Document a Python module or class using Google-style docstrings following project conventions. The argument can be a class name or a module path.

遵循项目约定，使用Google风格的文档字符串为Python模块或类编写文档。传入的参数可以是类名或模块路径。

Instructions

操作步骤

Determine what to document based on the argument:
If a module path is provided (e.g.
```
src/pipecat/audio/vad/vad_analyzer.py
```
):
- Use that file directly
If a class name is provided (e.g.
```
VADAnalyzer
```
):
- Search for
```
class ClassName
```
  in
```
src/pipecat/
```
- If multiple files contain that class name, list all matches with their file paths, ask the user which one they want to document, and wait for confirmation
Once the file is identified, read the module to understand its structure:
- Identify all classes, functions, and important type aliases
- Understand the purpose of each component
Apply documentation in this order:
- Module docstring (at top, after imports)
- Class docstrings
- ```
__init__
```
  methods (always document constructor parameters)
- Public methods (not starting with
```
_
```
  )
- Dataclass/config classes with field descriptions
Skip documentation for:
- Private methods (starting with
```
_
```
  )
- Simple dunder methods (
```
__str__
```
  ,
```
__repr__
```
  ,
```
__post_init__
```
  )
- Very simple pass-through properties
- Already documented code - If a class, method, or function already has a complete docstring that follows the project style, do not modify it. A docstring is complete if it has:
  - A one-line summary
  - Args section (if it has parameters)
  - Returns section (if it returns something meaningful)
- Only add or improve documentation where it is missing or incomplete

根据传入的参数确定要文档化的对象：
如果提供的是模块路径（例如
```
src/pipecat/audio/vad/vad_analyzer.py
```
）：
- 直接使用该文件
如果提供的是类名（例如
```
VADAnalyzer
```
）：
- 在
```
src/pipecat/
```
  目录下搜索
```
class ClassName
```
  定义
- 如果多个文件包含该类名，列出所有匹配项及其文件路径，询问用户想要为哪个文件编写文档，等待用户确认
确定目标文件后，读取模块以理解其结构：
- 识别所有类、函数和重要的类型别名
- 理解每个组件的用途
按照以下顺序编写文档：
- 模块文档字符串（位于顶部，导入语句之后）
- 类文档字符串
- ```
__init__
```
  方法（务必记录构造函数的参数）
- 公共方法（以下划线
```
_
```
  开头的除外）
- 带字段描述的数据类/配置类
以下内容无需编写文档：
- 私有方法（以下划线
```
_
```
  开头的）
- 简单的特殊方法（
```
__str__
```
  、
```
__repr__
```
  、
```
__post_init__
```
  ）
- 非常简单的透传属性
- 已编写完整文档的代码 - 如果类、方法或函数已经有符合项目风格的完整文档字符串，请勿修改。完整的文档字符串应包含：
  - 一行摘要
  - 参数部分（如果有参数）
  - 返回值部分（如果返回有意义的内容）
- 仅在文档缺失或不完整的地方补充或完善文档

Module Docstring Format

模块文档字符串格式

python

"""[One-line description of module purpose].

[Optional: Longer explanation of functionality, key classes, or use cases.]
"""

Example:

python

"""Neuphonic text-to-speech service implementations.

This module provides WebSocket and HTTP-based integrations with Neuphonic's
text-to-speech API for real-time audio synthesis.
"""

python

"""[模块用途的一行描述]。

[可选：对功能、核心类或使用场景的详细说明。]

Class Docstring Format

类文档字符串格式

python

class ClassName:
    """One-line summary describing what the class does.

    [Longer description explaining purpose, behavior, and key features.

Example:

python

class FrameProcessor(BaseObject):
    """Base class for all frame processors in the pipeline.

    Frame processors are the building blocks of Pipecat pipelines, they can be
    linked to form complex processing pipelines. They receive frames, process
    them, and pass them to the next or previous processor in the chain.

    Event handlers available:

    - on_before_process_frame: Called before a frame is processed
    - on_after_process_frame: Called after a frame is processed

    Example::

        @processor.event_handler("on_before_process_frame")

        async def on_after_process_frame(processor, frame):
            ...

Note: When listing event handlers, do NOT use backticks. Include an

Example::

section (with double colon for Sphinx) showing the decorator pattern and function signature for each event.

python

class ClassName:
    """描述类功能的一行摘要。

    - on_before_process_frame：在处理帧之前调用
    - on_after_process_frame：在处理帧之后调用

    示例::

        @processor.event_handler("on_before_process_frame")
        async def on_before_process_frame(processor, frame):

        async def on_after_process_frame(processor, frame):

Writing Style Guidelines

写作风格指南

Concise and professional - No casual language or filler words
Action-oriented - Start with verbs: "Processes...", "Manages...", "Converts..."
Purpose before implementation - Explain WHY before HOW
Clear parameter descriptions - Include type hints, defaults, and purpose
No redundant type info - Type hints are in the signature, don't repeat in description
Use backticks for code references - Wrap class names, method names, event names, parameter names, and code snippets in backticks

Good: "Neuphonic API key for authentication." Bad: "str: The API key (string) that is used for authenticating with Neuphonic."

Good: "Triggers

on_speech_started

when the

VADAnalyzer

detects speech." Bad: "Triggers on_speech_started when the VADAnalyzer detects speech."

简洁专业 - 避免随意语言或冗余词汇
面向动作 - 以动词开头：“处理...”、“管理...”、“转换...”
先讲用途再讲实现 - 先解释“为什么”再说明“怎么做”
清晰的参数描述 - 包含类型提示、默认值和用途
无冗余类型信息 - 类型提示已在签名中，请勿在描述中重复
代码引用使用反引号 - 将类名、方法名、事件名、参数名和代码片段用反引号包裹

正确示例：“用于身份验证的Neuphonic API密钥。” 错误示例：“str: 用于Neuphonic身份验证的API密钥（字符串）。”

正确示例：“当

VADAnalyzer

检测到语音时触发

on_speech_started

事件。” 错误示例：“当VADAnalyzer检测到语音时触发on_speech_started事件。”

Deprecation Notice Format

弃用通知格式

When documenting deprecated code:

python

"""[Description].

.. deprecated:: X.X.X
    `ClassName` is deprecated and will be removed in a future version.
    Use `NewClassName` instead.
"""

为已弃用的代码编写文档时：

python

"""[描述]。

.. deprecated:: X.X.X
    `ClassName` 已弃用，将在未来版本中移除。
    请改用 `NewClassName`。
