MooseX::LazyRequire(3)User Contributed Perl DocumentatioMooseX::LazyRequire(3)NAME
MooseX::LazyRequire - Required attributes which fail only when trying
to use them
SYNOPSIS
package Foo;
use Moose;
use MooseX::LazyRequire;
has foo => (
is => 'ro',
lazy_required => 1,
);
has bar => (
is => 'ro',
builder => '_build_bar',
);
sub _build_bar { shift->foo }
Foo->new(foo => 42); # succeeds, foo and bar will be 42
Foo->new(bar => 42); # succeeds, bar will be 42
Foo->new; # fails, neither foo nor bare were given
DESCRIPTION
This module adds a "lazy_required" option to Moose attribute
declarations.
The reader methods for all attributes with that option will throw an
exception unless a value for the attributes was provided earlier by a
constructor parameter or through a writer method.
CAVEATS
Prior to Moose 1.9900, roles didn't have an attribute metaclass, so
this module can't easily apply its magic to attributes defined in
roles. If you want to use "lazy_required" in role attributes, you'll
have to apply the attribute trait yourself:
has foo => (
traits => ['LazyRequire'],
is => 'ro',
lazy_required => 1,
);
With Moose 1.9900, you can use this module in roles just the same way
you can in classes.
