// TODO: Better handling of lifecycle for registered views:
//
// * [!] Just redo basically everything with view management so there are no
// pre-`activeViewChange` side effects and handle the rest of these things:
//
// * Seems like any view created via `createView` should listen for the view's
// `destroy` event and use that to remove it from the `_viewsInfoMap`. I
// should look at what ModelList does for Models as a reference.
//
// * Should we have a companion `destroyView()` method? Maybe this wouldn't be
// needed if we have a `getView(name, create)` method, and already doing the
// above? We could do `app.getView('foo').destroy()` and it would be removed
// from the `_viewsInfoMap` as well.
//
// * Should we wait to call a view's `render()` method inside of the
// `_attachView()` method?
//
// * Should named views support a collection of instances instead of just one?

/**
Hash of view-name to metadata used to declaratively describe an
application's views and their relationship with the app and its other views.
The view metadata is composed of Objects keyed to a view-name that can have
any or all of the following properties:
* `type`: Function or a string representing the view constructor to use to
create view instances. If a string is used, the constructor function is
assumed to be on the `Y` object; e.g. `"SomeView"` -> `Y.SomeView`.
* `preserve`: Boolean for whether the view instance should be retained. By
default, the view instance will be destroyed when it is no longer the
`activeView`. If `true` the view instance will simply be `removed()`
from the DOM when it is no longer active. This is useful when the view
is frequently used and may be expensive to re-create.
* `parent`: String to another named view in this hash that represents the
parent view within the application's view hierarchy; e.g. a `"photo"`
view could have `"album"` has its `parent` view. This parent/child
relationship is a useful cue for things like transitions.
* `instance`: Used internally to manage the current instance of this named
view. This can be used if your view instance is created up-front, or if
you would rather manage the View lifecycle, but you probably should just
let this be handled for you.
If `views` are specified at instantiation time, the metadata in the `views`
Object here will be used as defaults when creating the instance's `views`.
Every `Y.App` instance gets its own copy of a `views` object so this Object
on the prototype will not be polluted.
@example
// Imagine that `Y.UsersView` and `Y.UserView` have been defined.
var app = new Y.App({
views: {
users: {
type : Y.UsersView,
preserve: true
},
user: {
type : Y.UserView,
parent: 'users'
}

@param {Object} [options] Optional object containing any of the following

@param {Function} [options.callback] Optional callback function to call
after new `activeView` is ready to use, the function will be passed:
@param {View} options.callback.view A reference to the new

@param {Boolean} [options.prepend=false] Whether the `view` should be
prepended instead of appended to the `viewContainer`.
@param {Boolean} [options.render] Whether the `view` should be rendered.

rendered if it's newly created by this method.

have its attributes updated by passing the `config` object to its
`setAttrs()` method. **Note:** This option does not have an effect if
the `view` instance is created as a result of calling this method.
@param {Function} [callback] Optional callback Function to call after the
new `activeView` is ready to use. **Note:** this will override
`options.callback` and it can be specified as either the third or fourth

Container node which represents the application's bounding-box, into

The container node serves as the host for all DOM events attached by the
app. Delegation is used to handle events on children of the container,
allowing the container's contents to be re-rendered at any time without
losing event subscriptions.
The default container is the `<body>` Node, but you can override this in
a subclass, or by passing in a custom `container` config value at
instantiation time.
When `container` is overridden by a subclass or passed as a config
option at instantiation time, it may be provided as a selector string, a
DOM element, or a `Y.Node` instance. During initialization, this app's
`create()` method will be called to convert the container into a
`Y.Node` instance if it isn't one already and stamp it with the CSS
class: `"yui3-app"`.
The container is not added to the page automatically. This allows you to
have full control over how and when your app is actually rendered to
the page.

/**
Whether or not this application's server is capable of properly routing
all requests and rendering the initial state in the HTML responses.
This can have three different values, each having particular
implications on how the app will handle routing and navigation:
* `undefined`: The best form of URLs will be chosen based on the
capabilities of the browser. Given no information about the server
environmentm a balanced approach to routing and navigation is
chosen.
The server should be capable of handling full-path requests, since
full-URLs will be generated by browsers using HTML5 history. If this
is a client-side-only app the server could handle full-URL requests
by sending a redirect back to the root with a hash-based URL, e.g:
Request: http://example.com/users/1
Redirect to: http://example.com/#/users/1
* `true`: The server is *fully* capable of properly handling requests
to all full-path URLs the app can produce.
This is the best option for progressive-enhancement because it will
cause **all URLs to always have full-paths**, which means the server
will be able to accurately handle all URLs this app produces. e.g.
http://example.com/users/1
To meet this strict full-URL requirement, browsers which are not
capable of using HTML5 history will make requests to the server
resulting in full-page reloads.
* `false`: The server is *not* capable of properly handling requests
to all full-path URLs the app can produce, therefore all routing
will be handled by this App instance.
Be aware that this will cause **all URLs to always be hash-based**,
even in browsers that are capable of using HTML5 history. e.g.
http://example.com/#/users/1
A single-page or client-side-only app where the server sends a
"shell" page with JavaScript to the client might have this
restriction. If you're setting this to `false`, read the following:
**Note:** When this is set to `false`, the server will *never* receive
the full URL because browsers do not send the fragment-part to the
server, that is everything after and including the "#".
Consider the following example:
URL shown in browser: http://example.com/#/users/1
URL sent to server: http://example.com/
You should feel bad about hurting our precious web if you forcefully set
either `serverRouting` or `html5` to `false`, because you're basically
punching the web in the face here with your lossy URLs! Please make sure
you know what you're doing and that you understand the implications.
Ideally you should always prefer full-path URLs (not /#/foo/), and want
full-page reloads when the client's browser is not capable of enhancing
the experience using the HTML5 history APIs. Setting this to `true` is
the best option for progressive-enhancement (and graceful-degradation).

The node into which this app's `views` will be rendered when they become
the `activeView`.
The view container node serves as the container to hold the app's
`activeView`. Each time the `activeView` is set via `showView()`, the
previous view will be removed from this node, and the new active view's
`container` node will be appended.
The default view container is a `<div>` Node, but you can override this
in a subclass, or by passing in a custom `viewContainer` config value at
instantiation time. The `viewContainer` may be provided as a selector
string, DOM element, or a `Y.Node` instance (having the `viewContainer`
and the `container` be the same node is also supported).
The app's `render()` method will stamp the view container with the CSS
class `"yui3-app-views"` and append it to the app's `container` node if
it isn't already, and any `activeView` will be appended to this node if
it isn't already.
