💅 MooseX::NonMoose::Meta::Role::Constructor — the manual page, bestie edition

okay so you're looking at MooseX...tructor(3pm) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and the full glow-up name is MooseX::NonMoose::Meta::Role::Constructor — it's the constructor method trait for MooseX::NonMoose. yes ma'am. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

MooseX::NonMoose::Meta::Role::Constructor — constructor method trait for MooseX::NonMoose. that's the whole name section, short and iconic, we love a concise queen 👑

---

🦋 VERSION 🦋

version 0.27 — that's the one, no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so here's the whole vibe, copied exactly, character for character, because we do NOT mess with code in this house:

package My::Moose;
use Moose ();
use Moose::Exporter;

Moose::Exporter->setup_import_methods;
sub init_meta {
    shift;
    my %options = @_;
    Moose->init_meta(%options);
    Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_metaclass_roles(
        for_class               => $options{for_class},
        metaclass_roles         => ['MooseX::NonMoose::Meta::Role::Class'],
        constructor_class_roles =>
            ['MooseX::NonMoose::Meta::Role::Constructor'],
    );
    return Moose::Util::find_meta($options{for_class});
}

like… look at her go. she's setting up an exporter, running init_meta, and applying metaclass roles via Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_metaclass_roles — with for_class set to $options{for_class}, metaclass_roles set to ['MooseX::NonMoose::Meta::Role::Class'], and constructor_class_roles set to ['MooseX::NonMoose::Meta::Role::Constructor']. then she returns Moose::Util::find_meta($options{for_class}). periodt. 💅

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so basically, this trait implements inlining of the constructor for classes that are using the MooseX::NonMoose::Meta::Role::Class metaclass trait.

🚨 IMPORTANT BESTIE ALERT 🚨 — this trait has no effect unless that trait is also used. it's a duo. a package deal. a two-piece. if MooseX::NonMoose::Meta::Role::Class isn't in the mix, this one is just… sitting there, doing nothing, minding its business. 😭

for the full tea, go read those docs and the docs for MooseX::NonMoose. they said it, not me. 🫶

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

ngl the original page didn't hand me a SEE ALSO section, so there's nothing extra to list here — but the DESCRIPTION does point you at the docs for the MooseX::NonMoose::Meta::Role::Class metaclass trait and the docs for MooseX::NonMoose, so those are your reading list, bestie. 📚✨
