NAME

       Badger::Codec::Storable - encode/decode data using Storable

SYNOPSIS

           use Badger::Codec::Storable;

           my $codec = Badger::Codec::Storable->new();
           my $enc   = $codec->encode({ pi => 3.14, e => 2.718 });
           my $dec   = $codec->decode($encoded);

DESCRIPTION

       This module implements a subclass of Badger::Codec which uses the "freeze()" and "thaw()"
       subroutines provided by the Storable module to encode and decode data.

       It a very thin wrapper around the Storable module and offers no functional advantage over
       it.  It exist only to provide a consistent API with other Badger::Codec modules.

METHODS

   encode($data)
       Encodes the data referenced by the first argument using "freeze()".

           $encoded = Badger::Codec::Storable->encode($data);

   decode($html)
       Decodes the encoded data passed as the first argument using "thaw()".

           $decoded = Badger::Codec::Storable->decode($encoded);

   encoder()
       This method returns a reference to the real subroutine that's doing all the encoding work,
       i.e. the "freeze()" method in Storable.

   decoder()
       This method returns a reference to the real subroutine that's doing all the decoding work,
       i.e. the "thaw()" method in Storable.
