""" Provide Python descriptors for delegating to Bokeh properties.

The Python `descriptor protocol`_ allows fine-grained control over all
attribute access on instances ("You control the dot"). Bokeh uses the
descriptor protocol to provide easy-to-use, declarative, type-based

class properties that can automatically validate and serialize their
values, as well as help provide sophisticated documentation.

A Bokeh property really consist of two parts: a familiar "property"
portion, such as ``Int``, ``String``, etc., as well as an associated
Python descriptor that delegates attribute access to the property instance.

For example, a very simplified definition of a range-like object might
be:

.. code-block:: python

    from bokeh.model import Model
    from bokeh.core.properties import Float

    class Range(Model):
        start = Float(help="start point")
        end   = Float(help="end point")

When this class is created, the ``MetaHasProps`` metaclass wires up both
the ``start`` and ``end`` attributes to a ``Float`` property. Then, when
a user accesses those attributes, the descriptor delegates all get and
set operations to the ``Float`` property.

.. code-block:: python

    rng = Range()

    # The descriptor __set__ method delegates to Float, which can validate
    # the value 10.3 as a valid floating point value
    rng.start = 10.3

    # But can raise a validation exception if an attempt to set to a list
    # is made
    rng.end = [1,2,3]   # ValueError !

More sophisticated properties such as ``DataSpec`` and its subclasses can
exert control over how values are serialized. Consider this example with
the ``Circle`` glyph and its ``x`` attribute that is a ``NumberSpec``:

.. code-block:: python

    from bokeh.models import Circle

    c = Circle()

    c.x = 10      # serializes to {'value': 10}

    c.x = 'foo'   # serializes to {'field': 'foo'}

There are many other examples like this throughout Bokeh. In this way users
may operate simply and naturally, and not be concerned with the low-level
details around validation, serialization, and documentation.

This module provides the class ``PropertyDescriptor`` and various subclasses
that can be used to attach Bokeh properties to Bokeh models.

.. note::
    These classes form part of the very low-level machinery that implements
    the Bokeh model and property system. It is unlikely that any of these
    classes or their methods will be applicable to any standard usage or to
    anyone who is not directly developing on Bokeh's own infrastructure.
