🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

package Thunking;
use Moo;
use MooX::Thunking;
use Types::TypeTiny -all;
use Types::Standard -all;
has children => (
  is => 'thunked',
  isa => ArrayRef[InstanceOf['Thunking']],
  required => 1,
);

package main;
my $obj;
$obj = Thunking->new(children => sub { [$obj] });

like… yes. that's it. that's the whole vibe. you pass a coderef, it becomes the value when somebody actually asks for it. iconic behavior fr fr. 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so this is a Moo extension, periodt. what it does is it lets you give has in Moo a whole extra value for the "is" parameter — and that value is "thunked". 🫶

and if you use it? it will let you transparently hand over either a real value for the attribute, or a "CodeLike" from Types::TypeTiny that, when you call it, returns such a real value. no cap, it just handles it for you. 💫

🚨 lore drop / history moment: in earlier versions of this module — up to 0.06 — any "isa" had to pass a "CodeLike". that's so not your problem anymore, because this module takes care of it now. and it will continue to do the right thing if no "isa" is supplied. she's responsible like that. 👑
