Description

"I'm just a attribute with a trigger", when you...

use MooX::VariantAttribute;

Magically a role is added..

with 'MooX::VariantAttribute::Role';

MooX::VariantAttribute::Role is a Moo::Role that contains the variant attributes *trigger* logic.

variant

Multiple variant attributes can be declared, they are read in as a list. Each will be transformed into a Moo Attribute with a trigger.

variant 'one' => (
    given => Str,
    when => [
        one => { run => sub { return 'one' } },
    ],
);
    
.....

has one => (
    is => 'rw',
    trigger => sub {
        return $_[0]->_given_when($_[1], $spec{given}, $spec{when}, $name);
    }
);

These attributes have to be read-write as the trigger is used to set the final *stored* value.

The Variants should always have two key/value pairs, given and when, given accepts a code reference or Type::Tiny object. When the code reference is called two parameters are passed, the first $self and the second the $new value. Type::Tiny objects are called with just the $new value.

given => sub { my $self = shift; ref $_[0] },

*when* should always be an array reference of pairs. The first value is the *matching* value it can be an SCALAR, ARRAY, HASH maybe even an Object. The second value has to be an hash reference with two optional keys run and alias. *run* can either be a code reference or a scalar that references a sub routine available to $self, bot will be passed $self, the $value returned from given and the $new passed value.

package Backwards::World;
use Moo;
use MooX::VariantAttribute;
use Types::Standard qw/Any/;

variant hello => (
    given => Any,
    when => [
        { one => 'two' } => {
            run => sub { return keys %{ $_[2] } },
        },
        { three => 'four' } => {
            run => sub { return values %{ $_[2] } },
        },
        [ qw/five six/ ] => {
            run => sub { return $_[2]->[1] },
        },
        seven => {
            run => 'seven',
        }
    ],
);

sub seven {
    return $_[0]->hello({ one => 'two' });
}

....

my $object = Backwards::World->new( hello => 'one' );

$object->hello # one;

$object->hello({ three => 'four' }); # four;
$object->hello, # four;

$object->hello([ qw/five six/ ]), # six;
$object->hello, # six;

$object->hello('seven'), # one;
$object->hello, # one;
