class IInterface(ISpecification, IElement):
"""Interface objects
Interface objects describe the behavior of an object by containing
useful information about the object. This information includes:
o Prose documentation about the object. In Python terms, this
is called the "doc string" of the interface. In this element,
you describe how the object works in prose language and any
other useful information about the object.
o Descriptions of attributes. Attribute descriptions include
the name of the attribute and prose documentation describing
the attributes usage.
o Descriptions of methods. Method descriptions can include:
- Prose "doc string" documentation about the method and its
usage.
- A description of the methods arguments; how many arguments
are expected, optional arguments and their default values,
the position or arguments in the signature, whether the
method accepts arbitrary arguments and whether the method
accepts arbitrary keyword arguments.
o Optional tagged data. Interface objects (and their attributes and
methods) can have optional, application specific tagged data
associated with them. Examples uses for this are examples,
security assertions, pre/post conditions, and other possible
information you may want to associate with an Interface or its
attributes.
Not all of this information is mandatory. For example, you may
only want the methods of your interface to have prose
documentation and not describe the arguments of the method in
exact detail. Interface objects are flexible and let you give or
take any of these components.
Interfaces are created with the Python class statement using
either Interface.Interface or another interface, as in::
from zope.interface import Interface
class IMyInterface(Interface):
'''Interface documentation'''
def meth(arg1, arg2):
'''Documentation for meth'''
# Note that there is no self argument
class IMySubInterface(IMyInterface):
'''Interface documentation'''
def meth2():
'''Documentation for meth2'''
You use interfaces in two ways:
o You assert that your object implement the interfaces.
There are several ways that you can assert that an object
implements an interface:
1. Call zope.interface.implements in your class definition.
2. Call zope.interfaces.directlyProvides on your object.
3. Call 'zope.interface.classImplements' to assert that instances
of a class implement an interface.
For example::
from zope.interface import classImplements
classImplements(some_class, some_interface)
This approach is useful when it is not an option to modify
the class source. Note that this doesn't affect what the
class itself implements, but only what its instances
implement.
o You query interface meta-data. See the IInterface methods and
attributes for details.
