DESCRIPTION
Bubblegum::Constraints is the standard type-checking library for Bubblegum applications with a focus on minimalism and data integrity. This library derives its type validation from Types::Standard, the Type::Tiny standard library.
By default, no functions are exported when using this package, all functionality desired will need to be explicitly requested, and because many functions belong to a particular group of functions there are export tags which can be used to export sets of functions by group name. Any function can also be exported individually. The following are a list of functions and groups currently available:
-all
The all export group exports all functions from the "-types", "-typesof", "-isas", and "-nots" export groups.
-isas
The isas export group exports all functions which have the isa_ prefix. These functions take a single argument and perform non-fatal type checking and return true or false. The following is a list of functions exported by this group:
