NAME

Git::PurePerl::Walker::Role::HasRepo - An entity that has a repo

VERSION

version 0.001000

DESCRIPTION

This is a composition role consumed by other roles to provide them with a private repo property.

This role also folds in MooseX::Clone and provides the 'for_repository' method which sets the repo property.

package Foo {
	use Moose;
	with 'Git::PurePerl::Walker::Role::HasRepo';
	__PACKAGE__->meta->make_immutable;
}

my $factory = Foo->new( %args );

my $instance = $factory->for_repository( $Git_PurePerl_Repo );

METHODS

for_repository

Construct an entity for a given repository.

This internally calls MooseX::Clone on the current object, passing the _repo field to its constructor, producing a seperate, disconnected object to work with.

The rationale behind this is simple: Its very likely users will want one set of settings for a consuming class, but they'll want to use those same settings with multiple repositories.

And as each repository will need to maintain its own state for traversal, they have to normally manually construct an object for each repository, manually disconnecting the constructor arugments.

This instead is simple:

my $thing = Thing->new( %args );
my ( @foos  ) = map { $thing->for_repository( $_ ) } @repos;

And now all @foos can be mangled independently.
