--- Get a widget index.
-- @param widget The widget to look for
-- @param[opt] recursive Also check sub-widgets
-- @param[opt] ... Additional widgets to add at the end of the path
-- @return The index
-- @return The parent layout
-- @return The path between self and widget
-- @method index
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- Get or set the children elements.
-- @property children
-- @tparam table children The children.
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- Get all direct and indirect children widgets.
-- This will scan all containers recursively to find widgets
-- Warning: This method it prone to stack overflow id the widget, or any of its
-- children, contain (directly or indirectly) itself.
-- @property all_children
-- @tparam table children The children.
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- Set a declarative widget hierarchy description.
-- See [The declarative layout system](../documentation/03-declarative-layout.md.html)
-- @param args An array containing the widgets disposition
-- @method setup
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- Force a widget height.
-- @property forced_height
-- @tparam number|nil height The height (`nil` for automatic)
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- Force a widget width.
-- @property forced_width
-- @tparam number|nil width The width (`nil` for automatic)
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- The widget opacity (transparency).
-- @property opacity
-- @tparam[opt=1] number opacity The opacity (between 0 and 1)
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- The widget visibility.
-- @property visible
-- @param boolean
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- The widget buttons.
--
-- The table contains a list of `awful.button` objects.
--
-- @property buttons
-- @param table
-- @see awful.button
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- Add a new `awful.button` to this widget.
-- @tparam awful.button button The button to add.
-- @method add_button
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- Emit a signal and ensure all parent widgets in the hierarchies also
-- forward the signal. This is useful to track signals when there is a dynamic
-- set of containers and layouts wrapping the widget.
-- @tparam string signal_name
-- @param ... Other arguments
-- @baseclass wibox.widget
-- @method emit_signal_recursive

--- When the layout (size) change.
-- This signal is emitted when the previous results of `:layout()` and `:fit()`
-- are no longer valid.  Unless this signal is emitted, `:layout()` and `:fit()`
-- must return the same result when called with the same arguments.
-- @signal widget::layout_changed
-- @see widget::redraw_needed
-- @baseclass wibox.widget

--- When the widget content changed.
-- This signal is emitted when the content of the widget changes. The widget will
-- be redrawn, it is not re-layouted. Put differently, it is assumed that
-- `:layout()` and `:fit()` would still return the same results as before.
-- @signal widget::redraw_needed
