68 While L<Moose> attributes provide you with a way to name your accessors,
69 readers, writers, clearers and predicates, this library provides commonly
70 used attribute helper methods for more specific types of data.
72 As seen in the L</SYNOPSIS>, you specify the extension via the
73 C<metaclass> parameter. Available meta classes are:
77 =item L<Number|MooseX::AttributeHelpers::Number>
79 Common numerical operations.
81 =item L<Counter|MooseX::AttributeHelpers::Counter>
83 Methods for incrementing and decrementing a counter attribute.
85 =item L<Collection::Hash|MooseX::AttributeHelpers::Collection::Hash>
87 Common methods for hash references.
89 =item L<Collection::Array|MooseX::AttributeHelpers::Collection::Array>
91 Common methods for array references.
93 =item L<Collection::List|MooseX::AttributeHelpers::Collection::List>
95 Common list methods for array references.
101 This is an early release of this module. Right now it is in great need
102 of documentation and tests in the test suite. However, we have used this
103 module to great success at C<$work> where it has been tested very thoroughly
104 and deployed into a major production site.
106 I plan on getting better docs and tests in the next few releases, but until
107 then please refer to the few tests we do have and feel free email and/or
108 message me on irc.perl.org if you have any questions.
112 We need tests and docs badly.
116 All complex software has bugs lurking in it, and this module is no
117 exception. If you find a bug please either email me, or add the bug
