NAME

MoopsX::UsingMoose - A Moops that uses Moose

Requires Perl 5.14+ Travis status Distribution kwalitee CPAN Testers result coverage 97.4%

VERSION

Version 0.0103, released 2020-07-29.

SYNOPSIS

    use MoopsX::UsingMoose;

    class My::Class {

        # A Moose based class

    }

STATUS

Do note the inherent issues with using Moops.

DESCRIPTION

This is a thin wrapper around Moops that automatically adds using Moose to role and class statements. It does this by applying the included MoopsX::TraitFor::Parser::UsingMoose Moops::Parser trait.

Rationale

While this on the surface doesn't save any keystrokes it reduces cluttering of role/class statements. Consider the following:

    use Moops;

    class My::Project::Class
    types Types::Standard,
          Types::Path::Tiny,
          Types::MyCustomTypes
     with This::Role
    using Moose {

        # A Moose based class

    }

That is not very nice.

The first step is to get rid of using Moose:

    use MoopsX::UsingMoose;

    class My::Project::Class
    types Types::Standard,
          Types::Path::Tiny,
          Types::MyCustomTypes
     with This::Role {

        # A Moose based class

    }

A minor improvement.

However, create a project specific Moops wrapper:

    package My::Project::Moops;
    use base 'MoopsX::UsingMoose';

    use Types::Standard();
    use Types::Path::Tiny();
    use Types::MyCustomTypes();

    sub import {
        my $class = shift;
        my %opts = @_;

        push @{ $opts{'imports'} ||= [] } => (
            'Types::Standard' => ['-types'],
            'Types::Path::Tiny' => ['-types'],
            'Types::MyCustomTypes' => ['-types'],
        );

        $class->SUPER::import(%opts);
    }

And the class statement becomes:

    use My::Project::Moops;

    class My::Project::Class with This::Role {

        # A Moose based class, still with all the types

    }

Happiness ensues.
