NAME
Config::MVP::Assembler::WithBundles - a role to make assemblers expand bundles
VERSION
version 2.200003
DESCRIPTION
Config::MVP::Assembler::WithBundles is a role to be composed into a Config::MVP::Assembler subclass. It allows some sections of configuration to be treated as bundles. When any section is ended, if that section represented a bundle, its bundle contents will be unrolled and will replace it in the sequence.
A package is considered a bundle if package_bundle_method
returns a defined value (which is the name of a method that will be called on that package to retrieve its bundle config).
my $method = $assembler->package_bundle_method($package);
The default implementation looks for a method called mvp_bundle_config
, but package_bundle_method
can be replaced with one that returns the name of a different bundle-identifying method-name.
Bundles are expanded by a call to the assembler's replace_bundle_with_contents
method, like this:
$assembler->replace_bundle_with_contents($section, $method);
replace_bundle_with_contents
The default replace_bundle_with_contents
method deletes the section from the sequence. It then gets a description of the new sections to introduce, like this:
my @new_config = $bundle_section->package->$method({
name => $bundle_section->name,
package => $bundle_section->package,
payload => $bundle_section->payload,
});
(We pass a hashref rather than a section so that bundles can be expanded synthetically without having to laboriously create a new Section.)
The returned @new_config
is a list of arrayrefs, each of which has three entries:
[ $name, $package, $payload ]
Each arrayref is converted into a section in the sequence. The $payload
should be an arrayref of name/value pairs to be added to the created section.
