"""Module for interactive demos using IPython.

This module implements a few classes for running Python scripts interactively
in IPython for demonstrations.  With very simple markup (a few tags in
comments), you can control points where the script stops executing and returns
control to IPython.


Provided classes
----------------

The classes are (see their docstrings for further details):

 - Demo: pure python demos

 - IPythonDemo: demos with input to be processed by IPython as if it had been
   typed interactively (so magics work, as well as any other special syntax you
   may have added via input prefilters).

 - LineDemo: single-line version of the Demo class.  These demos are executed
   one line at a time, and require no markup.

 - IPythonLineDemo: IPython version of the LineDemo class (the demo is
   executed a line at a time, but processed via IPython).

 - ClearMixin: mixin to make Demo classes with less visual clutter.  It
   declares an empty marquee and a pre_cmd that clears the screen before each
   block (see Subclassing below).

 - ClearDemo, ClearIPDemo: mixin-enabled versions of the Demo and IPythonDemo
   classes.

Subclassing
-----------

The classes here all include a few methods meant to make customization by
subclassing more convenient.  Their docstrings below have some more details:

  - highlight(): format every block and optionally highlight comments and
    docstring content.

  - marquee(): generates a marquee to provide visible on-screen markers at each
    block start and end.

  - pre_cmd(): run right before the execution of each block.

  - post_cmd(): run right after the execution of each block.  If the block
    raises an exception, this is NOT called.


Operation
---------

The file is run in its own empty namespace (though you can pass it a string of
arguments as if in a command line environment, and it will see those as
sys.argv).  But at each stop, the global IPython namespace is updated with the
current internal demo namespace, so you can work interactively with the data
accumulated so far.

By default, each block of code is printed (with syntax highlighting) before
executing it and you have to confirm execution.  This is intended to show the
code to an audience first so you can discuss it, and only proceed with
execution once you agree.  There are a few tags which allow you to modify this
behavior.

The supported tags are:

# <demo> stop

  Defines block boundaries, the points where IPython stops execution of the
  file and returns to the interactive prompt.

  You can optionally mark the stop tag with extra dashes before and after the
  word 'stop', to help visually distinguish the blocks in a text editor:

  # <demo> --- stop ---


# <demo> silent

  Make a block execute silently (and hence automatically).  Typically used in
  cases where you have some boilerplate or initialization code which you need
  executed but do not want to be seen in the demo.

# <demo> auto

  Make a block execute automatically, but still being printed.  Useful for
  simple code which does not warrant discussion, since it avoids the extra
  manual confirmation.

# <demo> auto_all

  This tag can _only_ be in the first block, and if given it overrides the
  individual auto tags to make the whole demo fully automatic (no block asks
  for confirmation).  It can also be given at creation time (or the attribute
  set later) to override what's in the file.

While _any_ python file can be run as a Demo instance, if there are no stop
tags the whole file will run in a single block (no different that calling
first %pycat and then %run).  The minimal markup to make this useful is to
place a set of stop tags; the other tags are only there to let you fine-tune
the execution.

This is probably best explained with the simple example file below.  You can
copy this into a file named ex_demo.py, and try running it via::

    from IPython.lib.demo import Demo
    d = Demo('ex_demo.py')
    d()

Each time you call the demo object, it runs the next block.  The demo object
has a few useful methods for navigation, like again(), edit(), jump(), seek()
and back().  It can be reset for a new run via reset() or reloaded from disk
(in case you've edited the source) via reload().  See their docstrings below.

Note: To make this simpler to explore, a file called "demo-exercizer.py" has
been added to the "docs/examples/core" directory.  Just cd to this directory in
an IPython session, and type::

  %run demo-exercizer.py

and then follow the directions.

Example
-------

The following is a very simple example of a valid demo file.

::

    #################### EXAMPLE DEMO <ex_demo.py> ###############################
    '''A simple interactive demo to illustrate the use of IPython's Demo class.'''

    print 'Hello, welcome to an interactive IPython demo.'

    # The mark below defines a block boundary, which is a point where IPython will
    # stop execution and return to the interactive prompt. The dashes are actually
    # optional and used only as a visual aid to clearly separate blocks while
    # editing the demo code.
    # <demo> stop

    x = 1
    y = 2

    # <demo> stop

    # the mark below makes this block as silent
    # <demo> silent

    print 'This is a silent block, which gets executed but not printed.'

    # <demo> stop
    # <demo> auto
    print 'This is an automatic block.'
    print 'It is executed without asking for confirmation, but printed.'
    z = x+y

    print 'z=',x

    # <demo> stop
    # This is just another normal block.
    print 'z is now:', z

    print 'bye!'

        Inputs:

          - src is either a file, or file-like object, or a
              string that can be resolved to a filename.

        Optional inputs:

          - title: a string to use as the demo name.  Of most use when the demo
            you are making comes from an object that has no filename, or if you
            want an alternate denotation distinct from the filename.

          - arg_str(''): a string of arguments, internally converted to a list

            environment.

            applies to the whole demo.  It is an attribute of the object, and
            can be changed at runtime simply by reassigning it to a boolean
            value.

          - format_rst(False): a bool to enable comments and doc strings
