NAME

MoopsX::UsingMoose - A Moops that uses Moose

Requires Perl 5.14+ Travis status Distribution kwalitee CPAN Testers result coverage 97.4%

VERSION

Version 0.0103, released 2020-07-29.

SYNOPSIS

class My::Class {
# A Moose based class
}

STATUS

Do note the inherent issues with using Moops.

DESCRIPTION

This is a thin wrapper around Moops that automatically adds using Moose to role and class statements. It does this by applying the included MoopsX::TraitFor::Parser::UsingMoose Moops::Parser trait.

Rationale

While this on the surface doesn't save any keystrokes it reduces cluttering of role/class statements. Consider the following:

use Moops;
class My::Project::Class
types Types::Standard,
Types::Path::Tiny,
Types::MyCustomTypes
with This::Role
using Moose {
# A Moose based class
}

That is not very nice.

The first step is to get rid of using Moose:

class My::Project::Class
types Types::Standard,
Types::Path::Tiny,
Types::MyCustomTypes
with This::Role {
# A Moose based class
}

A minor improvement.

However, create a project specific Moops wrapper:

sub import {
my $class = shift;
my %opts = @_;
push @{ $opts{'imports'} ||= [] } => (
'Types::Standard' => ['-types'],
'Types::Path::Tiny' => ['-types'],
'Types::MyCustomTypes' => ['-types'],
);
$class->SUPER::import(%opts);
}

And the class statement becomes:

class My::Project::Class with This::Role {
# A Moose based class, still with all the types
}

Happiness ensues.
