+
+    This class provides a simplified API to create virtual directories of playable items
+    for Kodi content plugins.
+    :class:`simpleplugin.Plugin` uses a concept of callable plugin actions (functions or methods)
+    that are defined using :meth:`Plugin.action` decorator.
+    A Plugin instance must have at least one action that is named ``'root'``.
+
+    Minimal example:
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        from simpleplugin import Plugin
+
+        plugin = Plugin()
+
+        @plugin.action()
+        def root(params):  # Mandatory item!
+            return [{'label': 'Foo',
+                    'url': plugin.get_url(action='some_action', param='Foo')},
+                    {'label': 'Bar',
+                    'url': plugin.get_url(action='some_action', param='Bar')}]
+
+        @plugin.action()
+        def some_action(params):
+            return [{'label': params['param']}]
+
+        plugin.run()
+
+    An action callable receives 1 parameter -- params.
+    params is a dict-like object containing plugin call parameters (including action string)
+    The action callable can return
+    either a list/generator of dictionaries representing Kodi virtual directory items
+    or a resolved playable path (:class:`str` or :obj:`unicode`) for Kodi to play.
+
+    Example 1::
+
+        @plugin.action()
+        def list_action(params):
+            listing = get_listing(params)  # Some external function to create listing
+            return listing
+
+    The ``listing`` variable is a Python list/generator of dict items.
+    Example 2::
+
+        @plugin.action()
+        def play_action(params):
+            path = get_path(params)  # Some external function to get a playable path
+            return path
+
+    Each dict item can contain the following properties:
+
+    - label -- item's label (default: ``''``).
+    - label2 -- item's label2 (default: ``''``).
+    - thumb -- item's thumbnail (default: ``''``).
+    - icon -- item's icon (default: ``''``).
+    - path -- item's path (default: ``''``).
+    - fanart -- item's fanart (optional).
+    - art -- a dict containing all item's graphic (see :meth:`xbmcgui.ListItem.setArt` for more info) -- optional.
+    - stream_info -- a dictionary of ``{stream_type: {param: value}}`` items
+      (see :meth:`xbmcgui.ListItem.addStreamInfo`) -- optional.
+    - info --  a dictionary of ``{media: {param: value}}`` items
+      (see :meth:`xbmcgui.ListItem.setInfo`) -- optional
+    - context_menu - a list that contains 2-item tuples ``('Menu label', 'Action')``.
+      The items from the tuples are added to the item's context menu.
+    - url -- a callback URL for this list item.
+    - is_playable -- if ``True``, then this item is playable and must return a playable path or
+     be resolved via :meth:`Plugin.resolve_url` (default: ``False``).
+    - is_folder -- if ``True`` then the item will open a lower-level sub-listing. if ``False``,
+      the item either is a playable media or a general-purpose script
+      which neither creates a virtual folder nor points to a playable media (default: C{True}).
+      if ``'is_playable'`` is set to ``True``, then ``'is_folder'`` value automatically assumed to be ``False``.
+    - subtitles -- the list of paths to subtitle files (optional).
+    - mime -- item's mime type (optional).
+    - list_item -- an 'class:`xbmcgui.ListItem` instance (optional).
+      It is used when you want to set all list item properties by yourself.
+      If ``'list_item'`` property is present, all other properties,
+      except for ``'url'`` and ``'is_folder'``, are ignored.
+    - properties -- a dictionary of list item properties
+      (see :meth:`xbmcgui.ListItem.setProperty`) -- optional.
+
+    Example 3::
+
+        listing = [{    'label': 'Label',
+                        'label2': 'Label 2',
+                        'thumb': 'thumb.png',
+                        'icon': 'icon.png',
+                        'fanart': 'fanart.jpg',
+                        'art': {'clearart': 'clearart.png'},
+                        'stream_info': {'video': {'codec': 'h264', 'duration': 1200},
+                                        'audio': {'codec': 'ac3', 'language': 'en'}},
+                        'info': {'video': {'genre': 'Comedy', 'year': 2005}},
+                        'context_menu': [('Menu Item', 'Action')],
+                        'url': 'plugin:/plugin.video.test/?action=play',
+                        'is_playable': True,
+                        'is_folder': False,
+                        'subtitles': ['/path/to/subtitles.en.srt', '/path/to/subtitles.uk.srt'],
+                        'mime': 'video/mp4'
+                        }]
+
+    Alternatively, an action callable can use :meth:`Plugin.create_listing` and :meth:`Plugin.resolve_url`
+    static methods to pass additional parameters to Kodi.
+
+    Example 4::
+
+        @plugin.action()
+        def list_action(params):
+            listing = get_listing(params)  # Some external function to create listing
+            return Plugin.create_listing(listing, sort_methods=(2, 10, 17), view_mode=500)
+
+    Example 5::
+
+        @plugin.action()
+        def play_action(params):
+            path = get_path(params)  # Some external function to get a playable path
+            return Plugin.resolve_url(path, succeeded=True)
+
+    If an action callable performs any actions other than creating a listing or
+    resolving a playable URL, it must return ``None``.
