NAME

Bolts::Meta::Class::Trait::Bag - Metaclass role for Bolts-built bags

VERSION

version 0.143171

DESCRIPTION

While a bag may be any kind of object, this metaclass role on a bag provides some helpful utilities for creating and managing bags.

ATTRIBUTES

artifacts

These are the artifacts that have been added to this bag. It is saved as a hash. You can get the hash of artifacts as a list using list_artifacts. You add artifacts to this list using "add_artifact".

such_that_isa

This is a Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint to apply to the "isa_type" in Bolts::Artifact of all contained artifacts.

such_that_does

This is a Moose::Meta::TypeConstraint to apply to the "does_type" in Bolts::Artifact of all contained artifacts.

METHODS

is_finished_bag

my $finished = $meta->is_finished_bag;

This is used to determine if a bag's definition has already been performed and completed. At this time, it's just a synonym for "is_immutable" in Class::MOP::Class.

add_artifact

$meta->add_artifact(name => $artifact, {
    isa  => $isa_type,
    does => $does_type,
});

Adds an artifact method to the bag with the given name. The $artifact may be an instance of Bolts::Role::Artifact, a code reference to used to define a Bolts::Artifact::Thunk or just another value, which will be wrapped in an anonymous sub and turned into a Bolts::Artifact::Thunk.

The isa and does will be applied to the artifact as appropriate.

finish_bag

$meta->finish_bag;

This completes the bag building process and marks the Moose object as immutable. Aft this is called, "is_finished_bag" returns true.
