// Code generated by ./cmd/internal. DO NOT EDIT.

// Package cchat is a set of stabilized interfaces for cchat implementations,
// joining the backend and frontend together.
//
//
// Backend
//
// Almost anything in the backend comes with an ID. For example, a Server must
// have an ID, or a Session must have a user ID. The backend is required to
// guarantee that IDs are somehow unique. This should already be the case for
// most chat services; for example, Discord provides IDs for guilds, channels,
// members, and more. The only time that the backend should not guarantee ID
// uniqueness is across Sessions, because it doesn't make sense to do so. In
// this case, the frontend should guarantee uniqueness instead, either by
// discarding duplicated items, overriding them, or anything reasonable and
// explicit.
//
// Methods implemented by the backend that have frontend containers as arguments
// can do IO. Frontends must NOT rely on individual backend states and should
// always assume that they will block.
//
// Methods that do not return an error must NOT do any IO to prevent blocking
// the main thread. As such, ID() and Name() must never do any IO. Methods that
// do return an error may do IO, but they should be documented per method.
//
// Backend implementations have certain conditions that should be adhered to:
//
//    - Storing MessagesContainer and ServersContainer are advised
//    against; however, they should be done if need be.
//    - Other containers such as LabelContainer and IconContainer
//    should also not be stored; however, the same rule as above
//    applies.
//    - For the server list, icon updates and such that happen after
//    their calls should use SetServers().
//    - For the nickname of the current server, the backend can store
//    the state of the label container. It must, however, remove the
//    container when the stop callback from JoinServer() is called.
//    - Some methods that take in a container may take in a context as
//    well.  Although implementations don't have to use this context,
//    it should try to.
//
// Note: IO in most cases usually refer to networking, but they should files and
// anything that is blocking, such as mutexes or semaphores.
//
// Note: As mentioned above, contexts are optional for both the frontend and
// backend. The frontend may use it for cancellation, and the backend may ignore
// it.
//
// Some interfaces can be extended. Interfaces that are extendable will have
// methods starting with "As" and returns another interface type. The
// implementation may or may not return the same struct as the interface, but
// the caller should not have to type assert it to a struct. They can also
// return nil, which should indicate the backend that the feature is not
// implemented.
//
// To avoid confusing, when said "A implements B," it is mostly assumed that A
// has a method named "AsB." It does not mean that A can be type-asserted to B.
//
// For future references, these "As" methods will be called asserter methods.
//
// Note: Backends must not do IO in the "As" methods. Most of the time, it
// should only conditionally check the local state and return value or nil.
//
// Below is an example of checking for an extended interface.
//
//    if iconer := server.AsIconer(); iconer != nil {
//        println("Server implements Iconer.")
//    }
//
//
// Frontend
//
// Frontend contains all interfaces that a frontend can or must implement. The
// backend may call these methods any time from any goroutine. Thus, they should
// be thread-safe. They should also not block the call by doing so, as backends
// may call these methods in its own main thread.
//
// It is worth pointing out that frontend container interfaces will not have an
// error handling API, as frontends can do that themselves. Errors returned by
// backend methods will be errors from the backend itself and never the frontend
// errors.
