Templates
---------
A lot of the power from AutoAPI comes from templates.
We are basically building a mapping from Code to Docs,
and templates let you highly customize the display of said docs.
Structure
~~~~~~~~~
Every type of data structure gets it's own template.
It uses the form :samp:`{language}/{type}.rst` to find the template to render.
The full search path is:
* :samp:`{language}/{type}.rst`
* :samp:`{language}/unknown.rst`
* :samp:`base/unknown.rst`
So for a .Net Class, this would resolve to:
* :samp:`{dotnet}/{class}.rst`
* :samp:`{dotnet}/unknown.rst`
* :samp:`base/unknown.rst`
We provide :samp:`base/member.rst` as an incredibly basic output of every object::
.. {language}:{type}:: {name}
Context
~~~~~~~
Every template will be given a set context. It will contain:
* `obj`: A Python object derived from
This object has a number of standard attributes you can reliably access:
* **id** - A unique identifier
* **type** - The objects type, lowercase
* **name** - A user displayable name
* **item_map** - A dict with keys containing the types this object has as children, and values of those objects.
