  ## (in this case JSON)
  # pack the class into a JSON string
  $p->freeze({ format => 'JSON' }); # { "__CLASS__" : "Point", "x" : 10, "y" : 10 }
  # pack the class into a JSON string using parameterized JSONpm role
  $p->freeze({ format => [ JSONpm => { json_opts => { pretty => 1 } } ] });
  # unpack the JSON string into a class

This role is designed for those times when you need to serialize into many different formats or I/O options.

It basically allows you to choose the format and IO options only when you actually use them (see the SYNOPSIS for more info)

JSON

JSONpm

YAML

Storable

File

AtomicFile

NOTE: The StorableFile I/O option is not supported, this is because it does not mix well with options who also have a "thaw" and "freeze" methods like this. It is possible to probably work around this issue, but I don't currently have the need for it. If you need this supported, talk to me and I will see what I can do.

freeze ($type_desc)

thaw ($data, $type_desc)

load ($filename, $type_desc)

store ($filename, $type_desc)

All complex software has bugs lurking in it, and this module is no exception. If you find a bug please or add the bug to cpan-RT at <https://rt.cpan.org/Dist/Display.html?Queue=MooseX-Storage>.
