NAME

MooseX::Storage::Engine - The meta-engine to handle collapsing and expanding objects

DESCRIPTION

There really aren't any major user serviceable parts here. However the typical use case is adding new non-Moose classes to the type registry for serialization. Here is an example of this for DateTime objects. This assumes a DateTime type has been registered.

MooseX::Storage::Engine->add_custom_type_handler(
    'DateTime' => (
        expand   => sub { DateTime->new(shift) },
        collapse => sub { (shift)->iso8601 },
    )
);
