NAME

Valiant::Filter::Numberize - Force into number context

SYNOPSIS

package Local::Test::User;

use Moo;
use Valiant::Filters;

has 'age' => (is=>'ro', required=>1);

filters age => (
  numberize => 1,
);

my $user = Local::Test::User->new(age=>'25');
print $user->age; # 25

my $not_a_number = Local::Test::User(age=>'aaaabbbccc');
print $not_a_number; # 0

DESCRIPTION

This is a very simple filter that takes no paramters and just forces a value into number context. Please note that this mean strings with letters and other non number values will almost always end up as 0 without returning any validation errors. If you want to notice and handle this as a validation then you might want to check Valiant::Validator::Numericality instead,
