DESCRIPTION

When a test package uses workflows it needs a place to hold the primary unit. This meta-data holds the primary unit for test packages. It also takes care of ensuring they get run at the correct times.

METHODS

CLASS METHODS

$meta = $CLASS->build($pkg, $file, $start_line, $end_line)

Create a meta-instance for the specified package. If one already exists it will return the existing one instead, ignoring all arguments other than $pkg.

$meta = $CLASS->get($pkg)

Get the existing meta-instance for the specified package. This will return undef if none exists.

$meta = $CLASS->purge($pkg)

Delete the meta-instance for the specified package. The instance will be returned, but will no longer be tied to the package.

OBJECT METHODS

$unit = $meta->unit
$meta->set_unit($unit)

Get/Set the associated unit (Test::Stream::Workflow::Unit).

$runner = $meta->runner
$meta->set_runner($runner)

Get/Set the runner to use (Test::Stream::Workflow::Runner).

$ar = $meta->runner_args
$meta->set_runner_args([...])

Get/Set the args arrayref to be passed to the runner.

$bool = $meta->autorun
$meta->set_autorun($bool)

Defaults to true. Set this to 0 to turn off automatic running of the workflow.

$meta->run()

Run the workflow.

$meta->purge()

Remove the meta object from the package it was created for.
