NAME

Type::Coercion - a set of coercions to a particular target type constraint

DESCRIPTION

Constructor

new(%attributes)

Moose-style constructor function.

Attributes

type_constraint

Weak reference to the target type constraint (i.e. the type constraint which the output of coercion coderefs is expected to conform to).

type_coercion_map

Arrayref of source-type/coercion-coderef pairs. Don't set this in the constructor; use the add_type_coercions method instead.

moose_coercion

A Moose::Meta::TypeCoercion object equivalent to this one. Don't set this manually; rely on the default built one.

Methods

has_type_constraint

Predicate method.

add_type_coercions($type1, $code1, ...)

Takes one or more pairs of Type::Tiny objects and coderefs, creating an ordered list of source types and coercion coderefs.

coerce($value)

Coerce the value to the target type.

assert_coerce($value)

Coerce the value to the target type, and throw an exception if the result does not validate against the target type constraint.

has_coercion_for_type($source_type)

Not implemented yet.

has_coercion_for_value($value)

Returns true iff the value could be coerced by this coercion.
