MooseX::Types::Path::Class - A Path::Class type library for Moose
version 0.09
package MyClass; use Moose; use MooseX::Types::Path::Class; with 'MooseX::Getopt'; # optional has 'dir' => ( is => 'ro', isa => 'Path::Class::Dir', required => 1, coerce => 1, ); has 'file' => ( is => 'ro', isa => 'Path::Class::File', required => 1, coerce => 1, ); # these attributes are coerced to the # appropriate Path::Class objects MyClass->new( dir => '/some/directory/', file => '/some/file' );
MooseX::Types::Path::Class creates common Moose types, coercions and option specifications useful for dealing with Path::Class objects as Moose attributes.
Coercions (see Moose::Util::TypeConstraints) are made from both Str and ArrayRef to both Path::Class::Dir and Path::Class::File objects. If you have MooseX::Getopt installed, the Getopt option type ("=s") will be added for both Path::Class::Dir and Path::Class::File.
Str
ArrayRef
Getopt
None of these are exported by default. They are provided via MooseX::Types.
These exports can be used instead of the full class names. Example:
package MyClass; use Moose; use MooseX::Types::Path::Class qw(Dir File); has 'dir' => ( is => 'ro', isa => Dir, required => 1, coerce => 1, ); has 'file' => ( is => 'ro', isa => File, required => 1, coerce => 1, );
Note that there are no quotes around Dir or File.
Dir
File
Returns true or false based on whether $value is a valid Dir or File.
Attempts to coerce $value to a Dir or File. Returns the coerced value or false if the coercion failed.
