SYNOPSIS
use Zing::Table;
my $table = Zing::Table->new(name => 'users');
# my $domain = $table->set('unique-id');
DESCRIPTION
This package provides an index and lookup-table for Zing::Repo derived data structures which provides the ability to create a collection of repo objects.
INHERITS
This package inherits behaviors from:
LIBRARIES
This package uses type constraints from:
ATTRIBUTES
This package has the following attributes:
position
position(Maybe[Int])
This attribute is read-write, accepts (Maybe[Int])
values, and is optional.
type
type(TableType)
This attribute is read-only, accepts (TableType)
values, and is optional.
METHODS
This package implements the following methods:
count
count() : Int
The count method returns the number of Zing::Repo objects in the table.
drop
drop() : Int
The drop method returns truthy if the table and all of its objects were removed from the store.
fetch
fetch(Int $size = 1) : ArrayRef[Repo]
The fetch method returns the next n
Zing::Repo objects from the table.
- fetch example #2
-
# given: synopsis $table->set('user-12345'); $table->set('user-12346'); $table->set('user-12347'); $table->fetch(5);
first
first() : Maybe[Repo]
The first method returns the first Zing::Repo object created in the table.
get
get(Str $key) : Maybe[Repo]
The get method returns the Zing::Repo associated with a specific key.
head
head() : Maybe[Repo]
The head method returns the first Zing::Repo object created in the table.
index
index(Int $position) : Maybe[Repo]
The index method returns the Zing::Repo object at the position (index) specified.
last
last() : Maybe[Repo]
The last method returns the last Zing::Repo object created in the table.
next
next() : Maybe[Repo]
The next method returns the next Zing::Repo object created in the table.
prev
prev() : Maybe[Repo]
The prev method returns the previous Zing::Repo object created in the table.
renew
renew() : Int
The renew method returns truthy if it resets the internal cursor, otherwise falsy.
reset
reset() : Int
The reset method always reset the internal cursor and return truthy.
set
set(Str $key) : Repo
The set method creates a Zing::Repo association with a specific key in the table. The key should be unique. Adding the same key will result in duplicate entries.
tail
tail() : Maybe[Repo]
The tail method returns the last Zing::Repo object created in the table.
term
term() : Str
The term method returns the name of the table.
