Moose::Cookbook - How to cook a Moose
The Moose cookbook is a series of recipes taken from the Moose test suite. Each recipe presents some code, which demonstrates some of the features of Moose, and then proceeds to explain the details of the code.
We also provide a Moose::Cookbook::FAQ and a Moose::Cookbook::WTF for common questions and problems people have with Moose.
A simple Moose-based class. Demonstrated Moose attributes and subclassing.
A slightly more complex Moose class. Demonstrates using a method modifier in a subclass.
Demonstrates several attribute features, including types, weak references, predicates ("does this object have a foo?"), defaults, and lazy attribute construction.
Introduces the creation and use of custom types, a BUILD method, and the use of override in a subclass.
BUILD
override
More type examples, including the use of type coercions.
Demonstrates the use of augment method modifiers, a way of turning the usual method overriding style "inside-out".
augment
Making a class immutable greatly increases the speed of accessors and object construction.

The builder feature provides an inheritable and role-composable way to provide a default attribute value.
Demonstrates roles, which are also sometimes known as traits or mix-ins. Roles provide a method of code re-use which is orthogonal to subclassing.
Sometimes you just want to include part of a role in your class. Sometimes you want the whole role but one if its methods conflicts with one in your class. With method exclusion and aliasing, you can work around these problems.
One way to extend Moose is to provide your own attribute metaclasses. Attribute metaclasses let you extend attribute declarations (with has) and behavior to provide additional attribute functionality.
has
Extending Moose's attribute metaclass is a great way to add functionality. However, attributes can only have one metaclass. Applying roles to the attribute metaclass lets you provide composable attribute functionality.
