-Sky Module System
-=================
-
-This document describes the Sky module system.
-
-Overview
---------
-
-The Sky module system is based on the ``import`` element. In its
-most basic form, you import a module as follows:
-
-```html
-<import src="path/to/module.sky" />
-```
-
-As these ``import`` elements are inserted into a module's element
-tree, the module's list of outstanding dependencies grows. When an
-imported module completes, it is removed from the importing module's
-list of outstanding dependencies.
-
-Before compiling script or inserting an element that is not already
-registered, the parser waits until the list of outstanding
-dependencies is empty. After the parser has finished parsing, the
-module waits until its list of outstanding dependencies is empty
-before marking itself complete.
-
-The ``as`` attribute on the ``import`` element binds a name to the
-imported module:
-
-```html
-<import src="path/to/chocolate.sky" as="chocolate" />
-```
-
-Each module implicitly imports the [Built-In Elements
-Module](builtins.md).
-
-When a module imports another, and the ``import`` element has no
-``as`` attribute, then any elements registered in that module whose
-tag names do not begin with an underscore must be registered on the
-importing module. (If multiple elements are registered with the same
-name, that name gets marked as dead for that module and all the
-registrations for that name are discarded.)
-
-TODO(ianh): decide if elements imported with "as" should be imported
-but with the "as" name prefixed, as in ``<foo.button>``
-
-
-Module API
-----------
-
-Each module consists of one or more libraries. The first library in a
-module is the *element tree library*, which consists of the following
-code for a Sky module:
-
-```dart
-import 'dart:sky';
-final Module module = new Module();
-```
-
-...and the following code for a Sky application:
-
-```dart
-import 'dart:sky';
-final Module module = new Application();
-```
-
-The ``<script>`` elements found in the module's element tree create
-the subsequent libraries. Each one first imports the ``dart:mirror``
-library, then the ``dart:sky`` module, then the first library
-described above, then all the modules referenced by ``<import>``
-element up to that ``<script>`` element and all the libraries defined
-by ``<script>`` elements up to that point, interleaved so as to
-maintain the same relative order as those elements were first seen by
-the parser.
-
-When a library imports a module, it actually imports all the libraries
-that were declared by that module except the aforementioned element
-tree library. If the ``as`` attribute is present on the ``import``
-element, all the libraries are bound to the same name.
-
-At the end of the ``<script>`` block's source, if it parsed correctly
-and completely, the conceptual equivalent of the following code is
-appended (but without affecting the library's list of declarations and
-without any possibility of it clashing with identifiers described in
-the library itself):
-
-```dart
-class _ { }
-void main(ScriptElement script) {
- LibraryMirror library = reflectClass(_).owner as LibraryMirror;
- if (library.declarations.containsKey(#_init) && library.declarations[#_init] is MethodMirror)
- _init(script);
- AutomaticMetadata.runLibrary(library, module, script);
-}
-```
-
-Then, that ``main(script)`` function is called, with ``script`` set to
-the ``ScriptElement`` object representing the relevant ``<script>``
-element.
-
-TODO(ianh): decide what URL and name we should give the libraries, as
-exposed in MirrorSystem.getName(libraryMirror.qualifiedName) etc
-
-The ``Module`` class is defined in ``dart:sky`` as follows:
-
-```dart
-abstract class AbstractModule extends EventTarget {
- AbstractModule({this.url, this.elements});
-
- final String url;
-
- final Root elements; // O(1)
- // the Root node of the module or application's element tree
-
- external Future<Module> import(String url); // O(Yikes)
- // load and return the URL at the given Module
- // if it's already loaded, the future will resolve immediately
- // if loading fails, the future will have an error
-
- external List<Module> getImports(); // O(N)
- // returns the Module objects of all the imported modules
-
- external void registerElement(String tagname, Type elementClass); // O(1)
- // registers a tag name with the parser
- // only useful during parse time
- // verify that tagname isn't null or empty
- // verify that elementClass is the Type of a class that extends Element (directly or indirectly, but not via "implements" or "with")
- // (see the @tagname code for an example of how to verify that from dart)
- // verify that there's not already a class registered for this tag name
- // if there is, then mark this tagname is broken, so that it acts as if it's not registered in the parser,
- // and, if this is the first time it was marked broken, log a console message regarding the issue
- // (mention the tag name but not the classes, so that it's not observable that this currently happens out of order)
-}
-
-class Module extends AbstractModule {
- Module({String url, Root elements, this.application}) :
- super(url: url, elements: elements); // O(1)
- final Application application; // O(1)
-}
-
-class Application extends AbstractModule {
- Application({String url, Root elements, this.gestureManager}) :
- super(url: url, elements: elements); // O(1)
- external String get title; // O(1)
- external void set title(String newValue); // O(1)
- final GestureManager gestureManager;
-}
-```
