"""
This module defines the base classes for the server Host hierarchy.
Implementation details:
You should import the "hosts" package instead of importing each type of host.
Host: a machine on which you can run programs
RemoteHost: a remote machine on which you can run programs

This class represents a machine on which you can run programs.
It may be a local machine, the one autoserv is running on, a remote
machine or a virtual machine.
Implementation details:
This is an abstract class, leaf subclasses must implement the methods
listed here. You must not instantiate this class but should
instantiate one of those leaf subclasses.
When overriding methods that raise NotImplementedError, the leaf class
is fully responsible for the implementation and should not chain calls
to super. When overriding methods that are a NOP in Host, the subclass
should chain calls to super(). The criteria for fitting a new method into
one category or the other should be:
1. If two separate generic implementations could reasonably be
concatenated, then the abstract implementation should pass and
subclasses should chain calls to super.
2. If only one class could reasonably perform the stated function
(e.g. two separate run() implementations cannot both be executed)
then the method should raise NotImplementedError in Host, and
the implementor should NOT chain calls to super, to ensure that
only one implementation ever gets executed.
