=head1 NAME

Mouse::Meta::Attribute - The Mouse attribute metaclass

=head1 VERSION

This document describes Mouse version 0.43

=head1 METHODS

=head2 C<< new(%options) -> Mouse::Meta::Attribute >>

Instantiates a new Mouse::Meta::Attribute. Does nothing else.

It adds the following options to the constructor:

=over 4

=item C<< is => 'ro', 'rw', 'bare' >>

This provides a shorthand for specifying the C<reader>, C<writer>, or
C<accessor> names. If the attribute is read-only ('ro') then it will
have a C<reader> method with the same attribute as the name.

If it is read-write ('rw') then it will have an C<accessor> method
with the same name. If you provide an explicit C<writer> for a
read-write attribute, then you will have a C<reader> with the same
name as the attribute, and a C<writer> with the name you provided.

Use 'bare' when you are deliberately not installing any methods
(accessor, reader, etc.) associated with this attribute; otherwise,
Moose will issue a deprecation warning when this attribute is added to a
metaclass.

=item C<< isa => Type >>

This option accepts a type. The type can be a string, which should be
a type name. If the type name is unknown, it is assumed to be a class
name.

This option can also accept a L<Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint> object.

If you I<also> provide a C<does> option, then your C<isa> option must
be a class name, and that class must do the role specified with
C<does>.

=item C<< does => Role >>

This is short-hand for saying that the attribute's type must be an
object which does the named role.

B<This option is not yet supported.>

=item C<< coerce => Bool >>

This option is only valid for objects with a type constraint
(C<isa>). If this is true, then coercions will be applied whenever
this attribute is set.

You can make both this and the C<weak_ref> option true.

=item C<< trigger => CodeRef >>

This option accepts a subroutine reference, which will be called after
the attribute is set.

=item C<< required => Bool >>

An attribute which is required must be provided to the constructor. An
attribute which is required can also have a C<default> or C<builder>,
which will satisfy its required-ness.

A required attribute must have a C<default>, C<builder> or a
non-C<undef> C<init_arg>

=item C<< lazy => Bool >>

A lazy attribute must have a C<default> or C<builder>. When an
attribute is lazy, the default value will not be calculated until the
attribute is read.

=item C<< weak_ref => Bool >>

If this is true, the attribute's value will be stored as a weak
reference.

=item C<< auto_deref => Bool >>

If this is true, then the reader will dereference the value when it is
called. The attribute must have a type constraint which defines the
attribute as an array or hash reference.

=item C<< lazy_build => Bool >>

Setting this to true makes the attribute lazy and provides a number of
default methods.

  has 'size' => (
      is         => 'ro',
      lazy_build => 1,
  );

is equivalent to this:

  has 'size' => (
      is        => 'ro',
      lazy      => 1,
      builder   => '_build_size',
      clearer   => 'clear_size',
      predicate => 'has_size',
  );

=back

=head2 C<< associate_method(MethodName) >>

Associates a method with the attribute. Typically, this is called internally
when an attribute generates its accessors.

Currently the argument I<MethodName> is ignored in Mouse.

=head2 C<< verify_against_type_constraint(Item) -> TRUE | ERROR >>

Checks that the given value passes this attribute's type constraint. Returns C<true>
on success, otherwise C<confess>es.

=head2 C<< clone_and_inherit_options(options) -> Mouse::Meta::Attribute >>

Creates a new attribute in the owner class, inheriting options from parent classes.
Accessors and helper methods are installed. Some error checking is done.

=head2 C<< get_read_method_ref >>

=head2 C<< get_write_method_ref >>

Returns the subroutine reference of a method suitable for reading or
writing the attribute's value in the associated class. These methods
always return a subroutine reference, regardless of whether or not the
attribute is read- or write-only.
