MooseX:...it::Role(3)

hey bestie 💖 welcome to the MooseX:...it::Role(3) page — yes, that’s the manual name folded in right up top, from the User Contributed Perl Documentation. buckle up, we’re doing class attributes in roles and it’s lowkey iconic.

🌸 NAME 🌸

MooseX::ClassAttribute::Trait::Role — A trait for roles with class attributes. that’s the whole vibe: a trait, for roles, with class attributes. periodt.

✨ VERSION ✨

version 0.29 — short, sweet, slaying.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

okay so this is the little loop they show you:

for my $attr ( HasClassAttributes->meta()->get_all_class_attributes() )
{
    print $attr->name();
}

cute, right? it walks all the class attributes and prints their names. no cap.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This role adds awareness of class attributes to a role metaclass object. It provides a set of introspection methods that largely parallel the existing attribute methods, except they operate on class attributes. it’s giving “same energy, but for class attributes.” 💅

💅 METHODS 💅

Every method provided by this role has an analogous method in Class::MOP::Class or Moose::Meta::Class for regular attributes. so if you already know those, you’re lowkey already fluent. iykyk.

$meta->has_class_attribute($name) / $meta->get_class_attribute($name) / $meta->get_class_attribute_list()

These methods are exactly like their counterparts in MooseX::ClassAttribute::Trait::Class. no extra plot twists.

$meta->add_class_attribute(...)

This accepts the same options as the Moose::Meta::Attribute add_attribute() method. However, if an attribute is specified as "required" an error will be thrown. so bestie, do not mark it required unless you’re ready for the drama 😭.

$meta->remove_class_attribute($name)

If the named class attribute exists, it is removed from the role. simple as that. poof. ✨

💀 BUGS 💀
