Moose::Util::MetaRole(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Moose::Util::MetaRole(3) NAME
Moose::Util::MetaRole - Apply roles to any metaclass, as well as the object base class VERSION
version 2.0604 SYNOPSIS
package MyApp::Moose; use Moose (); use Moose::Exporter; use Moose::Util::MetaRole; use MyApp::Role::Meta::Class; use MyApp::Role::Meta::Method::Constructor; use MyApp::Role::Object; Moose::Exporter->setup_import_methods( also => 'Moose' ); sub init_meta { shift; my %args = @_; Moose->init_meta(%args); Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_metaroles( for => $args{for_class}, class_metaroles => { class => => ['MyApp::Role::Meta::Class'], constructor => ['MyApp::Role::Meta::Method::Constructor'], }, ); Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_base_class_roles( for => $args{for_class}, roles => ['MyApp::Role::Object'], ); return $args{for_class}->meta(); } DESCRIPTION
This utility module is designed to help authors of Moose extensions write extensions that are able to cooperate with other Moose extensions. To do this, you must write your extensions as roles, which can then be dynamically applied to the caller's metaclasses. This module makes sure to preserve any existing superclasses and roles already set for the meta objects, which means that any number of extensions can apply roles in any order. USAGE
The easiest way to use this module is through Moose::Exporter, which can generate the appropriate "init_meta" method for you, and make sure it is called when imported. FUNCTIONS
This module provides two functions. apply_metaroles( ... ) This function will apply roles to one or more metaclasses for the specified class. It will return a new metaclass object for the class or role passed in the "for" parameter. It accepts the following parameters: o for => $name This specifies the class or for which to alter the meta classes. This can be a package name, or an appropriate meta-object (a Moose::Meta::Class or Moose::Meta::Role). o class_metaroles => \%roles This is a hash reference specifying which metaroles will be applied to the class metaclass and its contained metaclasses and helper classes. Each key should in turn point to an array reference of role names. It accepts the following keys: class attribute method wrapped_method instance constructor destructor error o role_metaroles => \%roles This is a hash reference specifying which metaroles will be applied to the role metaclass and its contained metaclasses and helper classes. It accepts the following keys: role attribute method required_method conflicting_method application_to_class application_to_role application_to_instance application_role_summation applied_attribute apply_base_class_roles( for => $class, roles => @roles ) This function will apply the specified roles to the object's base class.
