  use Asset::File;
  
  # Temporary file
  my $file = Asset::File->new;
  $file->add_chunk('foo bar baz');
  say 'File contains "bar"' if $file->contains('bar') >= 0;
  say $file->slurp;
  
  # Existing file
  my $file = Asset::File->new(path => '/home/sri/foo.txt');
  $file->move_to('/yada.txt');
  say $file->slurp;

DESCRIPTION

Asset::File is a file content interface.

ATTRIBUTES

cleanup

  my $bool = $file->cleanup;
  $file    = $file->cleanup($bool);
