# A ConfigBuilder model implements a logic-less interface to a component of
# Vagrant.
#
# A model should implement the following methods:
#
# ## `self.new_from_hash`
#
# This method takes an arbitrarily nested data structure of basic data types
# (Arrays, Hashes, Numerics, Strings, etc) and instantiates a new object
# with attributes set based on that data structure.
#
# ## `#to_proc`
#
# This method takes the object attributes and generates a lambda that will
# create a Vagrant config with the state specified by the attributes. The
# lambda should have an arity of one and should be passed a `config` object.
# The generated block will generate the Vagrant config that implements the
# behavior specified by the object attributes.
#
# If the Model delegates certain configuration to other models, the generated
# lambda should be able to evaluate lambdas from the delegated models.
#
# Implementing classes do not need to inherit from ConfigBuilder::Model::Base,
# but it makes life easier.
