NAME

       Config::MVP::Assembler::WithBundles - a role to make assemblers expand bundles

VERSION

       version 2.200010

DESCRIPTION

       Config::MVP::Assembler::WithBundles is a role to be composed into a Config::MVP::Assembler subclass.  It
       allows some sections of configuration to be treated as bundles.  When any section is ended, if that
       section represented a bundle, its bundle contents will be unrolled and will replace it in the sequence.

       A package is considered a bundle if "package_bundle_method" returns a defined value (which is the name of
       a method that will be called on that package to retrieve its bundle config).

         my $method = $assembler->package_bundle_method($package);

       The default implementation looks for a method called "mvp_bundle_config", but "package_bundle_method" can
       be replaced with one that returns the name of a different bundle-identifying method-name.

       Bundles are expanded by a call to the assembler's "replace_bundle_with_contents" method, like this:

         $assembler->replace_bundle_with_contents($section, $method);

   replace_bundle_with_contents
       The default "replace_bundle_with_contents" method deletes the section from the sequence.  It then gets a
       description of the new sections to introduce, like this:

         my @new_config = $bundle_section->package->$method({
           name    => $bundle_section->name,
           package => $bundle_section->package,
           payload => $bundle_section->payload,
         });

       (We pass a hashref rather than a section so that bundles can be expanded synthetically without having to
       laboriously create a new Section.)

       The returned @new_config is a list of arrayrefs, each of which has three entries:

         [ $name, $package, $payload ]

       Each arrayref is converted into a section in the sequence.  The $payload should be an arrayref of
       name/value pairs to be added to the created section.
