API Documentation

+ +

This document contains the API (Application Programming Interface) +documentation for this project. Documentation for the Python +objects defined by the project is divided into separate pages for each +package, module, and class. The API documentation also includes two +pages containing information about the project as a whole: a trees +page, and an index page.

+ +

Object Documentation

+ +

Each Package Documentation page contains: +

A description of the package.
A list of the modules and sub-packages contained by the + package.
A summary of the classes defined by the package.
A summary of the functions defined by the package.
A summary of the variables defined by the package.
A detailed description of each function defined by the + package.
A detailed description of each variable defined by the + package.

+ +

Each Module Documentation page contains: +

A description of the module.
A summary of the classes defined by the module.
A summary of the functions defined by the module.
A summary of the variables defined by the module.
A detailed description of each function defined by the + module.
A detailed description of each variable defined by the + module.

+ +

Each Class Documentation page contains: +

A class inheritance diagram.
A list of known subclasses.
A description of the class.
A summary of the methods defined by the class.
A summary of the instance variables defined by the class.
A summary of the class (static) variables defined by the + class.
A detailed description of each method defined by the + class.
A detailed description of each instance variable defined by the + class.
A detailed description of each class (static) variable defined + by the class.

+ +

Project Documentation

+ +

The Trees page contains the module and class hierarchies: +

The module hierarchy lists every package and module, with + modules grouped into packages. At the top level, and within each + package, modules and sub-packages are listed alphabetically.
The class hierarchy lists every class, grouped by base + class. If a class has more than one base class, then it will be + listed under each base class. At the top level, and under each base + class, classes are listed alphabetically.

+ +

The Index page contains indices of terms and + identifiers: +

The term index lists every term indexed by any object's + documentation. For each term, the index provides links to each + place where the term is indexed.
The identifier index lists the (short) name of every package, + module, class, method, function, variable, and parameter. For each + identifier, the index provides a short description, and a link to + its documentation.

+ +

The Table of Contents

+ +

The table of contents occupies the two frames on the left side of +the window. The upper-left frame displays the project +contents, and the lower-left frame displays the module +contents:

+ + + + + + + + + + +

+ Project Contents ...	+ API Documentation Frame +
+ Module Contents ... +

+ + +

The project contents frame contains a list of all packages +and modules that are defined by the project. Clicking on an entry +will display its contents in the module contents frame. Clicking on a +special entry, labeled "Everything," will display the contents of +the entire project.

+ +

The module contents frame contains a list of every +submodule, class, type, exception, function, and variable defined by a +module or package. Clicking on an entry will display its +documentation in the API documentation frame. Clicking on the name of +the module, at the top of the frame, will display the documentation +for the module itself.

+ +

The "frames" and "no frames" buttons below the top +navigation bar can be used to control whether the table of contents is +displayed or not.

+ +

The Navigation Bar

+ +

A navigation bar is located at the top and bottom of every page. +It indicates what type of page you are currently viewing, and allows +you to go to related pages. The following table describes the labels +on the navigation bar. Note that not some labels (such as +[Parent]) are not displayed on all pages.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

Label	Highlighted when...	Links to...
[Parent]	(never highlighted)	the parent of the current package
[Package]	viewing a package	the package containing the current object +
[Module]	viewing a module	the module containing the current object +
[Class]	viewing a class	the class containing the current object
[Trees]	viewing the trees page	the trees page
[Index]	viewing the index page	the index page
[Help]	viewing the help page	the help page

+ +

The "show private" and "hide private" buttons below +the top navigation bar can be used to control whether documentation +for private objects is displayed. Private objects are usually defined +as objects whose (short) names begin with a single underscore, but do +not end with an underscore. For example, "_x", +"__pprint", and "epydoc.epytext._tokenize" +are private objects; but "re.sub", +"__init__", and "type_" are not. However, +if a module defines the "__all__" variable, then its +contents are used to decide which objects are private.

+ +

A timestamp below the bottom navigation bar indicates when each +page was last updated.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
