NAME
Moose::Cookbook::Snack::Types - Snippets of code for using Types and Type Constraints
SYNOPSIS
package Point;
use Moose;
has 'x' => ( isa => 'Int', is => 'ro' );
has 'y' => ( isa => 'Int', is => 'rw' );
package main;
my $point = eval { Point->new( x => 'fifty', y => 'forty' ); };
if ($@) {
print "Oops: $@";
}
my $point;
my $xval = 'forty-two';
my $xattribute = Point->meta->find_attribute_by_name('x');
my $xtype_constraint = $xattribute->type_constraint;
if ( $xtype_constraint->check($xval) ) {
$point = Point->new( x => $xval, y => 0 );
}
else {
print "Value: $xval is not an " . $xtype_constraint->name . "\n";
}
DESCRIPTION
This is the Point example from Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe1 with type checking added.
If we try to assign a string value to an attribute that is an "Int", Moose will die with
an explicit error message. The error will include the attribute name, as well as the type
constraint name and the value which failed the constraint check.
We use "eval" to catch this error message in $@.
Later, we get the Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint object from a Moose::Meta::Attribute and use
the Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint to check a value directly.
