"""A collection of modules for building different kinds of trees from HTML
documents.
To create a treebuilder for a new type of tree, you need to do
implement several things:
1. A set of classes for various types of elements: Document, Doctype, Comment,
   Element. These must implement the interface of ``base.treebuilders.Node``
   (although comment nodes have a different signature for their constructor,
   see ``treebuilders.etree.Comment``) Textual content may also be implemented
   as another node type, or not, as your tree implementation requires.
2. A treebuilder object (called ``TreeBuilder`` by convention) that inherits
   from ``treebuilders.base.TreeBuilder``. This has 4 required attributes:
   * ``documentClass`` - the class to use for the bottommost node of a document
   * ``elementClass`` - the class to use for HTML Elements
   * ``commentClass`` - the class to use for comments
   * ``doctypeClass`` - the class to use for doctypes
   It also has one required method:
   * ``getDocument`` - Returns the root node of the complete document tree
3. If you wish to run the unit tests, you must also create a ``testSerializer``
   method on your treebuilder which accepts a node and returns a string
   containing Node and its children serialized according to the format used in
   the unittests

        * "dom" - A generic builder for DOM implementations, defaulting to a

        * "etree" - A generic builder for tree implementations exposing an
          ElementTree-like interface, defaulting to xml.etree.cElementTree if
          available and xml.etree.ElementTree if not.
        * "lxml" - A etree-based builder for lxml.etree, handling limitations
          of lxml's implementation.
