/**
 * @defgroup views_overview Views overview
 * @{
 * Overview of the Views module API
 *
 * The Views module is a generalized query and display engine, which can be used
 * to make views (formatted lists, grids, feeds, and other output) of items
 * (often entities, but can be other types of data). Developers can interact
 * with Views in several ways:
 * - Provide plugins: Views plugins govern nearly every aspect of views,
 *   including querying (sorting, filtering, etc.) and display (at several
 *   levels of granularity, ranging from the entire view to the details of a
 *   field). See the @link views_plugins Views plugins topic @endlink for
 *   more information.
 * - Provide data: Data types can be provided to Views by implementing
 *   hook_views_data(), and data types provided by other modules can be altered
 *   by implementing hook_views_data_alter(). To provide views data for an
 *   entity, create a class implementing
 *   \Drupal\views\EntityViewsDataInterface and reference this in the
 *   "views_data" annotation in the entity class. You can autogenerate big parts
 *   of the integration if you extend the \Drupal\views\EntityViewsData base
 *   class. See the @link entity_api Entity API topic @endlink for more
 *   information about entities.
 * - Implement hooks: A few operations in Views can be influenced by hooks.
 *   See the @link views_hooks Views hooks topic @endlink for a list.
 * - Theming: See the @link views_templates Views templates topic @endlink
 *   for more information.

 * The table and fields are processed in Views using various plugins. See

 *
 * To provide views data for an entity, instead of implementing this hook,
 * create a class implementing \Drupal\views\EntityViewsDataInterface and
 * reference this in the "views" annotation in the entity class. The return
 * value of the getViewsData() method on the interface is the same as this hook,
 * and base class in \Drupal\views\EntityViewsData will take care of adding the
 * basic Views tables and fields for your entity. See the
 * @link entity_api Entity API topic @endlink for more information about
 * entities.
 *
 * The data described with this hook is fetched and retrieved by
 * \Drupal\views\Views::viewsData()->get().
 *
 * @return array
 *   An associative array describing the structure of database tables and fields
 *   (and their equivalents) provided for use in Views. At the outermost level,
 *   the keys are the names used internally by Views for the tables (usually the
 *   actual table name). Each table's array describes the table itself, how to
 *   join to other tables, and the fields that are part of the table. The sample
 *   function body provides documentation of the details.

  // Within 'table', the value of 'provider' is the module that provides schema
  // or the entity type that causes the table to exist. Setting this ensures

  // module that implements hook_views_data().
  $data['example_table']['table']['provider'] = 'example_module';

  // Some tables are "base" tables, meaning that they can be the base tables

  // Some tables have an implicit, automatic relationship to other tables,
  // meaning that when the other table is available in a view (either as the
  // base table or through a relationship), this table's fields, filters, etc.
  // are automatically made available without having to add an additional

  // section to your 'table' section. Note that it is usually only a good idea
  // to do this for one-to-one joins, because otherwise your automatic join

  // most views won't need your table -- if that is the case, define a
  // relationship instead (see below).
  //
