NAME
Data::Serializable - Moose role that adds serialization support to any class
VERSION
version 0.40.1
SYNOPSIS
package MyClass;
use Moose;
with 'Data::Serializable';
no Moose;
package main;
my $obj = MyClass->new( serializer_module => 'JSON' );
my $json = $obj->serialize( "Foo" );
...
my $str = $obj->deserialize( $json );
DESCRIPTION
A Moose-based role that enables the consumer to easily serialize/deserialize data structures. The default serializer is Storable, but any serializer in the Data::Serializer hierarchy can be used automatically. You can even install your own custom serializer if the pre-defined ones are not useful for you.
ATTRIBUTES
throws_exception
Defines if methods should throw exceptions or return undef. Default is to throw exceptions. Override default value like this:
has '+throws_expection' => ( default => 0 );
serializer_module
Name of a predefined module that you wish to use for serialization. Any submodule of Data::Serializer is automatically supported. The built-in support for Storable doesn't require Data::Serializer.
serializer
If none of the predefined serializers work for you, you can install your own. This should be a code reference that takes one argument (the message to encode) and returns a scalar back to the caller with the serialized data.
deserializer
Same as serializer, but to decode the data.
METHODS
serialize($message)
Runs the serializer on the specified argument.
deserialize($message)
Runs the deserializer on the specified argument.
