NAME

MooseX::Types::Time::Piece - Time::Piece type and coercions for Moose

SYNOPSIS

package Foo;

use Moose;
use MooseX::Types::Time::Piece qw( Time Duration );

has 'time' => (
    is      => 'rw',
    isa     => Time,
    coerce  => 1,
);

has 'duration' => (
    is      => 'rw',
    isa     => Duration,
    coerce  => 1,
);

# ...

my $f = Foo->new;
$f->time( Time::Piece->new )            # no coercion
$f->time( time() );                     # coerce from Num
$f->time( '2012-12-31T23:59:59' );      # coerce from Str
$f->time( ['2012-12-31', '%Y-%m-%d'] ); # coerce from ArrayRef
$f->duration( Time::Seconds::ONE_DAY * 2 );

DESCRIPTION

This module provides Moose type constraints and coercions for using Time::Piece objects as Moose attributes.

EXPORTS

The following type constants provided by MooseX::Types must be explicitly imported. The full class name may also be used (as strings with quotes) without importing the constant declarations.

Time

A class type for Time::Piece.

coerce from Num

The number is interpreted as the seconds since the system epoch as accepted by localtime().

coerce from Str

The string is expected to be in ISO 8601 date/time format, e.g. '2012-12-31T23:59:59'. See also "YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss" in Time::Piece.

coerce from ArrayRef

The arrayref is expected to contain 2 string values, the time and the time format, as accepted by strptime().

An exception is thrown during coercion if the given time does not match the expected/given format, or the given time or format is invalid.

Duration

A class type for Time::Seconds.

coerce from Num

The number is interpreted as seconds in duration.
