has 'label' => ( is => 'rw' );
# and then ....
package main;
use Storm;
# connect to a database
$storm = Storm->new( source => ['DBI:SQLite:dbname=:memory:'] );
$o = Foo->new( label => 'Storm Enabled Object' );
# store object
$storm->insert( $o );
# update object
$o->label( 'Updated Object' );
$storm->update( $o );
# sync object with database
$storm->refresh( $o );
# lookup object in database
$o = $storm->lookup( 'Foo', 1 );
# search for objects in database
$query = $storm->select( 'Foo' );
$query->where( '.label', '=', 'Updated Object' )
$iter = $query->results;
@results = $iter->all;
# delete objects
$storm->delete( $o );DESCRIPTION
Storm is a Moose based library for storing and retrieving objects from a DBI connection.
ATTRIBUTES
- aeolus
-
Read-only.
A Storm::Aeolus object for installing/uninstalling database tables.
- live_objects

Read-only.
A Storm::LiveObjects object for tracking the set of live objects. Creates scope objects to help ensure that objects are not garbage collected. This is used internally and you typically shouldn't need to access it yourself. It is documented here for completeness.
- policy
-
The policy determines how types are defined in the database and can be used to customize how types are inflated/deflated. See Storm::Policy for more details.
- source
-
Required.
The Storm::Source object responsible for spawning active database handles. A Storm::Source object will be coerced from a ArrayRef or Hashref.
