c0e30cf5 1282=head1 DESCRIPTION
1283
93a708fd 1284This class is a subclass of L<Class::MOP::Attribute> that provides
1285additional Moose-specific functionality.
6ba6d68c 1286
7854b409 1287To really understand this class, you will need to start with the
1288L<Class::MOP::Attribute> documentation. This class can be understood
1289as a set of additional features on top of the basic feature provided
1290by that parent class.
e522431d 1291
d4b1449e 1292=head1 INHERITANCE
1293
1294C<Moose::Meta::Attribute> is a subclass of L<Class::MOP::Attribute>.
1295
c0e30cf5 1296=head1 METHODS
1297
93a708fd 1298Many of the documented below override methods in
1299L<Class::MOP::Attribute> and add Moose specific features.
6ba6d68c 1300
93a708fd 1301=head2 Creation
6ba6d68c 1302
c0e30cf5 1303=over 4
1304
93a708fd 1305=item B<< Moose::Meta::Attribute->new(%options) >>
c0e30cf5 1306
93a708fd 1307This method overrides the L<Class::MOP::Attribute> constructor.
c32c2c61 1308
93a708fd 1309Many of the options below are described in more detail in the
1310L<Moose::Manual::Attributes> document.
6e2840b7 1311
93a708fd 1312It adds the following options to the constructor:
d500266f 1313
93a708fd 1314=over 8
452bac1b 1315
996b8c8d 1316=item * is => 'ro', 'rw', 'bare'
e1d6f0a3 1317
93a708fd 1318This provides a shorthand for specifying the C<reader>, C<writer>, or
1319C<accessor> names. If the attribute is read-only ('ro') then it will
1320have a C<reader> method with the same attribute as the name.
e606ae5f 1321
93a708fd 1322If it is read-write ('rw') then it will have an C<accessor> method
1323with the same name. If you provide an explicit C<writer> for a
1324read-write attribute, then you will have a C<reader> with the same
1325name as the attribute, and a C<writer> with the name you provided.
e1d6f0a3 1326
996b8c8d 1327Use 'bare' when you are deliberately not installing any methods
1328(accessor, reader, etc.) associated with this attribute; otherwise,
1329Moose will issue a deprecation warning when this attribute is added to a
9340e346 1330metaclass.
996b8c8d 1331
93a708fd 1332=item * isa => $type
39b3bc94 1333
93a708fd 1334This option accepts a type. The type can be a string, which should be
1335a type name. If the type name is unknown, it is assumed to be a class
1336name.
1337
1338This option can also accept a L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint> object.
1339
1340If you I<also> provide a C<does> option, then your C<isa> option must
1341be a class name, and that class must do the role specified with
1342C<does>.
1343
1344=item * does => $role
1345
1346This is short-hand for saying that the attribute's type must be an
1347object which does the named role.
1348
1349=item * coerce => $bool
1350
1351This option is only valid for objects with a type constraint
3b98ba07 1352(C<isa>) that defined a coercion. If this is true, then coercions will be applied whenever
93a708fd 1353this attribute is set.
1354
1355You can make both this and the C<weak_ref> option true.
1356
1357=item * trigger => $sub
1358
1359This option accepts a subroutine reference, which will be called after
1360the attribute is set.
1361
1362=item * required => $bool
1363
1364An attribute which is required must be provided to the constructor. An
1365attribute which is required can also have a C<default> or C<builder>,
36741534 1366which will satisfy its required-ness.
93a708fd 1367
1368A required attribute must have a C<default>, C<builder> or a
1369non-C<undef> C<init_arg>
1370
1371=item * lazy => $bool
1372
1373A lazy attribute must have a C<default> or C<builder>. When an
1374attribute is lazy, the default value will not be calculated until the
1375attribute is read.
1376
1377=item * weak_ref => $bool
1378
1379If this is true, the attribute's value will be stored as a weak
1380reference.
1381
1382=item * auto_deref => $bool
1383
1384If this is true, then the reader will dereference the value when it is
1385called. The attribute must have a type constraint which defines the
1386attribute as an array or hash reference.
1387
1388=item * lazy_build => $bool
1389
1390Setting this to true makes the attribute lazy and provides a number of
1391default methods.
1392
1393 has 'size' => (
1394 is => 'ro',
1395 lazy_build => 1,
1396 );
1397
1398is equivalent to this:
1399
1400 has 'size' => (
1401 is => 'ro',
1402 lazy => 1,
1403 builder => '_build_size',
1404 clearer => 'clear_size',
1405 predicate => 'has_size',
1406 );
1407
970a92fa 1408
1409If your attribute name starts with an underscore (C<_>), then the clearer
1410and predicate will as well:
1411
1412 has '_size' => (
1413 is => 'ro',
1414 lazy_build => 1,
1415 );
1416
1417becomes:
1418
1419 has '_size' => (
1420 is => 'ro',
1421 lazy => 1,
1422 builder => '_build__size',
1423 clearer => '_clear_size',
1424 predicate => '_has_size',
1425 );
1426
1427Note the doubled underscore in the builder name. Internally, Moose
1428simply prepends the attribute name with "_build_" to come up with the
1429builder name.
1430

1434$attr->documentation >>.
1435
1436=back
1437
1438=item B<< $attr->clone(%options) >>
1439
1440This creates a new attribute based on attribute being cloned. You must
1441supply a C<name> option to provide a new name for the attribute.
1442
1443The C<%options> can only specify options handled by
1444L<Class::MOP::Attribute>.

1451
93a708fd 1452=item B<< $attr->initialize_instance_slot($meta_instance, $instance, $params) >>
1453
1454This method is used internally to initialize the attribute's slot in
1455the object C<$instance>.
1456
1457This overrides the L<Class::MOP::Attribute> method to handle lazy
1458attributes, weak references, and type constraints.

1467 }
1468
6549b0d1 1469I<Attribute (x) does not pass the type constraint (Int) with 'forty-two'>
bcbaa845 1470
1471Before setting the value, a check is made on the type constraint of
1472the attribute, if it has one, to see if the value passes it. If the
cec39889 1473value fails to pass, the set operation dies with a L</throw_error>.
bcbaa845 1474
1475Any coercion to convert values is done before checking the type constraint.
1476
1477To check a value against a type constraint before setting it, fetch the
ec00fa75 1478attribute instance using L<Class::MOP::Class/find_attribute_by_name>,
bcbaa845 1479fetch the type_constraint from the attribute using L<Moose::Meta::Attribute/type_constraint>
e606ae5f 1480and call L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint/check>. See L<Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe4>
bcbaa845 1481for an example.

93a708fd 1491This method overrides the parent to also install delegation methods.
be05faea 1492
7a582117 1493If, after installing all methods, the attribute object has no associated
1494methods, it throws an error unless C<< is => 'bare' >> was passed to the
1495attribute constructor. (Trying to add an attribute that has no associated
1496methods is almost always an error.)

36741534 1498=item B<< $attr->remove_accessors >>
d5c30e52 1499
93a708fd 1500This method overrides the parent to also remove delegation methods.

e06951bb 1502=item B<< $attr->inline_set($instance_var, $value_var) >>
d67398ab 1503
e06951bb 1504This method return a code snippet suitable for inlining the relevant
1505operation. It expect strings containing variable names to be used in the
1506inlining, like C<'$self'> or C<'$_[1]'>.
d67398ab 1507
93a708fd 1508=item B<< $attr->install_delegation >>
1509
1510This method adds its delegation methods to the attribute's associated
1511class, if it has any to add.
1512
1513=item B<< $attr->remove_delegation >>
1514
1515This method remove its delegation methods from the attribute's
1516associated class.
d5c30e52 1517
93a708fd 1518=item B<< $attr->accessor_metaclass >>
9e93dd19 1519
93a708fd 1520Returns the accessor metaclass name, which defaults to
1521L<Moose::Meta::Method::Accessor>.
1522
1523=item B<< $attr->delegation_metaclass >>
1524
1525Returns the delegation metaclass name, which defaults to
1526L<Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation>.

1532These methods are not found in the superclass. They support features
1533provided by Moose.

1536
93a708fd 1537=item B<< $attr->does($role) >>
1538
1539This indicates whether the I<attribute itself> does the given
36741534 1540role. The role can be given as a full class name, or as a resolvable
93a708fd 1541trait name.
1542
1543Note that this checks the attribute itself, not its type constraint,
1544so it is checking the attribute's metaclass and any traits applied to
1545the attribute.
1546
1547=item B<< Moose::Meta::Class->interpolate_class_and_new($name, %options) >>
1548
1549This is an alternate constructor that handles the C<metaclass> and
1550C<traits> options.
9e93dd19 1551
93a708fd 1552Effectively, this method is a factory that finds or creates the
36741534 1553appropriate class for the given C<metaclass> and/or C<traits>.
e606ae5f 1554
93a708fd 1555Once it has the appropriate class, it will call C<< $class->new($name,
1556%options) >> on that class.
e606ae5f 1557
93a708fd 1558=item B<< $attr->clone_and_inherit_options(%options) >>
a15dff8d 1559
93a708fd 1560This method supports the C<has '+foo'> feature. It does various bits
1561of processing on the supplied C<%options> before ultimately calling
1562the C<clone> method.
6ba6d68c 1563
93a708fd 1564One of its main tasks is to make sure that the C<%options> provided
7782e1da 1565does not include the options returned by the
1566C<illegal_options_for_inheritance> method.
a15dff8d 1567
7782e1da 1568=item B<< $attr->illegal_options_for_inheritance >>
a15dff8d 1569
7782e1da 1570This returns a blacklist of options that can not be overridden in a
93a708fd 1571subclass's attribute definition.
2b86e02b 1572
93a708fd 1573This exists to allow a custom metaclass to change or add to the list
7782e1da 1574of options which can not be changed.
2b86e02b 1575
93a708fd 1576=item B<< $attr->type_constraint >>
452bac1b 1577
93a708fd 1578Returns the L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint> object for this attribute,
1579if it has one.
452bac1b 1580
93a708fd 1581=item B<< $attr->has_type_constraint >>
452bac1b 1582
93a708fd 1583Returns true if this attribute has a type constraint.
452bac1b 1584
93a708fd 1585=item B<< $attr->verify_against_type_constraint($value) >>
a15dff8d 1586
93a708fd 1587Given a value, this method returns true if the value is valid for the
1588attribute's type constraint. If the value is not valid, it throws an
1589error.
4b598ea3 1590
93a708fd 1591=item B<< $attr->handles >>
ca01a97b 1592
93a708fd 1593This returns the value of the C<handles> option passed to the
1594constructor.
ca01a97b 1595
93a708fd 1596=item B<< $attr->has_handles >>
ca01a97b 1597
93a708fd 1598Returns true if this attribute performs delegation.

93a708fd 1612=item B<< $attr->is_lazy_build >>
ca01a97b 1613
93a708fd 1614Returns true if the C<lazy_build> option was true when passed to the
1615constructor.
