NAME

       MooseX::Storage::Engine - The meta-engine to handle collapsing and expanding objects

VERSION

       version 0.45

DESCRIPTION

       There really aren't any major user serviceable parts here. However the typical use case is adding new non-Moose classes to the type
       registry for serialization. Here is an example of this for DateTime objects. This assumes a "DateTime" type has been registered.

	   MooseX::Storage::Engine->add_custom_type_handler(
	       'DateTime' => (
		   expand   => sub { DateTime->new(shift) },
		   collapse => sub { (shift)->iso8601 },
	       )
	   );
