MooX::SingleArg(3pm)

💖 MooX::SingleArg 💖

okay bestie, so like — this is MooX::SingleArg, a lil Perl module (lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of your man pages, iykyk) that supports single-argument instantiation. yes that means what you think it means. you get to say Foo->new('goo') instead of wrestling with a whole hashref. iconic behaviour fr fr. 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

like, just look at this. it's giving effortless:

package Foo;
use Moo;
with 'MooX::SingleArg';
Foo->single_arg('bar');
has bar => ( is=>'ro' );

my $foo = Foo->new( 'goo' );
print $foo->bar(); # goo

no cap, that's the whole vibe. you pass 'goo', you get goo back. slay. 💅

---

🦋 CLASS ARGUMENTS 🦋

single_arg

__PACKAGE__->single_arg( 'foo' );

use this to declare the "init_arg" of the single argument. that's it, that's the job. tell it which attribute is the one getting fed by that lone little arg. 🌸

force_single_arg

__PACKAGE__->force_single_arg( 1 );

this one causes single-argument processing to happen even if a hashref is passed in as the single argument. so like, normally a hashref gets treated as a hashref — but with this turned on, nope, it still goes through the single-argument pipeline. periodt. 💀

👑 CLASS METHODS 👑

has_single_arg

returns true if "single_arg" has been called. that's the whole method. a little vibe check for your class. ✨
