NAME

       MooseX::AttributeShortcuts::Trait::Attribute - Shortcuts attribute trait proper

VERSION

       This document describes version 0.037 of MooseX::AttributeShortcuts::Trait::Attribute - released November
       20, 2017 as part of MooseX-AttributeShortcuts.

DESCRIPTION

       This is the actual attribute trait that implements MooseX::AttributeShortcuts.  You should consult that
       package's documentation for information on any of the new attribute options; we're mainly going to
       document the additional attributes, methods, and role parameters that this role provides.

       All methods we include that chain off Moose's "_process_options()" are prefixed with "_mxas_" and
       generally are not documented in the POD; we document any internal methods of Moose::Meta::Attribute that
       we wrap or otherwise override we document here as well.

ROLE PARAMETERS

       Parameterized roles accept parameters that influence their construction.  This role accepts the following
       parameters.

   writer_prefix
   builder_prefix

ATTRIBUTES

   constraint
       CodeRef, read-only.

   original_isa
   trigger_method
       Contains the name of the method that will be invoked as a trigger.

BEFORE METHOD MODIFIERS

   _process_options
       Here we wrap _process_options() instead of the newer _process_is_option(), as that makes our life easier
       from a Moose 1.x/2.x compatibility perspective -- and that we're generally altering more than just the
       'is' option at one time.

AROUND METHOD MODIFIERS

   _make_delegation_method
       Here we create and install any custom accessors that have been defined.

AFTER METHOD MODIFIERS

   attach_to_class
       We hijack attach_to_class in order to install our anon_builder, if we have one.  Note that we don't go
       the normal associate_method/install_accessor/etc route as this is kinda...  different.  (That is, the
       builder is not an accessor of this attribute, and should not be installed as such.)

METHODS

   has_constraint
       Predicate for the "constraint" attribute.

   has_original_isa
       Predicate for the "original_isa" attribute.

   has_trigger_method
       Predicate for the "trigger_method" attribute.

   builder_method_metaclass()
       Returns the metaclass we'll use to install a inline builder.

   canonical_writer_prefix
       Returns the writer prefix; this is almost always "set_".

   canonical_builder_prefix
       Returns the builder prefix; this is almost always "_build_".

PREFIXES

       We accept two parameters on the use of this module; they impact how builders and writers are named.

   -writer_prefix
           use MooseX::::AttributeShortcuts -writer_prefix => 'prefix';

       The default writer prefix is "_set_".  If you'd prefer it to be something else (say, "_"), this is where
       you'd do that.

   -builder_prefix
           use MooseX::AttributeShortcuts -builder_prefix => 'prefix';

       The default builder prefix is "_build_", as this is what "lazy_build" in Moose does, and what people in
       general recognize as build methods.
