NAME

Mom - Moo objects minimally

SYNOPSIS

This:

use Mom;

Is (roughly) a shortcut for:

use Moo;
use Scalar::Util qw( blessed );
use Carp qw( carp croak confess );
use namespace::autoclean;

But Mom takes care of a lot more. This:

use Mom q{ foo bar:rw:type(Int) baz! };

Is (roughly) a shortcut for:

use Moo;
use Scalar::Util qw( blessed );
use Carp qw( carp croak confess );
use Types::Standard qw();
use namespace::autoclean;

has foo => ( is => "ro" );
has bar => ( is => "rw", isa => Types::Standard::Int );
has baz => ( is => "ro", required => 1 );

Tokens which don't start with a colon are created as attributes in your package. Tokens starting with a colon are flags that affect either the preceeding attribute or the package as a whole.

DESCRIPTION

This documentation assumes familiarity with Moo.

Motivation

The documentation for MooX::ShortHas says instead of this:

use Moo;

has hro => is => ro => required => 1;
has hlazy => is => lazy => builder => sub { 2 };
has hrwp => is => rwp => required => 1;
has hrw => is => rw => required => 1;

You can now write this:

use Moo;
use MooX::ShortHas;

ro "hro";
lazy hlazy => sub { 2 };
rwp "hrwp";
rw "hrw";

I thought I could go even shorter.

use Mom q{ hro! hlazy:lazy:default(2) hrwp!:rwp hrw!:rw };

IMPORT

All of Mom's magic happens in the import statement.

Flags Affecting Attributes

:rw

Like is => "rw" in Moo.

:ro

Like is => "ro" in Moo, though this is already the default.

:rwp

Like is => "rwp" in Moo

:bare

Like is => "bare" in Moo

:lazy

Like lazy => 1 in Moo.

:required or :req or !

Like required => 1 in Moo.

:clearer

Like clearer => 1 in Moo.

:clearer(methodname)

Like clearer => "methodname" in Moo.

:builder

Like builder => 1 in Moo.

:builder(methodname)

Like builder => "methodname" in Moo.

:trigger

Like trigger => 1 in Moo.

:trigger(methodname)

Like trigger => "methodname" in Moo.

:isa(Class::Name)

Like isa => InstanceOf[Class::Name] in Moo/Types::Standard.

:does(Role::Name)

Like isa => ConsumerOf[Role::Name] in Moo/Types::Standard.

:type(TypeName)

Like isa => TypeName in Moo/Types::Standard.

:enum(list,of,strings)

Like isa => Enum["list","of","strings"] in Moo/Types::Standard.

:default(value)

Like default => "value" in Moo.

For simple (string/numeric) defaults. Doesn't accept coderefs.

:handles(list,of,methods)

Like handles => ["list","of","methods"] in Moo.

Currently no support for a hashref of delegations.

:handles(1) or :handles(2)

Like MooX::Enumeration.

Flags Affecting Package

:role

Creates a Moo::Role instead of a Moo class.

:extends(Class::Name)

Like extends "Class::Name" in Moo.

:with(Role::Name)

Like with "Role::Name" in Moo.

:requires(list,of,methods)

Like requires ("list", "of", "methods"); in Moo::Role.

:std

Like use Types::Standard qw( -types -is -assert )

:common

Like:

use Types::Common::Numeric qw( -types -is -assert );
use Types::Common::String qw( -types -is -assert );
:path

Like:

use Types::Path::Tiny qw( -types -is -assert );
use Path::Tiny qw( path );
