Method _dom​_node Undocumented

Inherited from Node (via Element):

Method __bool__ Node instances are always true, even if they're empty. A node is more than a simple container. Its boolean "truth" does not depend on having one or more subnodes in the doctree.
Method __str__ Undocumented

Method next​_node Return the first node in the iterable returned by traverse(), or None if the iterable is empty.
Method setup​_child Undocumented
Method traverse Return an iterable containing
Method walk No summary
Method walkabout Perform a tree traversal similarly to Node.walk() (which see), except also call the dispatch_departure() method before exiting each node.
Class Variable line The line number (1-based) of the beginning of this Node in source.
Class Variable parent Back-reference to the Node immediately containing this Node.
Class Variable source Path or description of the input source which generated this Node.
Property document Return the document node at the root of the tree containing this Node.
Method _all​_traverse Return iterator that doesn't check for a condition.
Method _fast​_traverse Return iterator that only supports instance checks.
Method _traverse Return iterator over nodes following self. See traverse().

def set_name_id_map(self, node, id, msgnode=None, explicit=None): (source)

`self.nameids` maps names to IDs, while `self.nametypes` maps names to booleans representing hyperlink type (True==explicit, False==implicit). This method updates the mappings. The following state transition table shows how `self.nameids` ("ids") and `self.nametypes` ("types") change with new input (a call to this method), and what actions are performed ("implicit"-type system messages are INFO/1, and "explicit"-type system messages are ERROR/3): ==== ===== ======== ======== ======= ==== ===== ===== Old State Input Action New State Notes ----------- -------- ----------------- ----------- ----- ids types new type sys.msg. dupname ids types ==== ===== ======== ======== ======= ==== ===== ===== - - explicit - - new True - - implicit - - new False None False explicit - - new True old False explicit implicit old new True None True explicit explicit new None True old True explicit explicit new,old None True [#]_ None False implicit implicit new None False old False implicit implicit new,old None False None True implicit implicit new None True old True implicit implicit new old True ==== ===== ======== ======== ======= ==== ===== ===== .. [#] Do not clear the name-to-id map or invalidate the old target if both old and new targets are external and refer to identical URIs. The new target is invalidated regardless.
