MooseX...t::JSON(3pm)

💖 MooseX::Storage::Format::JSON — a JSON serialization role 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation for MooseX...t::JSON (that's MooseX::Storage::Format::JSON if we're being formal, which we are, sometimes). It's a role. It does JSON. It's giving "I serialize your objects and I do it flawlessly." ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

MooseX::Storage::Format::JSON — a JSON serialization role, no cap 💅

---

🌈 VERSION 🌈

version 0.53 — that's the one, that's the moment 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

okay so watch this, we're gonna make a whole Point class and give it JSON storage powers with literally two extra lines:

package Point;
use Moose;
use MooseX::Storage;

with Storage('format' => 'JSON');

has 'x' => (is => 'rw', isa => 'Int');
has 'y' => (is => 'rw', isa => 'Int');

1;

my $p = Point->new(x => 10, y => 10);

## methods to freeze/thaw into
## a specified serialization format
## (in this case JSON)

# pack the class into a JSON string
$p->freeze(); # { "__CLASS__" : "Point", "x" : 10, "y" : 10 }

# unpack the JSON string into a class
my $p2 = Point->thaw('{ "__CLASS__" : "Point", "x" : 10, "y" : 10 }');

look at her. Point->new(x => 10, y => 10) and then freeze just hands you back a whole JSON string with the class name baked in as "__CLASS__". iconic. and thaw takes that string and resurrects the object like nothing ever happened. main character energy fr fr 🫶

👑 METHODS 👑

freeze 💖

packs the class into a JSON string. that's the whole job, she does it gorgeously.

thaw ($json) 💖

takes that JSON string (the $json argument right there, don't forget her) and unpacks it back into a class. reverse uno card, but make it serialization.
