bedd575c 463Mouse::Meta::Attribute - The Mouse attribute metaclass
c3398f5b 464
a25ca8d6 465=head1 VERSION
466
06a970ab 467This document describes Mouse version 0.38
a25ca8d6 468
c3398f5b 469=head1 METHODS
470
1820fffe 471=head2 C<< new(%options) -> Mouse::Meta::Attribute >>
c3398f5b 472
306290e8 473Instantiates a new Mouse::Meta::Attribute. Does nothing else.
c3398f5b 474
1820fffe 475It adds the following options to the constructor:
c3398f5b 476
1820fffe 477=over 4
c3398f5b 478
612d3e1a 479=item C<< is => 'ro', 'rw', 'bare' >>
c3398f5b 480
1820fffe 481This provides a shorthand for specifying the C<reader>, C<writer>, or
482C<accessor> names. If the attribute is read-only ('ro') then it will
483have a C<reader> method with the same attribute as the name.
c3398f5b 484
1820fffe 485If it is read-write ('rw') then it will have an C<accessor> method
486with the same name. If you provide an explicit C<writer> for a
487read-write attribute, then you will have a C<reader> with the same
488name as the attribute, and a C<writer> with the name you provided.
c3398f5b 489
1820fffe 490Use 'bare' when you are deliberately not installing any methods
491(accessor, reader, etc.) associated with this attribute; otherwise,
492Moose will issue a deprecation warning when this attribute is added to a
493metaclass.
c3398f5b 494
612d3e1a 495=item C<< isa => Type >>
ab27a55e 496
1820fffe 497This option accepts a type. The type can be a string, which should be
498a type name. If the type name is unknown, it is assumed to be a class
499name.
ab27a55e 500
1820fffe 501This option can also accept a L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint> object.
ab27a55e 502
1820fffe 503If you I<also> provide a C<does> option, then your C<isa> option must
504be a class name, and that class must do the role specified with
505C<does>.
ab27a55e 506
612d3e1a 507=item C<< does => Role >>
ab27a55e 508
1820fffe 509This is short-hand for saying that the attribute's type must be an
510object which does the named role.
c3398f5b 511
1820fffe 512B<This option is not yet supported.>
c3398f5b 513
612d3e1a 514=item C<< coerce => Bool >>
ab27a55e 515
1820fffe 516This option is only valid for objects with a type constraint
517(C<isa>). If this is true, then coercions will be applied whenever
518this attribute is set.
c3398f5b 519
1820fffe 520You can make both this and the C<weak_ref> option true.
c3398f5b 521
612d3e1a 522=item C<< trigger => CodeRef >>
ab27a55e 523
1820fffe 524This option accepts a subroutine reference, which will be called after
525the attribute is set.
ab27a55e 526
612d3e1a 527=item C<< required => Bool >>
ab27a55e 528
1820fffe 529An attribute which is required must be provided to the constructor. An
530attribute which is required can also have a C<default> or C<builder>,
531which will satisfy its required-ness.
ab27a55e 532
1820fffe 533A required attribute must have a C<default>, C<builder> or a
534non-C<undef> C<init_arg>
ab27a55e 535
612d3e1a 536=item C<< lazy => Bool >>
ab27a55e 537
1820fffe 538A lazy attribute must have a C<default> or C<builder>. When an
539attribute is lazy, the default value will not be calculated until the
540attribute is read.
93f08899 541
612d3e1a 542=item C<< weak_ref => Bool >>
0fff36e6 543
1820fffe 544If this is true, the attribute's value will be stored as a weak
545reference.
c3398f5b 546
612d3e1a 547=item C<< auto_deref => Bool >>
fb706f5c 548
1820fffe 549If this is true, then the reader will dereference the value when it is
550called. The attribute must have a type constraint which defines the
551attribute as an array or hash reference.
552
612d3e1a 553=item C<< lazy_build => Bool >>
1820fffe 554
555Setting this to true makes the attribute lazy and provides a number of
556default methods.
fb706f5c 557
1820fffe 558 has 'size' => (
559 is => 'ro',
560 lazy_build => 1,
561 );
93d190e0 562
1820fffe 563is equivalent to this:
93d190e0 564
1820fffe 565 has 'size' => (
566 is => 'ro',
567 lazy => 1,
568 builder => '_build_size',
569 clearer => 'clear_size',
570 predicate => 'has_size',
571 );
93d190e0 572
1820fffe 573=back
574
31c5194b 575=head2 C<< associate_method(Method) >>
576
577Associates a method with the attribute. Typically, this is called internally
578when an attribute generates its accessors.
579
580Currently the argument I<Method> is ignored in Mouse.
581
1820fffe 582=head2 C<< verify_against_type_constraint(Item) -> TRUE | ERROR >>
583
584Checks that the given value passes this attribute's type constraint. Returns C<true>
585on success, otherwise C<confess>es.
93d190e0 586
1820fffe 587=head2 C<< clone_and_inherit_options(options) -> Mouse::Meta::Attribute >>
f7b11a21 588
612d3e1a 589Creates a new attribute in the owner class, inheriting options from parent classes.
f7b11a21 590Accessors and helper methods are installed. Some error checking is done.
591
9ae9702e 592=head2 C<< get_read_method_ref >>
593
594=head2 C<< get_write_method_ref >>
595
596Returns the subroutine reference of a method suitable for reading or
597writing the attribute's value in the associated class. These methods
598always return a subroutine reference, regardless of whether or not the
df77fd72 599attribute is read- or write-only.
