new

Consructor

get_path

Return the full physical path to this node.

Base method.

get_addr

Return the full physical path to this node.

Base method.

get_name

Return the file name of this node.

Base method.

get_type

Return the Hub type signature for this node

Base method.

set_data

Set the data segment of this node

get_data

Return the data segment of this node

set_content

Set the content segment of this node

get_content

Return the content segment of this node

set_raw_content

Set the literal contents

get_raw_content

Return the literal contents

get_stat

Get the stat record for this node

get_mtime

Modified time of persistent storage

save

Save changes made to this node

expire

Detect changes made in persistent storage on next access

refresh

Detect changes made in persistent storage

reload

Force this node to reload itself

is_valid

Are we still a valid handler for this path?

PACKAGE INTERNALS

TIEHASH

See perltie

FIRSTKEY

See perltie

Scan for changes. This allows cached instances to refresh themselves upon member access.

FETCH

See perltie

Scan for changes.

EXISTS

See perltie

Scan for changes.

STORE

See perltie

Scan for changes and update modified time.

DELETE

See perltie

Scan for changes and update modified time.

SCALAR

See perltie

Scan for changes and return node contents.

__read_from_disk

Read instance data from persistent storage

Base method.

__write_to_disk

Write instance data to persistent storage

Abstract base method.

__scan

Read from disk if necessary

When $key is provided, this resource is then instantiated if necessary. This allows Data::Hub::FileSystem::Directory to maintain a key/value pair of filename/undef when reading the directory and delay instantiating (and hence recursively reading) the value until it is called upon.
