It leverages DBIx::Class::Helper::Row::StorageValues for passing in the \&\f(CW$old_value\fR, which do not have to use. If you leave the \&\f(CW\*(C`keep_storage_value\*(C'\fR out of the column definition it will just pass \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR in as the \f(CW$old_value\fR. Also note the \f(CW\*(C`txn_wrap\*(C'\fR option. This allows you to specify that you want the call to \f(CW\*(C`update\*(C'\fR and the call to the method you requested to be wrapped in a transaction. If you end up calling more than one method due to multple column change methods and more than one specify \&\f(CW\*(C`txn_wrap\*(C'\fR it will still only wrap once. .PP I've gone to great lengths to ensure that order is preserved, so \f(CW\*(C`before\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`around\*(C'\fR changes are called in order of definition and \f(CW\*(C`after\*(C'\fR changes are called in reverse order. .PP To be clear, the change methods only get called if the value will be changed after \f(CW\*(C`update\*(C'\fR runs. It correctly looks at the current value of the column as well as the arguments passed to \f(CW\*(C`update\*(C'\fR. .SH "CANDY EXPORTS" .IX Header "CANDY EXPORTS" If used in conjunction with DBIx::Class::Candy this component will export: .IP "before_column_change" 4 .IX Item "before_column_change" .PD 0 .IP "around_column_change" 4 .IX Item "around_column_change" .IP "after_column_change" 4 .IX Item "after_column_change" .PD .SH "METHODS" .IX Header "METHODS" .SS "before_column_change" .IX Subsection "before_column_change" .Vb 6 \& _\|_PACKAGE_\|_\->before_column_change( \& col_name => { \& method => \*(Aqmethod\*(Aq, # <\-\- anything that can be called as a method \& txn_wrap => 1, # <\-\- true if you want it to be wrapped in a txn \& } \& ); .Ve .PP Note: the arguments passed to \f(CW\*(C`method\*(C'\fR will be \&\f(CW\*(C`$self, $old_value, $new_value\*(C'\fR. .SS "after_column_change" .IX Subsection "after_column_change" .Vb 6 \& _\|_PACKAGE_\|_\->after_column_change( \& col_name => { \& method => \*(Aqmethod\*(Aq, # <\-\- anything that can be called as a method \& txn_wrap => 1, # <\-\- true if you want it to be wrapped in a txn \& } \& ); .Ve .PP Note: the arguments passed to \f(CW\*(C`method\*(C'\fR will be \&\f(CW\*(C`$self, $old_value, $new_value\*(C'\fR. .SS "around_column_change" .IX Subsection "around_column_change" .Vb 6 \& _\|_PACKAGE_\|_\->around_column_change( \& col_name => { \& method => \*(Aqmethod\*(Aq, # <\-\- anything that can be called as a method \& txn_wrap => 1, # <\-\- true if you want it to be wrapped in a txn \& } \& ); .Ve .PP Note: the arguments passed to \f(CW\*(C`method\*(C'\fR will be \&\f(CW\*(C`$self, $next, $old_value, $new_value\*(C'\fR. .PP Around is subtly different than the other two callbacks. You \fBmust\fR call \&\f(CW$next\fR in your method or it will not work at all. A silly example of how this is done could be: .PP .Vb 2 \& sub around_change_name { \& my ($self, $next, $old, $new) = @_; \& \& my $govt_records = $self\->govt_records; \& \& $next\->(); \& \& $govt_records\->update({ name => $new }); \& } .Ve .PP Note: the above code implies a weird database schema. I haven't actually seen a time when I've needed around yet, but it seems like there is a use-case. .PP Also Note: you don't get to change the args to \f(CW$next\fR. If you think you should be able to, you probably don't understand what this component is for. That or you know something I don't (equally likely.) .SH "AUTHOR" .IX Header "AUTHOR" Arthur Axel \*(L"fREW\*(R" Schmidt .SH "COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE" .IX Header "COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE" This software is copyright (c) 2014 by Arthur Axel \*(L"fREW\*(R" Schmidt. .PP This is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as the Perl 5 programming language system itself.
