MooseX::Storage::FormaUsertContributed PerMooseX::Storage::Format::Storable(3)NAME
MooseX::Storage::Format::Storable - A Storable serialization role
SYNOPSIS
package Point;
use Moose;
use MooseX::Storage;
with Storage('format' => 'Storable');
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
# pack the class with Storable
my $storable_data = $p->freeze();
# unpack the storable data into the class
my $p2 = Point->thaw($storable_data);
DESCRIPTION
This module will "thaw" and "freeze" Moose classes using Storable. It
uses "Storable::nfreeze" by default so that it can be easily used in
IPC scenarios across machines or just locally.
One important thing to note is that this module does not mix well with
the IO modules. The structures that "freeze" and "thaw" deal with are
Storable's memory representation, and (as far as I know) that is not
easily just written onto a file. If you want file based serialization
with Storable, the please look at the MooseX::Storage::IO::StorableFile
role instead.
METHODS
freeze
thaw ($stored)
