NAME
MooX::late - easily translate Moose code to Moo
SYNOPSIS
package Foo;
use Moo;
use MooX::late;
has bar => (is => "ro", isa => "Str", default => "MacLaren's Pub");
(Examples for Moo roles in section below.)
DESCRIPTION
Moo is a light-weight object oriented programming framework which aims to
be compatible with Moose. It does this by detecting when Moose has been
loaded, and automatically "inflating" its classes and roles to full Moose
classes and roles. This way, Moo classes can consume Moose roles, Moose
classes can extend Moo classes, and so forth.
However, the surface syntax of Moo differs somewhat from Moose. For
example the `isa` option when defining attributes in Moose must be either
a string or a blessed Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint object; but in Moo must
be a coderef. These differences in surface syntax make porting code from
Moose to Moo potentially tricky. MooX::late provides some assistance by
enabling a slightly more Moosey surface syntax.
MooX::late does the following:
1. Supports `isa => $stringytype`.
2. Supports `does => $rolename` .
3. Supports `lazy_build => 1`.
4. Exports `blessed` and `confess` functions to your namespace.
5. Handles native attribute traits.
Five features. It is not the aim of `MooX::late` to make every aspect of
Moo behave exactly identically to Moose. It's just going after the
low-hanging fruit. So it does five things right now, and I promise that
future versions will never do more than seven.
Previous releases of MooX::late added support for `coerce => 1` and
`default => $nonref`. These features have now been added to Moo itself, so
MooX::late no longer has to deal with them.
Use in Moo::Roles
MooX::late should work in Moo::Roles, with no particular caveats.
package MyRole;
use Moo::Role;
use MooX::late;
Package::Variant can be used to build the Moo equivalent of parameterized
roles. MooX::late should work in roles built with Package::Variant.
use Package::Variant
importing => [ qw( Moo::Role MooX::late ) ],
subs => [ qw( has with ) ];
Type constraints
Type constraint strings are interpreted using Type::Parser, using the type
constraints defined in Types::Standard. This provides a very slight
superset of Moose's type constraint syntax and built-in type constraints.
Any unrecognized string that looks like it might be a class name is
interpreted as a class type constraint.
Subclassing
MooX::late is designed to be reasonably easy to subclass. There are
comments in the source code explaining hooks for extensibility.
BUGS
Please report any bugs to
<http://rt.cpan.org/Dist/Display.html?Queue=MooX-late>.
SEE ALSO
`MooX::late` uses Types::Standard to check type constraints.
`MooX::late` uses Sub::HandlesVia to provide native attribute traits
support.
The following modules bring additional Moose functionality to Moo, beyond
what MooX::late offers:
* MooX::Override - support override/super
* MooX::Augment - support augment/inner
MooX allows you to load Moo plus multiple MooX extension modules in a
single line.
