=head1 NAME

Moose::Util::TypeConstraints - Type constraint system for Moose

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;

  type 'Num' => where { Scalar::Util::looks_like_number($_) };
  
  subtype 'Natural' 
      => as 'Num' 
      => where { $_ > 0 };
  
  subtype 'NaturalLessThanTen' 
      => as 'Natural'
      => where { $_ < 10 }
      => message { "This number ($_) is not less than ten!" };
      
  coerce 'Num' 
      => from 'Str'
        => via { 0+$_ }; 
        
  enum 'RGBColors' => qw(red green blue);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides Moose with the ability to create type contraints 
to be are used in both attribute definitions and for method argument 
validation. 

=head2 Important Caveat

This is B<NOT> a type system for Perl 5. These are type constraints, 
and they are not used by Moose unless you tell it to. No type 
inference is performed, expression are not typed, etc. etc. etc. 

This is simply a means of creating small constraint functions which 
can be used to simplify your own type-checking code.

=head2 Slightly Less Important Caveat

It is almost always a good idea to quote your type and subtype names. 
This is to prevent perl from trying to execute the call as an indirect 
object call. This issue only seems to come up when you have a subtype
the same name as a valid class, but when the issue does arise it tends 
to be quite annoying to debug. 

So for instance, this:
  
  subtype DateTime => as Object => where { $_->isa('DateTime') };

will I<Just Work>, while this:

  use DateTime;
  subtype DateTime => as Object => where { $_->isa('DateTime') };

will fail silently and cause many headaches. The simple way to solve 
this, as well as future proof your subtypes from classes which have 
yet to have been created yet, is to simply do this:

  use DateTime;
  subtype 'DateTime' => as Object => where { $_->isa('DateTime') };

=head2 Default Type Constraints

This module also provides a simple hierarchy for Perl 5 types, this 
could probably use some work, but it works for me at the moment.

  Any
  Item 
      Bool
      Undef
      Defined
          Value
              Num
                Int
              Str
          Ref
              ScalarRef
              ArrayRef
              HashRef
              CodeRef
              RegexpRef
              GlobRef
                FileHandle
              Object	
                  Role

Suggestions for improvement are welcome.

B<NOTE:> The C<Undef> type constraint does not work correctly 
in every occasion, please use it sparringly.

=head2 Use with Other Constraint Modules

This module should play fairly nicely with other constraint 
modules with only some slight tweaking. The C<where> clause 
in types is expected to be a C<CODE> reference which checks
it's first argument and returns a bool. Since most constraint
modules work in a similar way, it should be simple to adapt 
them to work with Moose.

For instance, this is how you could use it with 
L<Declare::Constraint::Simple> to declare a completely new type. 

  type 'HashOfArrayOfObjects' 
      => IsHashRef(
          -keys   => HasLength,
          -values => IsArrayRef( IsObject ));

For more examples see the F<t/204_example_w_DCS.t> test file.

Here is an example of using L<Test::Deep> and it's non-test 
related C<eq_deeply> function. 

  type 'ArrayOfHashOfBarsAndRandomNumbers' 
      => where {
          eq_deeply($_, 
              array_each(subhashof({
                  bar           => isa('Bar'),
                  random_number => ignore()
              }))) 
        };

For a complete example see the F<t/205_example_w_TestDeep.t> 
test file.    
    
=head1 FUNCTIONS

=head2 Type Constraint Registry

=over 4

=item B<find_type_constraint ($type_name)>

This function can be used to locate a specific type constraint 
meta-object. What you do with it from there is up to you :)

=item B<create_type_constraint_union (@type_constraint_names)>

Given a list of C<@type_constraint_names>, this will return a 
B<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint::Union> instance.

=item B<export_type_contstraints_as_functions>

This will export all the current type constraints as functions 
into the caller's namespace. Right now, this is mostly used for 
testing, but it might prove useful to others.

=back

=head2 Type Constraint Constructors

The following functions are used to create type constraints. 
They will then register the type constraints in a global store 
where Moose can get to them if it needs to. 

See the L<SYNOPOSIS> for an example of how to use these.

=over 4

=item B<type ($name, $where_clause)>

This creates a base type, which has no parent. 

=item B<subtype ($name, $parent, $where_clause, ?$message)>

This creates a named subtype. 

=item B<subtype ($parent, $where_clause, ?$message)>

This creates an unnamed subtype and will return the type 
constraint meta-object, which will be an instance of 
L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint>. 

=item B<enum ($name, @values)>

This will create a basic subtype for a given set of strings. 
The resulting constraint will be a subtype of C<Str> and 
will match any of the items in C<@values>. See the L<SYNOPSIS> 
for a simple example.

B<NOTE:> This is not a true proper enum type, it is simple 
a convient constraint builder.

=item B<as>

This is just sugar for the type constraint construction syntax.

=item B<where>

This is just sugar for the type constraint construction syntax.

=item B<message>

This is just sugar for the type constraint construction syntax.

=item B<optimize_as>

=back

=head2 Type Coercion Constructors

Type constraints can also contain type coercions as well. If you 
ask your accessor too coerce, the Moose will run the type-coercion 
code first, followed by the type constraint check. This feature 
should be used carefully as it is very powerful and could easily 
take off a limb if you are not careful.

See the L<SYNOPOSIS> for an example of how to use these.

=over 4

=item B<coerce>

=item B<from>

This is just sugar for the type coercion construction syntax.

=item B<via>

This is just sugar for the type coercion construction syntax.

=back

=head2 Namespace Management

=over 4

=item B<unimport>

This will remove all the type constraint keywords from the 
calling class namespace.

=back

exception. If you find a bug please either email me, or add the bug
