Type::Tiny::Class - type constraints based on the "isa" method
Type constraints of the general form { $_->isa("Some::Class") }.
{ $_->isa("Some::Class") }
This package inherits from Type::Tiny; see that for most documentation. Major differences are listed below:
new
When the constructor is called on an instance of Type::Tiny::Class, it passes the call through to the constructor of the class for the constraint. So for example:
my $type = Type::Tiny::Class->new(class => "Foo::Bar"); my $obj = $type->new(hello => "World"); say ref($obj); # prints "Foo::Bar"
This little bit of DWIM was borrowed from MooseX::Types::TypeDecorator, but Type::Tiny doesn't take the idea quite as far.
class
The class for the constraint.
constraint
Unlike Type::Tiny, you should generally not pass a constraint to the constructor. Instead rely on the default.
inlined
Unlike Type::Tiny, you should generally not pass an inlining coderef to the constructor. Instead rely on the default.
