Specio::Library::Builtins(3)               User Contributed Perl Documentation


NAME
       Specio::Library::Builtins - Implements type constraint objects for
       Perl's built-in types

VERSION
       version 0.48

DESCRIPTION
       This library provides a set of types parallel to those provided by
       Moose.

       The types are in the following hierarchy

         Item
             Bool
             Maybe (of `a)
             Undef
             Defined
                 Value
                     Str
                         Num
                             Int
                         ClassName
                 Ref
                     ScalarRef (of `a)
                     ArrayRef (of `a)
                     HashRef (of `a)
                     CodeRef
                     RegexpRef
                     GlobRef
                     FileHandle
                     Object

   Item
       Accepts any value

   Bool
       Accepts a non-reference that is "undef", an empty string, 0, or 1. It
       also accepts any object which overloads boolification.

   Maybe (of `a)
       A parameterizable type which accepts "undef" or the type "`a". If not
       parameterized this type will accept any value.

   Undef
       Only accepts "undef".

   Value
       Accepts any non-reference value.

   Str
       Accepts any non-reference value or an object which overloads
       stringification.

   Num
       Accepts nearly the same values as "Scalar::Util::looks_like_number",
       but does not accept numbers with leading or trailing spaces,
       infinities, or NaN. Also accepts an object which overloads
       numification.

   Int
       Accepts any integer value, or an object which overloads numification
       and numifies to an integer.

   ClassName
       Accepts any value which passes "Str" where the string is a loaded
       package.

   Ref
       Accepts any reference.

   ScalarRef (of `a)
       Accepts a scalar reference or an object which overloads scalar
       dereferencing.  If parameterized, the dereferenced value must be of
       type "`a".

   ArrayRef (of `a)
       Accepts a array reference or an object which overloads array
       dereferencing. If parameterized, the values in the arrayref must be of
       type "`a".

   HashRef (of `a)
       Accepts a hash reference or an object which overloads hash
       dereferencing. If parameterized, the values in the hashref must be of
       type "`a".

   CodeRef
       Accepts a code (sub) reference or an object which overloads code
       dereferencing.

   RegexpRef
       Accepts a regex object created by "qr//" or an object which overloads
       regex interpolation.

   GlobRef
       Accepts a glob reference or an object which overloads glob
       dereferencing.

   FileHandle
       Accepts a glob reference which is an open file handle, any "IO::Handle"
       Object or subclass, or an object which overloads glob dereferencing and
       returns a glob reference which is an open file handle.

   Object
       Accepts any blessed object.
