"""
``ipipe`` provides classes to be used in an interactive Python session. Doing a
``from ipipe import *`` is the preferred way to do this. The name of all
objects imported this way starts with ``i`` to minimize collisions.

``ipipe`` supports "pipeline expressions", which is something resembling Unix
pipes. An example is::

    >>> ienv | isort("key.lower()")

This gives a listing of all environment variables sorted by name.


There are three types of objects in a pipeline expression:

* ``Table``s: These objects produce items. Examples are ``ils`` (listing the
  current directory, ``ienv`` (listing environment variables), ``ipwd`` (listing
  user accounts) and ``igrp`` (listing user groups). A ``Table`` must be the
  first object in a pipe expression.

* ``Pipe``s: These objects sit in the middle of a pipe expression. They
  transform the input in some way (e.g. filtering or sorting it). Examples are:
  ``ifilter`` (which filters the input pipe), ``isort`` (which sorts the input
  pipe) and ``ieval`` (which evaluates a function or expression for each object
  in the input pipe).

* ``Display``s: These objects can be put as the last object in a pipeline
  expression. There are responsible for displaying the result of the pipeline
  expression. If a pipeline expression doesn't end in a display object a default
  display objects will be used. One example is ``ibrowse`` which is a ``curses``
  based browser.


Adding support for pipeline expressions to your own objects can be done through
three extensions points (all of them optional):

* An object that will be displayed as a row by a ``Display`` object should
  implement the method ``__xattrs__(self, mode)`` method or register an
  implementation of the generic function ``xattrs``. For more info see ``xattrs``.

* When an object ``foo`` is displayed by a ``Display`` object, the generic
  function ``xrepr`` is used.

* Objects that can be iterated by ``Pipe``s must iterable. For special cases,
  where iteration for display is different than the normal iteration a special
  implementation can be registered with the generic function ``xiter``. This
  makes it possible to use dictionaries and modules in pipeline expressions,
  for example::

      >>> import sys
      >>> sys | ifilter("isinstance(value, int)") | idump
      key        |value
      api_version|      1012
      dllhandle  | 503316480
      hexversion |  33817328
      maxint     |2147483647
      maxunicode |     65535
      >>> sys.modules | ifilter("_.value is not None") | isort("_.key.lower()")
      ...

  Note: The expression strings passed to ``ifilter()`` and ``isort()`` can
  refer to the object to be filtered or sorted via the variable ``_`` and to any
  of the attributes of the object, i.e.::

      >>> sys.modules | ifilter("_.value is not None") | isort("_.key.lower()")

  does the same as::

      >>> sys.modules | ifilter("value is not None") | isort("key.lower()")

  In addition to expression strings, it's possible to pass callables (taking
  the object as an argument) to ``ifilter()``, ``isort()`` and ``ieval()``::

      >>> sys | ifilter(lambda _:isinstance(_.value, int)) \
      ...     | ieval(lambda _: (_.key, hex(_.value))) | idump
      0          |1
      api_version|0x3f4
      dllhandle  |0x1e000000
      hexversion |0x20402f0
      maxint     |0x7fffffff
      maxunicode |0xffff

    a ``(aligment, full)`` tuple instead of a ``(style, string)`` tuple.
    ``alignment``  can be -1 for left aligned, 0 for centered and 1 for right
    aligned (the default is left alignment). ``full`` is a boolean that specifies
    whether the complete output must be displayed or the ``Display`` object is

    ``"footer"``

        default mode. If an ``xrepr`` implementation recursively outputs objects,
