VERSION

version 0.44

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
package My::Thing;
use Moose 2.1200;
with 'Fey::Role::MakesAliasObjects'
    => { alias_class => 'My::Alias',
         self_param  => 'thing',
         name_param  => 'alias_name',
       };
            
          

DESCRIPTION

This role adds a "make an alias object" method to a class. This is for things like tables and columns, which can have aliases.

PARAMETERS

alias_class

The name of the class whose new() is called by the alias() method (see below). Required.

self_param

The name of the parameter to pass $self to the alias_class' new() method as. Required.

name_param

The name of the parameter to alias() that passing a single string is assumed to be. Defaults to alias_name.

METHODS

$obj->alias()

            

              
              
my $alias = $obj->alias(alias_name => 'an_alias', %other_params);
my $alias = $obj->alias('an_alias');
            
          

Create a new alias for this object. If a single parameter is provided, it is assumed to be whatever the name_param parameter specifies (see above).
