"""
A Docutils_ interpreted text role for cross-API reference support.

This module allows a Docutils_ document to refer to elements defined in
external API documentation. It is possible to refer to many external API
from the same document.

Each API documentation is assigned a new interpreted text role: using such
interpreted text, an user can specify an object name inside an API
documentation. The system will convert such text into an url and generate a
reference to it. For example, if the API ``db`` is defined, being a database
package, then a certain method may be referred as::

    :db:`Connection.cursor()`

To define a new API, an *index file* must be provided. This file contains
a mapping from the object name to the URL part required to resolve such object.

Index file
----------

Each line in the the index file describes an object.

Each line contains the fully qualified name of the object and the URL at which
the documentation is located. The fields are separated by a ``<tab>``
character.

The URL's in the file are relative from the documentation root: the system can
be configured to add a prefix in front of each returned URL.

Allowed names
-------------

When a name is used in an API text role, it is split over any *separator*.
The separators defined are '``.``', '``::``', '``->``'. All the text from the
first noise char (neither a separator nor alphanumeric or '``_``') is
discarded. The same algorithm is applied when the index file is read.

First the sequence of name parts is looked for in the provided index file.
If no matching name is found, a partial match against the trailing part of the
names in the index is performed. If no object is found, or if the trailing part
of the name may refer to many objects, a warning is issued and no reference
is created.

Configuration
-------------

This module provides the class `ApiLinkReader` a replacement for the Docutils
standalone reader. Such reader specifies the settings required for the
API canonical roles configuration. The same command line options are exposed by
Epydoc.

The script ``apirst2html.py`` is a frontend for the `ApiLinkReader` reader.

API Linking Options::

    --external-api=NAME
                        Define a new API document.  A new interpreted text
                        role NAME will be added.
    --external-api-file=NAME:FILENAME
                        Use records in FILENAME to resolve objects in the API
                        named NAME.
    --external-api-root=NAME:STRING
                        Use STRING as prefix for the URL generated from the
                        API NAME.
