SYNOPSIS

use Sub::MicroSig;

sub pow :sig($x $pow; $trunc) {
  my $arg = shift;
  my $value = $arg->{x} ** $arg->{pow};

  $value = int $value if $arg->{trunc};
}

...

pow({ pow => 2, x => 4 }); # 64
pow([ 2, 0.5, 1 ]);        #  1 # int(sqrt(2))

DESCRIPTION

This module allows you to give subroutine a signature using Params::Validate::Micro.

USAGE

To provide a signature to a subroutine, provide the attribute :Sig(), enclosing in the parentheses a valid Params::Validate::Micro argument string.

The routine will be wrapped so that its parameters are rewritten into the result of calling micro_validate on its passed arguments. If more than one argument is passed, or if the one passed argument is not an array or hash reference, an exception is thrown by Sub::MicroSig.

The the given arguments cannot be validated according to the micro-argument string, Params::Validate throws an exception.
