package Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe11; # ABSTRACT: Extending a non-Moose base class __END__ =pod =begin testing-SETUP use Test::Requires { 'DateTime' => '0', 'DateTime::Calendar::Mayan' => '0', 'MooseX::NonMoose' => '0', }; =end testing-SETUP =head1 SYNOPSIS package My::DateTime; use Moose; use MooseX::NonMoose; extends qw( DateTime ); has 'mayan_date' => ( is => 'ro', isa => 'DateTime::Calendar::Mayan', init_arg => undef, lazy => 1, builder => '_build_mayan_date', clearer => '_clear_mayan_date', predicate => 'has_mayan_date', ); sub new { my $class = shift; my $obj = $class->SUPER::new(@_); return $class->meta->new_object( __INSTANCE__ => $obj, @_, ); } after 'set' => sub { $_[0]->_clear_mayan_date; }; sub _build_mayan_date { DateTime::Calendar::Mayan->from_object( object => $_[0] ); } =head1 DESCRIPTION This recipe demonstrates how to use Moose to subclass a parent which is not Moose based. This recipe only works if the parent class uses a blessed hash reference for object instances. If your parent is doing something funkier, you should check out L and L. The meat of this recipe is contained in L, which does all the grunt work for you. =begin testing my $dt = My::DateTime->new( year => 1970, month => 2, day => 24 ); can_ok( $dt, 'mayan_date' ); isa_ok( $dt->mayan_date, 'DateTime::Calendar::Mayan' ); is( $dt->mayan_date->date, '12.17.16.9.19', 'got expected mayan date' ); $dt->set( year => 2009 ); ok( ! $dt->has_mayan_date, 'mayan_date is cleared after call to ->set' ); =end testing =cut
