Home page: <https://metacpan.org/release/Mite>
Bug tracker: <https://github.com/tobyink/p5-mite/issues>
Maintainer: Toby Inkster (TOBYINK) <tobyink@cpan.org>
0.008002 2022-08-03
- Added: Support enum => \@values as a shortcut to define enumerated
attributes.
- Added: Support handles => 1 and handles => 2 for enumerated attributes,
like MooseX::Enumeration and MooX::Enumeration.
0.008001 2022-08-03
- Added: Mite can now optionally call triggers when an attribute value is
supplied by defaults/builders.
- Added: Mite can now optionally skip type checks/coercions on attribute
values supplied by defaults/builders.
0.008000 2022-08-01
- Added: Mite attributes keep track of the file name and line number they
were defined on, as well as some other context; this is included in
comments in the generated .mite.pm file, and provided when building
Moose-compatible metaobjects.
- Added: Mite can optionally write a Your::Project::MOP module which
provides Moose integration for your classes and roles.
0.007006 2022-07-21
- If you extend an attribute with a default in a parent class, adding a
builder in the child class, the builder will successfully replace the
default. And vice versa.
- Make previous optimizations for isa => Object or isa =>
InstanceOf['Some::Class'] apply more often.
- Minor changes to some error messages thrown by method signatures.
- Mite will now complain if you attempt to provide both a default and a
builder for the same attribute.
0.007005 2022-07-21
- Builders are now used over defaults if an attribute has both, but you
shouldn't be doing that anyway.
- Check ref($thing) before calling Scalar::Util::weaken($thing).
- Slightly prettier code for isa checks of attributes where isa => Object
or isa => InstanceOf['Some::Class'].
- Slightly prettier code for setting defaults of attributes where isa =>
Bool.
0.007004 2022-07-20
- BUILD methods are now called before strict constructors are enforced.
- Improve comments in generated code.
- Type check error messages for slurpy parameters in method signatures no
longer mention Slurpy[] in the text of the message. (It should still be
clear from the variable name that it's the slurpy parameter which is
failing.)
0.007003 2022-07-17
- signature_for '+parent_class_method'
0.007002 2022-07-17
- Improvements to Mite's ability to self-compile.
0.007001 2022-07-17
- Improvements to the Mite::Type module internally used by Mite.
0.007000 2022-07-17
[ Documentation ]
- Explicitly document that Mite's objects are blessed hashrefs.
[ Other ]
- Added: New `signature_for` keyword, adding Type::Params-like signatures.
- Added: clone_on_read and clone_on_write options for attributes.
0.006013 2022-07-14
[ Documentation ]
- Fix some minor typos in the documentation for the isa option for
attributes.
[ Other ]
- Allow [] and {} as defaults for attributes.
0.006012 2022-07-13
- If a type constraint is a reference but isn't a Type::Tiny object, try
to coerce it to one. Note that the type still needs to be inlineable,
but this allows for MooseX::Types to often work (but then why are you
using Mite?), Sub::Quote, and also often Type::Library::Compiled types.
0.006011 2022-07-12
- Avoid creating do {} blocks in constructors and readers/accessors when
calling a coderef default.
- Avoid creating do {} blocks in the constructor with a temporary variable
when an attribute has no type constraint, but does have an eager default
and an init_arg. This may provide a very small speed boost.
- Ensure that BUILD methods see the original hashref returned by BUILDARGS
instead of altering it when processing aliases.
0.006010 2022-07-12
[ Test Suite ]
- Switch from Fennec to Test2::V0 and Test2::Tools::Spec.
[ Packaging ]
- Add Class::XSAccessor to runtime recommendations.
[ Other ]
- If a Mite class is directly inheriting from another Mite class in this
project, it will no longer define its own BUILDALL, DESTROY, or __META__
methods and instead relies in the inherited methods; if it doesn't
define any attributes it will also inherit its constructor.
0.006009 2022-07-11
[ Documentation ]
- Internally cleaned up the type constraints for the different options
when defining an attribute; documented them better.
0.006008 2022-07-11
- Added: clone option for attributes (stolen from MooseX::Extended).
0.006007 2022-07-11
[ Documentation ]
- Minor tweaks.
[ Other ]
- Minor tidying.
0.006006 2022-07-10
[ Bug Fixes ]
- Eliminate warning from `mite init`.
[ Documentation ]
- Include benchmarking results.
0.006005 2022-07-10
[ Documentation ]
- Minor documentation improvements.
0.006004 2022-07-10
[ Documentation ]
- Change abstracts for some modules
[ Other ]
- Added: Support `has $name => $default;` syntax like Mojo::Base and
Object::Simple.
0.006003 2022-07-10
[ Documentation ]
- Correct abstracts for some modules
0.006002 2022-07-10
[ Bug Fixes ]
- Fix various minor bugs which were causing warnings on older Perls.
[ Documentation ]
- Fix minor typo in documentation for guard keyword.
[ Other ]
- Added: New `mite preview FILENAME` command to preview the Perl code Mite
will generate for a file.
- The Mite development tool now uses Getopt::Kingpin and Module::Pluggable
instead of App::Cmd, as recent versions of App::Cmd dropped support for
Perl older than 5.20, limiting the versions of Perl the Mite development
tool could run under. The Mite development tool now runs on Perl 5.10.1
or above, and projects compiled with it run on Perl 5.8.1 and above.
0.006001 2022-07-09
[ Bug Fixes ]
- Eliminate some 'used only once' warnings from compiled mite.pm files.
[ Other ]
- Added: Make the guard function from the Mite shim exportable.
0.006000 2022-07-09
[ Documentation ]
- Split the long Mite::Manual::Syntax pod into three smaller documents:
Mite::Manual::Keywords, Mite::Manual::Attributes, and
Mite::Manual::Features.
[ Other ]
- Added: local_writer option for attributes.
- Added: lvalue option for attributes.
0.005004 2022-07-08
- Attributes are now aware of which class/role they're currently being
compiled into, in case they need to reach out to it for any information.
- More concise attribute initialization code in constructors; this mostly
makes a difference to attributes with a type check/coercion that have
both an init_arg and an eager default/builder.
- Support %s in attribute reader/writer/etc method names as a placeholder
for the attribute's name.
0.005003 2022-07-07
- Added: Provide blessed.
- Added: Support -all for imports.
- Dumps of references auto-generated by croak/carp/confess will no longer
use indentation.
- Improvements to the self-compiling process -- that is, the process that
Mite uses to compile Mite.
- Minor improvements to the Mite shim.
0.005002 2022-07-07
- Added: Provide carp/croak/confess.
- Added: does for attributes.
- Mite::Shim tidy-ups.
0.005001 2022-07-06
- Added: Mite::Shim will now inject namespace::autoclean into your
class/role if it is installed and you haven't opted out.
0.005000 2022-07-05
- Added: Attribute `isa` options can now refer to types in a project-wide
type library, without introducing a dependency on Type::Library for your
project.
<https://github.com/tobyink/p5-mite/issues/17>
- Added: Roles now have a `requires` keyword, and method modifiers in
roles implicitly require the methods they are modifying.
<https://github.com/tobyink/p5-mite/issues/13>
- Allow classes to extend non-Mite classes.
<https://github.com/tobyink/p5-mite/issues/16>
- Restore the separate BUILDALL method which had previously been removed
in Mite 0.001006.
0.004000 2022-07-04
- Added: Provide constants `ro`, `rw`, `rwp`, `lazy`, and `bare` constants
as an opt-in feature.
- Added: Provide constants `true` and `false` constants as an opt-in
feature.
- Added: Support `param` and `field` like MooseX::Extended as an opt-in
feature.
- Make the Mite::Shim import method smarter, allowing you to opt-in and
opt-out of features.
0.003001 2022-07-03
[ Bug Fixes ]
- Workaround for how Role::Tiny roles are applied to Mite classes
affecting Role::Hooks.
[ Other ]
- An error is now thrown if you use `is` when modifying an attribute with
a + sign.
- Attribute initialization in the constructor changed from alphabetical
order to declaration order, with attributes in parent classes
initialized before attributes in child classes. Attributes modified with
a + sign are treated as a new declaration, so initialized later.
0.003000 2022-07-03
[ Bug Fixes ]
- Fix method modifiers applying to inherited methods.
[ Packaging ]
- Remove dependency on version.pm.
[ Other ]
- Added: Mite classes and roles can consume Role::Tiny roles.
<https://github.com/tobyink/p5-mite/issues/10>
0.002004 2022-07-03
[ Documentation ]
- Fixed a couple of typos in the documentation for `accessor`.
[ Other ]
- Compiled .mite.pm files no longer require Perl 5.10.1 but should work on
Perl 5.8.1+ as long as MRO::Compat is installed.
<https://github.com/tobyink/p5-mite/issues/7>
- Mite::Shim will print a warning on Perl older than 5.14 if
Devel::GlobalDestruction isn't installed.
- More reliable (and tidier) quoting of strings in compiled .mite.pm
files.
<https://github.com/tobyink/p5-mite/issues/11>
0.002003 2022-07-02
[ Packaging ]
- Removed the TODO file and put the tasks in the issue tracker.
[ Other ]
- Added: Allow attribute defaults to be expressed as a reference to a
string of Perl code.
<https://github.com/tobyink/p5-mite/issues/4>
- More efficient implementation of strict constructors.
- Removed: Removed some code related to the unimplemented idea of dataref
attribtue defaults.
0.002002 2022-07-01

[ Other ]
- Don't internally use roles, as the aim is to eventually be able to have
