Config::Model::BackendTrackOrder - Track read order of elements from configuration
version 2.149
# inside a backend use Config::Model::BackendTrackOrder; has tracker => ( is => 'ro', isa => 'Config::Model::BackendTrackOrder', lazy_build => 1, ); sub _build_tracker { my $self = shift; return Config::Model::BackendTrackOrder->new( backend_obj => $self, node => $self->node, ) ; } # register elements to record user order $self->tracker->register_element('foo'); $self->tracker->register_element('bar'); # later, when writing data back foreach my $elt ( $self->tracker->get_ordered_element_names ) { # write data }
