The Core modeling language is the the basis for any other language.
The :obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.Element` class acts as the root for all gaphor domain classes.
The :obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.Base` class acts as the root for all gaphor domain classes.
All models derive from :obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.Element`, which supports ownership.
:obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.Diagram` and :obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.Presentation` form the basis for everything you see
in a diagram.

The :obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.Element` base class provides event notification and integrates
The :obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.Base` base class provides event notification and integrates
with the model repository (internally known as :obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.ElementFactory`).
Bi-directional relationships are also possible, as well as derived
relations.
The :obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.element.RepositoryProtocol`, and
:obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.element.EventWatcherProtocol`
The :obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.base.RepositoryProtocol`, and
:obj:`~gaphor.core.modeling.base.EventWatcherProtocol`
protocols are important to connect the model to the repository and event handling
mechanisms.
The class ``Element`` is the core of Gaphor’s data model.
The class ``Base`` is the core of Gaphor’s data model.

Select all elements from the repository.

Get an element by id from the repository.

Add a watch for a specific path. The path is relative to the element
that created the watcher object.
Returns ``self``, so watch operations can be chained.
.. automethod:: gaphor.core.modeling.element.EventWatcherProtocol.unsubscribe_all
.. automethod:: gaphor.core.modeling.base.EventWatcherProtocol.unsubscribe_all
Should be called before the watcher is disposed, to release all watched paths.
