NAME

MooseX::GlobRef::Object - Store a Moose object in glob reference

SYNOPSIS

package My::IO;

use Moose;

extends 'MooseX::GlobRef::Object';

has 'filename' => ( is => 'ro', isa => 'Str', required => 1 );

sub open {
  my $fh = shift;
  my $hashref = ${*$fh};
  open $fh, $hashref->{filename} or confess "cannot open";
  return $fh;
}

sub getlines {
  my $fh = shift;
  return readline $fh;
}

my $io = My::IO->new( filename=>'/etc/passwd' );
print "::::::::::::::\n";
print $io->filename, "\n";
print "::::::::::::::\n";
$io->open;
print $io->getlines;

DESCRIPTION

This meta-policy allows to store Moose object in glob reference or file handle. The class attributes will be stored in anonymous hash associated with glob reference. It allows to create a Moose version of IO::Handle.

The elements of hash can be accessed with ${*$self}->{key} expression.

You can use MooseX::GlobRef::Meta::Instance metaclass directly if you need more customised configuration.
