Part 5: Types
+
+
A Type System for Perl
+
+
+ - Sort of ...
+ - Variables are not typed
+ - Attributes can have types
+ - MooseX modules let you define method signatures
+
+
+
Components of a Moose Type
+
+
+ - A type is a name and a constraint
+ - Types have a hierarchy
+ - Constraints are cumulative from parents
+ - Types can have associated coercions
+
+
+
Built-in Type Hierarchy
+
+
+Any
+Item
+ Bool
+ Maybe[`a]
+ Undef
+ Defined
+ Value
+ Str
+ Num
+ Int
+ ClassName
+ RoleName
+
+
+
Built-in Type Hierarchy
+
+
+(Item)
+ (Defined)
+ (Value)
+ Ref
+ ScalarRef
+ ArrayRef[`a]
+ HashRef[`a]
+ CodeRef
+ RegexpRef
+ GlobRef
+ FileHandle
+ Object
+
+
+
Bool
+
+
True
+
1
+924.1
+'true'
+{}
+
+
False
+
0
+0.0
+'0'
+undef
+
+
+ - Like Perl's
if ($foo)
+
+
+
Value (and subtypes)
+
+
+ Value is true when ! ref $thingValue and Str are effectively the same, but Str is more expressiveNum is true when a $scalar looks like a number- An overloaded object which numifies does not pass the
Num constraint!
+ - Perl 5's overloading is hopelessly broken
+
+
+
ClassName and RoleName
+
+
+ - A string with a package name
+ - The package must already be loaded
+
+
+
Parameterizable Types
+
+
+ - What does
ArrayRef[`a] mean?
+ s/`a/Int/ (or Str or ...)- When you use it you can write ...
+
+ ArrayRef (== ArrayRef[Item])ArrayRef[Str]ArrayRef[MyTypeName]ArrayRef[HashRef[Maybe[Int]]]
+
+
+
+
Maybe[`a]
+
+
+ - Maybe means either the named type or
undef
+ Maybe[Int] accepts integers or undef
+
+
Type Union
+
+
+ - This or that (or that or ...)
+ Int | ArrayRef[Int]- But use a coercion instead when possible
+ - Or use a
role_type, duck_type, or anything not a union
+ - A union is often a code smell
+
+
+
Making Your Own Types
+
+
use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;
+
+subtype 'PositiveInt',
+ as 'Int',
+ where { $_ > 0 },
+ message
+ { "The value you provided ($_)"
+ . " was not a positive int." };
+
+has size => (
+ is => 'ro',
+ isa => 'PositiveInt',
+);
+
+
Automatic Types
+
+
+ - Moose creates a type for every Moose class and role
+ - Unknown names are assumed to be classes
+
+
+
Automatic Types
+
+
package Employee;
+use Moose;
+
+has manager => (
+ is => 'rw',
+ isa => 'Employee',
+);
+
+has start_date => (
+ is => 'ro',
+ isa => 'DateTime',
+);
+
+
Subtype Shortcuts - class_type
+
+
use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;
+class_type 'DateTime';
+
+subtype 'DateTime',
+ as 'Object',
+ where { $_->isa('DateTime') },
+ message { ... };
+
+
Subtype Shortcuts - role_type
+
+
use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;
+role_type 'Printable';
+
+subtype 'Printable',
+ as 'Object',
+ where
+ { Moose::Util::does_role(
+ $_, 'Printable' ) },
+ message { ... };
+
+
Subtype Shortcuts - duck_type
+
+
use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;
+duck_type Car => qw( run break_down );
+
+subtype 'Car',
+ as 'Object',
+ where { all { $_->can($_) }
+ qw( run break_down ) },
+ message { ... };
+
+
Subtype Shortcuts - enum
+
+
use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;
+enum Color => qw( red blue green ) );
+
+my %ok = map { $_ => 1 }
+ qw( red blue green );
+
+subtype 'Color'
+ as 'Str',
+ where { $ok{$_} },
+ message { ... };
+
+
Anonymous Subtypes
+
+
package Person;
+
+my $posint =
+ subtype as 'Int', where { $_ > 0 };
+
+has size => (
+ is => 'ro',
+ isa => $posint,
+);
+
+
+ - Shortcuts have anonymous forms as well
+
+
+
Coercions
+
+
use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;
+
+subtype 'UCStr',
+ as 'Str',
+ where { ! /[a-z]/ };
+
+
Coercions
+
+
coerce 'UCStr',
+ from 'Str',
+ via { uc };
+
+has shouty_name => (
+ is => 'ro',
+ isa => 'UCStr',
+ coerce => 1,
+);
+
+
Coercion Examples
+
+
subtype 'My::DateTime',
+ as class_type 'DateTime';
+
+coerce 'My::DateTime',
+ from 'HashRef',
+ via { DateTime->new( %{$_} ) };
+
+coerce 'My::DateTime',
+ from 'Int',
+ via { DateTime->from_epoch(
+ epoch => $_ ) };
+
+
+ - Use coercion to inflate a value
+
+
+
Coercion Examples
+
+
coerce 'ArrayRef[Int]',
+ from 'Int',
+ via { [ $_ ] };
+
+
+ - Instead of union -
Int | ArrayRef[Int]
+
+
+
Using Types with Attributes
+
+
package Person;
+
+has height => (
+ is => 'rw',
+ isa => 'Num',
+);
+
+has favorite_numbers => (
+ is => 'rw',
+ isa => 'ArrayRef[Int]',
+ coerce => 1,
+);
+
+
More Droppings
+
+
+ Moose::Util::TypeConstraints also needs cleanup
+
+
package Person;
+
+use Moose;
+use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;
+
+subtype ...;
+
+no Moose;
+no Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;
+
+
Typed Methods (Low-tech)
+
+
package Person;
+use MooseX::Params::Validate qw( validated_list );
+
+sub work {
+ my $self = shift;
+ my ( $tasks, $can_rest ) =
+ validated_list(
+ \@_,
+ tasks =>
+ { isa => 'ArrayRef[Task]',
+ coerce => 1 },
+ can_rest =>
+ { isa => 'Bool',
+ default => 0 },
+ );
+ ...
+}
+
+
Typed Methods (High-tech)
+
+
package Person;
+
+use MooseX::Method::Signatures;
+
+method work ( ArrayRef[Task] :$tasks,
+ Bool :$can_rest = 0 ) {
+ my $self = shift;
+
+ ...
+}
+
+
Digression: The Type Registry
+
+
+ - Types are actually
Moose::Meta::TypeConstraints objects
+ - Stored in an interpreter-global registry mapping names to objects
+
+
+
Danger!
+
+
+ - Coercions are attached to type objects
+ - Therefore also global
+ - Name conflicts between modules!
+ - Coercion conflicts between modules!
+
+
+
Namespace Fix
+
+
+ - Use some sort of pseudo-namespacing scheme
+ - Never coerce directly to a class name, or to built-in types
+
+
+
Namespace Fix
+
+
use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;
+subtype 'MyApp::Type::DateTime',
+ as 'DateTime';
+
+coerce 'MyApp::Type::DateTime',
+ from 'HashRef',
+ via { DateTime->new( %{$_} ) }
+
+has creation_date => (
+ is => 'ro',
+ isa => 'MyApp::Type::DateTime',
+ coerce => 1,
+);
+
+
Namespace Fix
+
+
subtype 'MyApp::Type::ArrayOfInt',
+ as 'ArrayRef[Int]';
+
+coerce 'MyApp::Type::ArrayOfInt',
+ from 'Int',
+ via { [ $_ ] };
+
+
Namespace Fix Pros and Cons
+
+
+ - Relatively simple
+ - Already built into Moose
+ - Conflates type and module namespaces
+ - Type names are strings, so typos are easy to make and may be hard to find
+
+
+
MooseX::Types
+
+
package MyApp::Types;
+
+use MooseX::Types
+ -declare => [ qw( ArrayOfInt ) ];
+use MooseX::Types::Moose
+ qw( ArrayRef Int );
+
+subtype ArrayOfInt,
+ as ArrayRef[Int];
+
+coerce ArrayOfInt
+ from Int,
+ via { [ $_ ] };
+
+
MooseX::Types
+
+
package MyApp::Account;
+
+use MyApp::Types qw( ArrayOfInt );
+
+has transaction_history => (
+ is => 'rw',
+ isa => ArrayOfInt,
+);
+
+
MooseX::Types
+
+
+ - Type names are exported functions, catches typos early
+ - Types must be pre-declared
+ - Types are stored with namespaces internally, but externally are short
+ - Import existing Moose types as functions from
MooseX::Types::Moose
+ - Still need string names for things like
ArrayRef['Email::Address']
+
+
+
MooseX::Types Pros and Cons
+
+
+ - Catches typos at compile time
+ - Automatic namespacing
+ - One more thing to install and learn
+ - Every name gets types twice (declared and then defined)
+ - Still stuck with strings when referring to class or role names
+ - Coercion gotcha from earlier still applies to types exported from
MooseX::Types::Moose
+
+
+
Recommendation
+
+
+ - Use
MooseX::Types
+ - Compile time error catching and automatic namespacing are huge wins
+ - Docs from
Moose::Util::TypeConstraints are 98% compatible with MooseX::Types anyway
+ - A function exported by a type library works wherever a type name would

Notable MX Modules on CPAN
+
+
+ - Not comprehensive
+ - 128 MooseX distributions on CPAN as of 09/24/2009
+ - Some of them are crap
+
+
+
Already Mentioned Several
+
+
+ MooseX::NonMoose - best solution for subclassing non-Moose parentsMooseX::Declare - real Perl 5 OOMooseX::FollowPBP and MooseX::SemiAffordanceAccessorMooseX::Params::Validate and MooseX::Method::SignaturesMooseX::Types
+
+
MooseX::Declare
+
+
use MooseX::Declare;
+use 5.10.0; # for say
+
+class Person {
+ has greeting =>
+ ( is => 'ro', isa => 'Str' );
+
+ method speak {
+ say $self->greeting;
+ }
+}
+
+
MooseX::Declare
+
+
+ - Still experimental-ish, but seeing more and more use
+ - Not a source filter!
+ - Hooks into the Perl parser rather than filtering all your code
+ - But not supported by
PPI, perltidy, etc. (yet?)
+
+
MooseX::StrictConstructor
+
+
+ - By default, unknown constructor arguments are ignored
+ - MX::StrictConstructor turns these into an error
+
+
+
MooseX::StrictConstructor
+
+

+has name => ( is => 'ro' );
+
+Person->new
+ ( nane => 'Ringo Shiina' ); # kaboom
+
+
MooseX::Traits
+
+
+ - Combines object construction and role application
+ - Makes it easy to create one-off customized objects
+

+

+
+with 'MooseX::Traits';
+
+my $thing =
+ MyApp::Thingy->new_with_traits
+ ( traits => [ 'Foo', 'Bar' ],
+ size => 42 );
+
+
MooseX::Getopt
+
+
+ - Makes command-line interface programs easy!
+ - Construct an object from CLI arguments
+
+
+
MooseX::Getopt
+
+
package App::CLI;
+use Moose;

+sub run { ... }
+
+
MooseX::Getopt
+
+
+ - Then call it like this:
