Specio::Constraint::StUseruContributed PeSpecio::Constraint::Structurable(3pm)

NAME
       Specio::Constraint::Structurable - A class which represents
       structurable constraints

VERSION
       version 0.48

SYNOPSIS
           my $tuple = t('Tuple');

           my $tuple_of_str_int = $tuple->parameterize( of => [ t('Str'), t('Int') ] );

DESCRIPTION
       This class implements the API for structurable types like "Dict",
       "Map"< and "Tuple".

API
       This class implements the same API as Specio::Constraint::Simple, with
       a few additions.

   Specio::Constraint::Structurable->new(...)
       This class's constructor accepts two additional parameters:

       •   parameterization_args_builder

           This is a subroutine that takes the values passed to "of" and
           returns a hash of named arguments. These arguments will then be
           passed into the "structured_constraint_generator" or
           "structured_inline_generator".

           This should also do argument checking to make sure that the
           argument passed are valid. For example, the "Tuple" type turns the
           arrayref passed to "of" into a hash, along the way checking that
           the caller did not do things like interleave optional and required
           elements or mix optional and slurpy together in the definition.

           This parameter is required.

       •   name_builder

           This is a subroutine that is called to generate a name for the
           structured type when it is created. This will be called as a method
           on the "Specio::Constraint::Structurable" object. It will be passed
           the hash of arguments returned by the
           "parameterization_args_builder".

           This parameter is required.

       •   structured_constraint_generator

           This is a subroutine that generates a new constraint subroutine
           when the type is structured.

           It will be called as a method on the type and will be passed the
           hash of arguments returned by the "parameterization_args_builder".

           This parameter is mutually exclusive with the
           "structured_inline_generator" parameter.

           This parameter or the "structured_inline_generator" parameter is
           required.

       •   structured_inline_generator

           This is a subroutine that generates a new inline generator
           subroutine when the type is structured.

           It will be called as a method on the Specio::Constraint::Structured
           object when that object needs to generate an inline constraint. It
           will receive the type parameter as the first argument and the
           variable name as a string as the second.

           The remaining arguments will be the parameter hash returned by the
           "parameterization_args_builder".

           This probably seems fairly confusing, so looking at the examples in
           the Specio::Library::Structured::* code may be helpful.

           This parameter is mutually exclusive with the
           "structured_constraint_generator" parameter.

           This parameter or the "structured_constraint_generator" parameter
           is required.

   $type->parameterize(...)
       This method takes two arguments. The "of" argument should be an object
       which does the Specio::Constraint::Role::Interface role, and is
       required.

       The other argument, "declared_at", is optional. If it is not given,
       then a new Specio::DeclaredAt object is creating using a call stack
       depth of 1.

       This method returns a new Specio::Constraint::Structured object.
