class HasParam(Plugin): 

    """ 

    Base class for plugins that have `Param` `NameSpace` attributes. 

    Subclasses of `HasParam` will on one or more attributes store `NameSpace` 

    instances containing zero or more `Param` instances.  These parameters might 

    describe, for example, the arguments and options a command takes, or the 

    attributes an LDAP entry can include, or whatever else the subclass sees 

    fit. 

    Although the interface a subclass must implement is very simple, it must 

    conform to a specific naming convention: if you want a namespace 

    ``SubClass.foo``, you must define a ``Subclass.takes_foo`` attribute and a 

    ``SubCLass.get_foo()`` method, and you may optionally define a 

    ``SubClass.check_foo()`` method. 

    A quick big-picture example 

    =========================== 

    Say you want the ``options`` instance attribute on your subclass to be a 

    `Param` `NameSpace`... then according to the enforced naming convention, 

    your subclass must define a ``takes_options`` attribute and a 

    ``get_options()`` method.  For example: 

    >>> from ipalib import Str, Int 

    >>> class Example(HasParam): 

    ... 

    ...     options = None  # This will be replaced with your namespace 

    ... 

    ...     takes_options = (Str('one'), Int('two')) 

    ... 

    ...     def get_options(self): 

    ...         return self._get_param_iterable('options') 

    ... 

    >>> eg = Example() 

    The ``Example.takes_options`` attribute is a ``tuple`` defining the 

    parameters you want your ``Example.options`` namespace to contain.  Your 

    ``Example.takes_options`` attribute will be accessed via 

    `HasParam._get_param_iterable()`, which, among other things, enforces the 

    ``('takes_' + name)`` naming convention.  For example: 

    >>> eg._get_param_iterable('options') 

    (Str('one'), Int('two')) 

    The ``Example.get_options()`` method simply returns 

    ``Example.takes_options`` by calling `HasParam._get_param_iterable()`.  Your 

    ``Example.get_options()`` method will be called via 

    `HasParam._filter_param_by_context()`, which, among other things, enforces 

    the ``('get_' + name)`` naming convention.  For example: 

    >>> list(eg._filter_param_by_context('options')) 

    [Str('one'), Int('two')] 

    At this point, the ``eg.options`` instance attribute is still ``None``: 

    >>> eg.options is None 

    True 

    `HasParam._create_param_namespace()` will create the ``eg.options`` 

    namespace from the parameters yielded by 

    `HasParam._filter_param_by_context()`.  For example: 

    >>> eg._create_param_namespace('options') 

    >>> eg.options 

    NameSpace(<2 members>, sort=False) 

    >>> list(eg.options)  # Like dict.__iter__() 

    ['one', 'two'] 

    Your subclass can optionally define a ``check_options()`` method to perform 

    sanity checks.  If it exists, the ``check_options()`` method is called by 

    `HasParam._create_param_namespace()` with a single value, the `NameSpace` 

    instance it created.  For example: 

    >>> class Example2(Example): 

    ... 

    ...     def check_options(self, namespace): 

    ...         for param in namespace():  # Like dict.itervalues() 

    ...             if param.name == 'three': 

    ...                 raise ValueError("I dislike the param 'three'") 

    ...         print '  ** Looks good! **'  # Note output below 

    ... 

    >>> eg = Example2() 

    >>> eg._create_param_namespace('options') 

      ** Looks good! ** 

    >>> eg.options 

    NameSpace(<2 members>, sort=False) 

    However, if we subclass again and add a `Param` named ``'three'``: 

    >>> class Example3(Example2): 

    ... 

    ...     takes_options = (Str('one'), Int('two'), Str('three')) 

    ... 

    >>> eg = Example3() 

    >>> eg._create_param_namespace('options') 

    Traceback (most recent call last): 

      ... 

    ValueError: I dislike the param 'three' 

    >>> eg.options is None  # eg.options was not set 

    True 

    The Devil and the details 

    ========================= 

    In the above example, ``takes_options`` is a ``tuple``, but it can also be 

    a param spec (see `create_param()`), or a callable that returns an iterable 

    containing one or more param spec.  Regardless of how ``takes_options`` is 

    defined, `HasParam._get_param_iterable()` will return a uniform iterable, 

    conveniently hiding the details. 

    The above example uses the simplest ``get_options()`` method possible, but 

    you could instead implement a ``get_options()`` method that would, for 

    example, produce (or withhold) certain parameters based on the whether 

    certain plugins are loaded. 

    Think of ``takes_options`` as declarative, a simple definition of *what* 

    parameters should be included in the namespace.  You should only implement 

    a ``takes_options()`` method if a `Param` must reference attributes on your 

    plugin instance (for example, for validation rules); you should not use a 

    ``takes_options()`` method to filter the parameters or add any other 

    procedural behaviour. 

    On the other hand, think of the ``get_options()`` method as imperative, a 

    procedure for *how* the parameters should be created and filtered.  In the 

    example above the *how* just returns the *what* unchanged, but arbitrary 

    logic can be implemented in the ``get_options()`` method.  For example, you 

    might filter certain parameters from ``takes_options`` base on some 

    criteria, or you might insert additional parameters provided by other 

    plugins. 

    The typical use case for using ``get_options()`` this way is to procedurally 

    generate the arguments and options for all the CRUD commands operating on a 

    specific LDAP object: the `Object` plugin defines the possible LDAP entry 

    attributes (as `Param`), and then the CRUD commands intelligently build 

    their ``args`` and ``options`` namespaces based on which attribute is the 

    primary key.  In this way new LDAP attributes (aka parameters) can be added 

    to the single point of definition (the `Object` plugin), and all the 

    corresponding CRUD commands pick up these new parameters without requiring 

    modification.  For an example of how this is done, see the 

    `ipalib.crud.Create` base class. 

    However, there is one type of filtering you should not implement in your 

    ``get_options()`` method, because it's already provided at a higher level: 

    you should not filter parameters based on the value of ``api.env.context`` 

    nor (preferably) on any values in ``api.env``. 

    `HasParam._filter_param_by_context()` already does this by calling 

    `Param.use_in_context()` for each parameter.  Although the base 

    `Param.use_in_context()` implementation makes a decision solely on the value 

    of ``api.env.context``, subclasses can override this with implementations 

    that consider arbitrary ``api.env`` values. 

    """ 

    # HasParam is the base class for most frontend plugins, that make it to users 

    # This flag indicates that the command should not be available in the cli 

    NO_CLI = False 

    def _get_param_iterable(self, name, verb='takes'): 

        """ 

        Return an iterable of params defined by the attribute named ``name``. 

        A sequence of params can be defined one of three ways: as a ``tuple``; 

        as a callable that returns an iterable; or as a param spec (a `Param` or 

        ``str`` instance).  This method returns a uniform iterable regardless of 

        how the param sequence was defined. 

        For example, when defined with a tuple: 

        >>> class ByTuple(HasParam): 

        ...     takes_args = (Param('foo'), Param('bar')) 

        ... 

        >>> by_tuple = ByTuple() 

        >>> list(by_tuple._get_param_iterable('args')) 

        [Param('foo'), Param('bar')] 

        Or you can define your param sequence with a callable when you need to 

        reference attributes on your plugin instance (for validation rules, 

        etc.).  For example: 

        >>> class ByCallable(HasParam): 

        ...     def takes_args(self): 

        ...         yield Param('foo', self.validate_foo) 

        ...         yield Param('bar', self.validate_bar) 

        ... 

        ...     def validate_foo(self, _, value, **kw): 

        ...         if value != 'Foo': 

        ...             return _("must be 'Foo'") 

        ... 

        ...     def validate_bar(self, _, value, **kw): 

        ...         if value != 'Bar': 

        ...             return _("must be 'Bar'") 

        ... 

        >>> by_callable = ByCallable() 

        >>> list(by_callable._get_param_iterable('args')) 

        [Param('foo', validate_foo), Param('bar', validate_bar)] 

        Lastly, as a convenience for when a param sequence contains a single 

        param, your defining attribute may a param spec (either a `Param` 

        or an ``str`` instance).  For example: 

        >>> class BySpec(HasParam): 

        ...     takes_args = Param('foo') 

        ...     takes_options = 'bar?' 

        ... 

        >>> by_spec = BySpec() 

        >>> list(by_spec._get_param_iterable('args')) 

        [Param('foo')] 

        >>> list(by_spec._get_param_iterable('options')) 

        ['bar?'] 

        For information on how an ``str`` param spec is interpreted, see the 

        `create_param()` and `parse_param_spec()` functions in the 

        `ipalib.parameters` module. 

        Also see `HasParam._filter_param_by_context()`.
