NAME

       MooX::Types::MooseLike::Base - Moose like types for Moo

SYNOPSIS

           package MyPackage;
           use Moo;
           use MooX::Types::MooseLike::Base qw(:all);

           has "beers_by_day_of_week" => (
               isa => HashRef
           );
           has "current_BAC" => (
               isa => Num
           );

           # Also supporting is_$type.  For example, is_Int() can be used as follows
           has 'legal_age' => (
               is => 'ro',
               isa => sub { die "$_[0] is not of legal age"
                                  unless (is_Int($_[0]) && $_[0] > 17) },
           );

DESCRIPTION

       Moo attributes (like Moose) have an 'isa' property.  This module provides some basic types
       for this property.  One can import all types with ':all' tag or import a list of types
       like:

           use MooX::Types::MooseLike::Base qw/HashRef ArrayRef/;

       so one could then declare some attributtes like:

               has 'contact' => (
                 is => 'ro',
                 isa => HashRef,
               );
               has 'guest_list' => (
                 is => 'ro',
                 isa => ArrayRef[HashRef],
               );

       These types provide a check that the contact attribute is a "hash" reference, and that the
       guest_list is an "array of hash" references.

PARAMETERIZED TYPES

   Parameterizing Types With a Single Type
       The following types can be parameterized with other types.

       ArrayRef

       For example, ArrayRef[HashRef]

       HashRef

       ScalarRef

       Maybe

       For example, Maybe[Int] would be an integer or undef

   Parameterizing Types With Multiple Types
       AnyOf

       Check if the attribute is any of the listed types (think union).  Takes a list of types as
       the argument, for example:

         isa => AnyOf[Int, ArrayRef[Int], HashRef[Int]]

       Note: AnyOf is passed an ArrayRef[CodeRef]

       AllOf

       Check if the attribute is all of the listed types (think intersection) Takes a list of
       types as the argument. For example:

         isa => AllOf[
           InstanceOf['Human'],
           ConsumerOf['Air'],
           HasMethods['breath', 'dance']
         ],

   Parameterizing Types With (Multiple) Strings
       In addition, we have some parameterized types that take string arguments.

       InstanceOf

       Check if the attribute is an object instance of one or more classes.  Uses "blessed" and
       "isa" to do so.  Takes a list of class names as the argument. For example:

         isa => InstanceOf['MyClass','MyOtherClass']

       Note: InstanceOf is passed an ArrayRef[Str]

       ConsumerOf

       Check if the attribute is blessed and consumes one or more roles.  Uses "blessed" and
       "does" to do so.  Takes a list of role names as the arguments. For example:

         isa => ConsumerOf['My::Role', 'My::AnotherRole']

       HasMethods

       Check if the attribute is blessed and has one or more methods.  Uses "blessed" and "can"
       to do so.  Takes a list of method names as the arguments. For example:

         isa => HasMethods[qw/postulate contemplate liberate/]

       Enum

       Check if the attribute is one of the enumerated strings.  Takes a list of possible string
       values. For example:

         isa => Enum['rock', 'spock', 'paper', 'lizard', 'scissors']
