DESCRIPTION¶
MongoDBx::Class::Document is a Moose role meant to be consumed by document
classes. It provides expanded MongoDB documents with some common attributes,
and needed methods for easy updating and deleting of documents.
ATTRIBUTES¶
The following attributes are provided:
_id¶
The document's internal ID, represented as a MongoDB::OID object. This is a
required attribute.
_collection¶
The MongoDBx::Class::Collection object representing the MongoDB collection in
which the document is stored. This is a required attribute.
_class¶
A string. The name of the document class of this document. This is a required
attribute.
OBJECT METHODS¶
The following object methods are provided:
id()¶
oid()¶
Both methods are equivalent. They are convenience methods that return the
documents internal MongoDB OID in string format.
update( [ \%object, [ \%options ] ] )¶
Saves a new version of the document to the database. The behavior of this method
is dependent on the existance or non-existance of an object hash-ref:
If an object hash-ref is provided, all of its key-value pairs are collapsed, and
a $set update is performed on them. For example:
$doc->update({ author => 'Sir Arthur Conan Doyle', year => 1895 }, $options)
Will effectively result in something like this being performed:
$coll->update({ _id => $doc->_id }, { '$set' => { author => 'Sir Arthur Conan Doyle', year => 1895 } }, $options)
If an object hash-ref isn't provided, the entire document object is collapsed
and an aggresive update is performed (i.e. an entirely new version of the
document, representing the current state of the document's attributes, is
saved to the database. For example:
my $doc = find_one($id);
$doc->set_author('Sir Arthur Conan Doyle');
$doc->set_year(1895);
$doc->update;
Will effectively result in something like this being performed:
$coll->update({ _id => $doc->_id }, $collapsed_doc, $options)
You can pass an options hash-ref just like with the "update()" method
of MongoDBx::Class::Collection, but only if you pass an update object also.
Returns the output of MongoDB::Collection's original "update()"
method.
delete()¶
remove()¶
Both methods are equivalent. They are shortcut methods for invoking the
collection's "remove()" method on this document only. So, umm, they
remove the document. But note that this operation does not cascade, so
documents which are considered dependent on this document (such as those that
reference it with "belongs_to") will not be removed too.
INTERNAL METHODS¶
The following methods are only to be used internally.
_database()¶
Convenience method, shortcut for "$doc->_collection->_database".
_connection()¶
Convenience method, shortcut for "$doc->_database->_connection".
_attributes()¶
Returns a list of names of all attributes the document object has, minus
'_collection' and '_class', sorted alphabetically.
_update_self()¶
Used by the "update( \%changes )" method to update the object instance
with the new values.
