BaseModule

Common functionality for modules.

Support indentation. Children structure. Recursive rendering of content + children. Line separation independent of accidental sep().

TODO refactor, lessen the coupling by moving functionality to pure, free functions. TODO refactor, use a GC-less allocator like Array. TODO refactor, toString to support the range versions with a sink.

Functions

append void append(BaseElement e): Insert element at the back.
clearChildren void clearChildren(): Remove all children and clear line separation.
indent string indent(string s, int parent_level, int level): Render content with an indentation that takes the parent in consideration.
prepend void prepend(BaseElement e): Insert element at the front.
reset auto reset(): Clear the node of childrens.
sep void sep(int count = 1): Separate with at most count empty lines.
setIndentation void setIndentation(int ind): Sets the width of the indentation
suppressIndent void suppressIndent(int levels): Set indent suppression from this point and all children.
suppressThisIndent void suppressThisIndent(int levels): Suppress indentation by also affecting the level propagated from the parent.

Inherited Members

From BaseElement

renderIndent string renderIndent(int parent_level, int level): Query the module for an indented string representation.
renderRecursive string renderRecursive(int parent_level, int level): Query the module for a concatenated string of the childrens representation.
renderPostRecursive string renderPostRecursive(int parent_level, int level): Query the module for post recursive data.
