The @control decorator

yex.decorator.control(**kwargs) #

Decorator to turn a function into a Control class.

When the result is activated (by calling it), we will call the wrapped function. The name and docstring of the result will be the same as those of the function.

The result can be made queryable using its "on_query" method; see the docstring for that method for details.

The args for the wrapped function act differently based on their names and their annotations. Control.get_arguments_from_parser() has the canonical explanation of this, but here's an overview. The parameters are evaluated in order from left to right.

If there's no type annotation, the name of the parameter could be: - parser: this receives the Parser. - doc: this receives the Document. - optional_equals: this consumes "=" if it's the next symbol, and receives it; if it's not the next symbol, it receives the empty string. - reading_all_args, querying_all_args, executing_all_args: if the next symbol begins a group, these receive the concatenation of the string values of all symbols in that group. Otherwise, they receive the string value of the next symbol. The parser are parsed at the level named in the parameter name.

Any other name raises WeirdControlNameError.

However, if the parameter is annotated with a type, the behaviour depends on what that type is: - Value (including Number and Dimen), Filename, Gismo: the relevant symbol is constructed from the input stream. - int: as if Number had been specified, except that the result is immediately cast to an int. - Token (or any subclass), Control (or any subclass): receives the next symbol, which must belong to the class specified. - Location: receives the current location. Nothing is consumed.

Otherwise, we raise WeirdControlNameError.

All args for the decorator itself are set directly on the result. Some of them also have other effects. - vertical, horizontal, math: True if the control can be run in this mode; False if it can't; otherwise, running this control in the given mode will cause a mode switch, and this is a str naming the mode to switch to - conditional (bool): if True, this control affects control flow - expandable (bool): if True, the result will descend from Expandable; if False, which is the default, it will descend from Unexpandable. - push_result (bool): if True, which is the default, the result of the wrapped function will be pushed back, and the call to the control will return None; if False, no push will be made and the call will return whatever the wrapped function returned. - even_if_not_expanding (bool): if True, this control will be run even if we're currently not running controls in general-- for example, straight after we've seen "\iffalse". Use with care.

    - expandable (bool): if True, the result will descend from Expandable;

            Unexpandable.
    - push_result (bool): if True, which is the default, the result
            of the wrapped function will be pushed back, and the call
            to the control will return None; if False, no push will
            be made and the call will return whatever the wrapped function
            returned.
