objects

  objects() : ArrayRef[Object]

The objects method returns a collection of objects derived from the query criteria.

objects example #1
  # given: synopsis

  my $objects = $search->objects;
objects example #2
  # given: synopsis

  use Zing::KeyVal;
  use Zing::PubSub;

  my $keyval = Zing::KeyVal->new(name => rand);
  $keyval->send({ sent => 1 });

  my $pubsub = Zing::PubSub->new(name => rand);
  $pubsub->send({ sent => 1 });

  my $objects = $search->objects;

process

  process(CodeRef $callback) : Object

results example #1
  # given: synopsis

  my $results = $search->results;
results example #2

  use Zing::KeyVal;
  use Zing::PubSub;

  my $keyval = Zing::KeyVal->new(name => rand);
  $keyval->send({ sent => 1 });

  my $pubsub = Zing::PubSub->new(name => rand);
  $pubsub->send({ sent => 1 });

  my $results = $search->results;

using

  using(Repo $repo) : Object

The using method modifies the search criteria to match the term of the provided repo or Zing::Repo derived object.

using example #1
  # given: synopsis

  use Zing::Queue;

  my $tasks = Zing::Queue->new(name => 'tasks');

  $search = $search->using($tasks);

where

  where(Str %args) : Object
