module Redmine #:nodoc:

  # Base class for Redmine plugins.
  # Plugins are registered using the <tt>register</tt> class method that acts as the public constructor.
  # 
  #   Redmine::Plugin.register :example do
  #     name 'Example plugin'
  #     author 'John Smith'
  #     description 'This is an example plugin for Redmine'
  #     version '0.0.1'
  #     settings :default => {'foo'=>'bar'}, :partial => 'settings/settings'
  #   end
  # 
  # === Plugin attributes
  # 
  # +settings+ is an optional attribute that let the plugin be configurable.
  # It must be a hash with the following keys:
  # * <tt>:default</tt>: default value for the plugin settings
  # * <tt>:partial</tt>: path of the configuration partial view, relative to the plugin <tt>app/views</tt> directory
  # Example:
  #   settings :default => {'foo'=>'bar'}, :partial => 'settings/settings'
  # In this example, the settings partial will be found here in the plugin directory: <tt>app/views/settings/_settings.rhtml</tt>.
  # 
  # When rendered, the plugin settings value is available as the local variable +settings+

    # Defines a permission called +name+ for the given +actions+.
    # 
    # The +actions+ argument is a hash with controllers as keys and actions as values (a single value or an array):
    #   permission :destroy_contacts, { :contacts => :destroy }
    #   permission :view_contacts, { :contacts => [:index, :show] }
    # 
    # The +options+ argument can be used to make the permission public (implicitly given to any user)
    # or to restrict users the permission can be given to.
    # 
    # Examples
    #   # A permission that is implicitly given to any user
    #   # This permission won't appear on the Roles & Permissions setup screen
    #   permission :say_hello, { :example => :say_hello }, :public => true
    # 
    #   # A permission that can be given to any user
    #   permission :say_hello, { :example => :say_hello }
    #   
    #   # A permission that can be given to registered users only
    #   permission :say_hello, { :example => :say_hello }, :require => loggedin
    #   
    #   # A permission that can be given to project members only
    #   permission :say_hello, { :example => :say_hello }, :require => member

    # * <tt>:class_name</tt> - one or more model(s) that provide these events (inferred from event_type by default)
    # * <tt>:default</tt> - setting this option to false will make the events not displayed by default
    # 
    # A model can provide several activity event types.
    # 
    # Examples:
    #   register :news
    #   register :scrums, :class_name => 'Meeting'
    #   register :issues, :class_name => ['Issue', 'Journal']
    # 
    # Retrieving events:
    # Associated model(s) must implement the find_events class method.
    # ActiveRecord models can use acts_as_activity_provider as a way to implement this class method.
    # 
    # The following call should return all the scrum events visible by current user that occured in the 5 last days: 
    #   Meeting.find_events('scrums', User.current, 5.days.ago, Date.today)
    #   Meeting.find_events('scrums', User.current, 5.days.ago, Date.today, :project => foo) # events for project foo only
    # 
    # Note that :view_scrums permission is required to view these events in the activity view.
