NAME
MooseX::Getopt::Defanged::OptionTypeMetadata - Bookkeeping of option type metadata MooseX::Getopt::Defanged.
SYNOPSIS
package Some::Program;
use Moose;
with qw< MooseX::Getopt::Defanged >;
sub run {
my ($self, $argv_ref) = @_;
$self->_configure($argv_ref);
...
} # end run()
sub _configure {
my ($self, $argv_ref) = @_;
my $metadata = $self->get_option_type_metadata();
$metadata->set_default_specification(Bool => '!');
$metadata->set_default_specification(Int => '=o');
$metadata->set_default_specification(Str => ':s');
$metadata->set_default_specification(MyType => '=s{2,3}');
$metadata->set_default_value_generator(Int => sub { 5 });
$self->parse_command_line($argv_ref);
...
return;
} # end _configure()VERSION
This document describes MooseX::Getopt::Defanged::OptionTypeMetadata version 1.18.0.
DESCRIPTION
This is a holder of metadata about Moose types for MooseX::Getopt::Defanged. For example, it keeps track of what the default Getopt::Long specification should be for a given type.
This contains default mappings for the following types:
Type Specification
------------- -------------
Bool «empty»
Str =s
Int =i
Num =f
RegexpRef =s
ArrayRef =s{1,}
ArrayRef[Str] =s{1,}
ArrayRef[Int] =i{1,}
ArrayRef[Num] =f{1,}
HashRef =s%
HashRef[Str] =s%
HashRef[Int] =i%
HashRef[Num] =f%Also, for each type, "Maybe[«type»]" uses the same specification.
INTERFACE
get_default_specification($type)
Given a type name, returns the default Getopt::Long specification for the type, if there is one.
set_default_specification($type => $specification)
Sets the default Getopt::Long specification for options of the given type. Use this to override the defaults or to specify a default for a type you created via Moose's subtype mechanism.
delete_default_specification($type)
Removes any default specification for the given type (because the empty string is a valid specification).
get_default_value_generator($type)
Given a type name, returns a code reference that can provide a default value for an option of the given type, if there is one.
set_default_value_generator( $type => sub { ... } )
Sets the generator of default values for options of the given type. The subroutine will get no arguments. Use this to override the defaults or to specify a default for a type you created via Moose's subtype mechanism.
get_default_stringifier($type)
Given a type name, returns a code reference that can convert from an option of the given type to a string, if there is one.
set_default_stringifier( $type => sub { ... } )
Sets the to-string converter for options of the given type. The subroutine will get a single argument of the value to convert to a string. Use this to override the defaults or to specify a default for a type you created if you don't want to use Perl's standard stringification or overload.
get_default_destringifier($type)
Given a type name, returns a code reference that can convert from a string to the value an option of the given type, if there is one.
set_default_destringifier( $type => sub { ... } )
Sets the from-string converter for options of the given type. The subroutine will get a single argument of the string to be turned into the option value. Use this to override the defaults or to specify a default for a type you created if you don't want to use Moose's subtype mechanism.
DIAGNOSTICS
If you specify an attribute type that this class doesn't understand, a MooseX::Getopt::Defanged::Exception::InvalidSpecification will be thrown with the message There's no "$type_name" type..
