.kind:: example_kind
..d: A kind specifying some example attributes and methods.
.c: This is a comment on the outer level. The comment extends to the
next line beginning with a dot.
We have left the scope of example_kind for now.
The superkinds below are used for argument specification and provide
values to the generated tests.
They are not (necessarily) included in the generated document.
.superkind:: int+
..eg: 1
.superkind:: string+
..eg: 'abc'
.superkind:: list+
..eg: []
.kind:: list_of_integers
..d: A kind with no formal properties. In this example, I am not
specifying anything about this kind. It is to be understood from its
name and context what it means. More specifications can be added later
as a system description evolves.
.and: example_kind
..c: Here continues the specification of example_kind.
..c: It can be split in several parts, the first one must
..c: be a .kind, and the others .and.
..c: This can be useful to specify recursive kinds.
..attr:: a_nokind
...d: An attribute named a_nokind, with unspecified kind.
..method:: m_noargs
...d: A method that takes no arguments, and returns an unspecified kind.
..method:: m_returns
...d: A method which returns objects of kind
....ref: .myfile.example_kind
....t: again.
...returns: example_kind
..method:: m_one
...d: A method with one argument.
...arg: a: int+
....d: A positional argument of kind
.....ref: .myfile.int+
.....t:. The
.....ref: .mykind.int+
.....t: kind is a so called
.....em: superkind
.....t: because an API with this specification,
is expected to accept values according to the specification of
.....ref: .mykind.int+
.....t:, but it is allowed to accept other kinds of arguments as well. A
.....em: compatible
.....t: new specification could add these alternative kinds of
arguments as allowed arguments, but it would still have to accept the
.....ref: .mykind.int+
.....t: kind of argument.
...dwh: Note
The + in the int+ name is a convention to indicate that it is a
....em: superkind
....t:.
...dwh: Note
The name of the argument, a, does
....em: not
....t: mean that it can be specified as a keyword argument with that
name. It is only when keyword arguments are specifically specified
that they are actually keyword arguments.
..method:: m_opt
...d: A method with optional arguments. Square brackets without a
preceding modifier means that the contents is optional. So in this
case, either no argument must be given, or if one argument is given it
is a, or if two arguments are given, it is a and b in that order.
...optionals
....arg: a: int+
....arg: b: string+
..method:: m_alt
...d: A method with alternative arguments.
An
....sup:
.....strong: alt:
....t: before the bracket is a modifier that means that there is a
choice of alternatives. The argument is required and should be either
an int+, string+ or list+.
...alt
....arg: a: int+
.....d: Description for an int argument.
....arg: a: string+
.....d: Description for a string argument.
....arg: a: list+
.....d: Description for a list argument.
..method:: m_repeat
...d: A method with repeated arguments.
A modifier
....sup:
.....strong: m..n:
....t: before the argument, where m and n are integers, means an
argument that may be repeated at least m times and at most n
times. Instead of n, * may be specified and means any number of times.
...repeat: 0..*
....arg: a: int+
.....d: This argument may be repeated any number of times as long as
it is of of kind int+.
...repeat: 2..4
....arg: b: string+
.....d: The final arguments must be of kind string+ and be repeated 2,
3 or 4 times.
..method:: m_draw_keywords
...d: A method with optional keyword arguments.
...d: The modifier
....sup
.....strong: draw:
....t: means to 'draw' any combination of arguments from within the
brackets. Keyword arguments by them self would not be optional, but
would be mandatory, in the current specification system.
...draw
....key arg: a : int+
....key arg: b : int+
....key arg: c : string+
..method:: range
...d: A method combining different argument specifications.
...d: The modifier
....sup
.....strong: seq
....t: means arguments that are specified by the
....em: sequence
....t: of arguments within the following brackets.
....p: Create a range of numbers.
...alt
....arg: stop: int+
....seq
.....arg: start: int+
......d: The first value of the range.
......default: 0
Starts with first value.
.....arg: stop: int+
......d: The value just beyond the last value of the range.
.....optionals
......arg: step: int+
.......d: Positive or negative, steps values up or down.
.......default: 1
...returns: list_of_integers
....d: a list containing an arithmetic progression of integers.
