`Document` component for grounding model inputs with text passages.

`Document` wraps a text passage with an optional `title` and `doc_id`, and
renders them inline as a formatted citation string for the model. Documents are
typically attached to a `Message` via its `documents` parameter, enabling
retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workflows.

A text passage with optional metadata for grounding model inputs.

Documents are typically attached to a `Message` via its `documents`
parameter to enable retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workflows.

**Args:**

* `text`: The text content of the document.
* `title`: An optional human-readable title for the document.
* `doc_id`: An optional unique identifier for the document.

<div className="h-8" />

**Methods:**

<div className="w-full h-px bg-gray-200 dark:bg-gray-700 my-4" />

#### <span className="ml-2 inline-flex items-center rounded-full px-2 py-1 text-[0.7rem] font-bold tracking-wide bg-[#3064E3]/20 text-[#1D4ED8]">FUNC</span> `parts` <sup><a href="https://github.com/generative-computing/mellea/blob/v0.6.0/mellea/stdlib/components/docs/document.py#L34" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python theme={null}
parts(self) -> list[Component | CBlock]
```

Returns the constituent parts of this document.

**Returns:**

* list\[Component | CBlock]: An empty list by default since the base
* `Document` class has no constituent parts. Subclasses may override
* this method to return meaningful parts.

```python theme={null}
format_for_llm(self) -> TemplateRepresentation
```

Formats the `Document` as a [`TemplateRepresentation`](../../../core/base#class-templaterepresentation).

Returns: a TemplateRepresentation with text, title, and doc\_id args.
