NAME
Workflow::Persister::UUID - Persister to generate Universally Unique Identifiers
VERSION
This documentation describes version 1.62 of this package
SYNOPSIS
<persister
name="MyPersister"
use_uuid="yes"
...
DESCRIPTION
Implementation for any persister to generate a UUID/GUID ID string. The resulting string is 36 characters long and, according to the implementation docs, "is guaranteed to be different from all other UUIDs/GUIDs generated until 3400 CE."
This uses the Data::UUID module to generate the UUID string, so look there if you are curious about the algorithm, efficiency, etc.
METHODS
new
Instantiates a Workflow::Persister::UUID object, which is actually an encapsulation of Data::UUID.
pre_fetch_id
"pre_fetch_id" can then be used to generate/retrieve a unique ID, generated by Data::UUID.
post_fetch_id
This method is unimplemented at this time, please see the TODO.
TODO
Implement "post_fetch_id"
