function('''
            void main() {
                vec4 position = $pos;
                gl_Position = $scale(position)
            }
        ''')

        # Example of a function call with all possible three expressions
        vert_code['pos'] = func1('3.0', 'uniform float u_param', func2())

        # For scale, the sigfnature is already specified
        code['scale'] = scale_func  # Must not specify args

    Data for uniform and attribute variables
    ----------------------------------------
    To each variable a value can be associated. In fact, in most cases
    the Function class is smart enough to be able to create a Variable
    object if only the data is given.

        code['offset'] = Variable('uniform float offset')  # No data
        code['offset'] = Variable('uniform float offset', 3.0)  # With data
        code['offset'] = 3.0  # -> Uniform Variable
        position['position'] = VertexBuffer()  # -> attribute Variable

        # Updating variables
        code['offset'].value = 4.0
        position['position'].value.set_data(...)
    """

        super(Function, self).__init__()

    Parameters
    ----------
    name : str
        The name of the generated function
    funcs : list of Functions
        The list of Functions that will be called by the generated GLSL code.

    Examples
    --------
    This creates a function chain:

        >>> func1 = Function('void my_func_1() {}')
        >>> func2 = Function('void my_func_2() {}')
        >>> chain = FunctionChain('my_func_chain', [func1, func2])

        void my_func_1() {}
        void my_func_2() {}

        void my_func_chain() {
            my_func_1();

    The return type of the generated function is the same as the return type
    of the last function in the chain. Likewise, the arguments for the
    generated function are the same as the first function in the chain.

    If the return type is not 'void', then the return value of each function
    will be used to supply the first input argument of the next function in
    the chain. For example:

        vec3 my_func_1(vec3 input) {return input + vec3(1, 0, 0);}
        void my_func_2(vec3 input) {return input + vec3(0, 1, 0);}
