NAME

       Types::UUID - type constraints for UUIDs

SYNOPSIS

          package FroobleStick;

          use Moo;
          use Types::UUID;

          has identifier => (
             is      => 'lazy',
             isa     => Uuid,
             coerce  => 1,
             builder => Uuid->generator,
          );

DESCRIPTION

       Types::UUID is a type constraint library suitable for use with Moo/Moose attributes,
       Kavorka sub signatures, and so forth.

   Type
       Currently the module only provides one type constraint, which is exported by default.

       "Uuid"
           A valid UUID string, as judged by the "is_uuid_string()" function provided by
           UUID::Tiny.

           This constraint has coercions from "Undef" (generates a new UUID), "Str" (fixes
           slightly broken-looking UUIDs, adding missing dashes; also accepts base-64-encoded
           UUIDs) and URI objects using the "urn:uuid:" URI scheme.

   Methods
       The "Uuid" type constraint is actually blessed into a subclass of Type::Tiny, and provides
       an aditional method:

       "Uuid->generate"
           Generates a new UUID. "Uuid->coerce(undef)" would also work, but looks a little odd.

       "Uuid->generator"
           Returns a coderef which generates a new UUID. For an example usage, see the
           "SYNOPSIS".
