NAME

       MooseX::Types::Perl - Moose types that check against Perl syntax

VERSION

       version 0.101341

SYNOPSIS

	 use MooseX::Types::Perl qw(
	   DistName

	   ModuleName
	   PackageName

	   Identifier
	   SafeIdentifier

	   LaxVersionStr
	   StrictVersionStr
	   VersionObject
	 );

DESCRIPTION

       This library provides Moose types for checking things (mostly strings) against syntax that is, or is a reasonable subset of, Perl syntax.

TYPES

   ModuleName
   PackageName
       These types are identical, and expect a string that could be a package or module name.  That's basically a bunch of identifiers stuck
       together with double-colons.  One key quirk is that parts of the package name after the first may begin with digits.

       The use of an apostrophe as a package separator is not permitted.

   DistName
       The DistName type checks for a string like "MooseX-Types-Perl", the sort of thing used to name CPAN distributions.  In general, it's like
       the more familiar ModuleName, but with hyphens instead of double-colons.

       In reality, a few distribution names may not match this pattern -- most famously, "CGI.pm" is the name of the distribution that contains
       CGI.  These exceptions are few and far between, and deciding what a "LaxDistName" type would look like has not seemed worth it, yet.

   Identifier
       An Identifier is something that could be used as a variable name.  Generally, it's a bunch of alphanumeric characters not starting with a
       digit.

       Although Perl identifiers may contain non-ASCII characters in some circumstances, this type does not allow it.  A "UnicodeIdentifier" type
       may be added in the future.

   SafeIdentifier
       SafeIdentifiers are just like Identifiers, but omit the single-letter variables underscore, a, and b, as these have special significance.

   LaxVersionStr
   StrictVersionStr
       Lax and strict version strings use the is_lax and is_strict methods from "version" to check if the given string would be a valid lax or
       strict version.	version::Internals covers the details but basically:  lax versions are everything you may do, and strict omit many of the
       usages best avoided.

   VersionObject
       Just for good measure, this type is included to check if a value is a version object.  Coercions from LaxVersionStr (and thus
       StrictVersionStr) are provided.

NAME

       MooseX::Types::Base - Type library base class

VERSION

       version 0.35

DESCRIPTION

       You normally won't need to interact with this class by yourself. It is merely a collection of functionality that type libraries need to
       interact with moose and the rest of the MooseX::Types module.

METHODS

   import
       Provides the import mechanism for your library. See "LIBRARY USAGE" in MooseX::Types for syntax details on this.

   get_type
       This returns a type from the library's store by its name.

   type_names
       Returns a list of all known types by their name.

   add_type
       Adds a new type to the library.

   has_type
       Returns true or false depending on if this library knows a type by that name.

   type_storage
       Returns the library's type storage hash reference. You shouldn't use this method directly unless you know what you are doing. It is not an
       internal method because overriding it makes virtual libraries very easy.

   registered_class_types
       Returns the class types registered within this library. Don't use directly.

   register_class_type
       Register a "class_type" for use in this library by class name.

   get_registered_class_type
       Get a "class_type" registered in this library by name.

   registered_role_types
       Returns the role types registered within this library. Don't use directly.

   register_role_type
       Register a "role_type" for use in this library by role name.

   get_registered_role_type
       Get a "role_type" registered in this library by role name.
