// Type Registry
// -------------

// an input type, and retrieve either the item registered
// for a specific type or the default registration

  this.registeredTypes = {};
};

// Borrow Backbone's `extend` keyword for our TypeRegistry

// Key Extractors
// --------------

// Key extractors produce the "key" in `{key: "value"}`
// pairs, when serializing.
Backbone.Syphon.KeyExtractorSet = Backbone.Syphon.TypeRegistry.extend();

// Built-in Key Extractors
Backbone.Syphon.KeyExtractors = new Backbone.Syphon.KeyExtractorSet();

// The default key extractor, which uses the
// input element's "id" attribute
Backbone.Syphon.KeyExtractors.registerDefault(function($el){
  return $el.prop("name");
});


// Input Readers
// -------------

// Input Readers are used to extract the value from
// an input element, for the serialized object result
Backbone.Syphon.InputReaderSet = Backbone.Syphon.TypeRegistry.extend();

// Built-in Input Readers
Backbone.Syphon.InputReaders = new Backbone.Syphon.InputReaderSet();

// The default input reader, which uses an input
// element's "value"

  return $el.val();
});

// Checkbox reader, returning a boolean value for
// whether or not the checkbox is checked.
Backbone.Syphon.InputReaders.register("checkbox", function($el){

// Input Writers
// -------------

// Input Writers are used to insert a value from an
// object into an input element.

// Built-in Input Writers

// Checkbox writer, set whether or not the checkbox is checked
// depending on the boolean value.
Backbone.Syphon.InputWriters.register("checkbox", function($el, value){
  $el.prop("checked", value);
});

// Radio button writer, set whether or not the radio button is
// checked.  The button should only be checked if it's value
// equals the given value.
Backbone.Syphon.InputWriters.register("radio", function($el, value){
  $el.prop("checked", $el.val() === value);
});

// Key Assignment Validators
// -------------------------

// Key Assignment Validators are used to determine whether or not a
// key should be assigned to a value, after the key and value have been
// extracted from the element. This is the last opportunity to prevent
// bad data from getting serialized to your object.

Backbone.Syphon.KeyAssignmentValidatorSet = Backbone.Syphon.TypeRegistry.extend();

// Build-in Key Assignment Validators

// radio button group is valid
Backbone.Syphon.KeyAssignmentValidators.register("radio", function($el, key, value){ 
  return $el.prop("checked");
});


// Backbone.Syphon.KeySplitter
// ---------------------------

// This function is used to split DOM element keys in to an array
// of parts, which are then used to create a nested result structure.
// returning `["foo", "bar"]` results in `{foo: { bar: "value" }}`.
//
// Override this method to use a custom key splitter, such as:
// `<input name="foo.bar.baz">`, `return key.split(".")`
Backbone.Syphon.KeySplitter = function(key){
  var matches = key.match(/[^\[\]]+/g);

    matches.push([lastKey]);
  }

}


// Backbone.Syphon.KeyJoiner
// -------------------------

// Take two segments of a key and join them together, to create the
// de-normalized key name, when deserializing a data structure back
// in to a form.
//
// Example: 
//
// With this data strucutre `{foo: { bar: {baz: "value", quux: "another"} } }`,
// the key joiner will be called with these parameters, and assuming the
// join happens with "[ ]" square brackets, the specified output:
// 
// `KeyJoiner("foo", "bar")` //=> "foo[bar]"
// `KeyJoiner("foo[bar]", "baz")` //=> "foo[bar][baz]"
// `KeyJoiner("foo[bar]", "quux")` //=> "foo[bar][quux]"

Backbone.Syphon.KeyJoiner = function(parentKey, childKey){
  return parentKey + "[" + childKey + "]";
