NAME
Data::Object::Role::Errable
ABSTRACT
Errable Role for Perl 5
SYNOPSIS
package Example;
use Moo;
with 'Data::Object::Role::Errable';
package main;
my $example = Example->new;
# $example->error('Oops!')
DESCRIPTION
This package provides a mechanism for handling errors (exceptions). It's a more structured approach to being "throwable". The idea is that any object that consumes this role can set an error which automatically throws an exception which if trapped includes the state (object as thrown) in the exception context.
INTEGRATES
This package integrates behaviors from:
LIBRARIES
This package uses type constraints from:
ATTRIBUTES
This package has the following attributes:
error
error(ExceptionObject)
This attribute is read-write, accepts (ExceptionObject)
values, and is optional.
METHODS
This package implements the following methods:
error
error(ExceptionObject $exception | HashRef $options | Str $message) : ExceptionObject
The error method takes an error message (string) or hashref of exception object constructor attributes and throws an "exception". If the exception is trapped the exception object will contain the object as the exception context. The original object will also have the exception set as the error attribute. The error attribute can be cleared using the error_reset
method.
- error example #1
-
package main; my $example = Example->new; $example->error('Oops!'); # throws exception
- error example #2
-
package main; my $example = Example->new; $example->error({ message => 'Oops!'}); # throws exception
- error example #3
-
package main; my $example = Example->new; my $exception = Data::Object::Exception->new('Oops!'); $example->error($exception); # throws exception
error_reset
error_reset() : Any
The error_reset method clears any exception object set on the object.
- error_reset example #1
-
package main; my $example = Example->new; eval { $example->error('Oops!') }; $example->error_reset
