Moose::...gmented(3)

💅 NAME 💅

Moose::Meta::Method::Augmented — a Moose Method metaclass for augmented methods. It's giving method-metaclass realness, bestie, and it lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of the manual universe (that's the Moose::...gmented(3) page you just opened, iykyk).

✨ VERSION ✨

version 2.4000

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So this class is the one that handles all the method augmentation logic for the Moose augment keyword. That's the whole job. She's a specialist. 💅

The augmentation subroutine reference doesn't just fire off whenever — no ma'am — it gets invoked explicitly using the inner keyword from the parent class's method definition. So the parent has to actually call inner, periodt.

---

🌸 INHERITANCE 🌸

Moose::Meta::Method::Augmented is a subclass of Moose::Meta::Method. Family tree slays, she's got lineage. 👑

---

🎀 METHODS 🎀

💖 Moose::Meta::Method::Augmented->new(%options)

This constructs a brand new object, no cap. It accepts the following options:

• class — the metaclass object for the class where the augmentation is being declared. This option is required, so like, don't skip it. 🙈
• name — the name of the method we're augmenting. This method must exist in one of the class's superclasses. Also required. Non-negotiable.
• method — the subroutine reference that implements the augmentation. Yep, you guessed it: required. All three are required, she does not do optional, she does not do "I'll add it later."
