NAME
MouseX::NativeTraits::Counter - Helper trait for counter attributes
SYNOPSIS
package MyHomePage;
use Mouse;
has 'counter' => (
traits => ['Counter'],
is => 'ro',
isa => 'Num',
default => 0,
handles => {
inc_counter => 'inc',
dec_counter => 'dec',
reset_counter => 'reset',
},
);
my $page = MyHomePage->new();
$page->inc_counter; # same as $page->counter( $page->counter + 1 );
$page->dec_counter; # same as $page->counter( $page->counter - 1 );DESCRIPTION
This module provides a simple counter attribute, which can be incremented and decremented.
If your attribute definition does not include any of is, isa, default or handles but does use the Counter trait, then this module applies defaults as in the "SYNOPSIS" above. This allows for a very basic counter definition:
has 'foo' => (traits => ['Counter']);
$obj->inc_foo;PROVIDED METHODS
