πŸ’– Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation(3) β€” it's part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and yes the vibe is immaculate. This is the page for Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation, a Moose Method metaclass for delegation methods. πŸ¦‹

✨ VERSION ✨

version 2.4000 β€” she's grown, she's thriving πŸ’…

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So like, this is a subclass of Moose::Meta::Method for delegation methods. That's the whole tea. It's giving "I inherit, therefore I am." πŸŽ€

πŸ‘‘ METHODS πŸ‘‘

πŸ’« Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation->new(%options)

This is the constructor, and she creates the delegation methods based on the %options you hand her. Let's go through what you can pass:

  • attribute β€” this must be an instance of Moose::Meta::Attribute, specifically the one this accessor is being generated for. This option is required (no attribute, no method, sorry babe πŸ™ˆ).
  • delegate_to_method β€” the method in the associated attribute's value that we delegate to. Can be either a method name or a code reference, your call, main character energy either way.
  • curried_arguments β€” an array reference of arguments that get prepended to the argument list for any call to the delegating method. Yes bestie, they go first, no cap. ⭐

πŸ’« $metamethod->associated_attribute

Returns the attribute associated with this method. Simple. Iconic. Periodt.

πŸ’« $metamethod->curried_arguments

Returns any curried arguments that will be passed to the delegated method. The little pre-loaded snack pack of args πŸ“

πŸ’« $metamethod->delegate_to_method

Returns the method to which this method delegates β€” exactly as passed to the constructor. What you put in is what you get out, fr fr.

πŸ’€ BUGS πŸ’€

See "BUGS" in Moose for details on reporting bugs. (Not me being the messenger β€” go read the main Moose page, bestie.)
