NAME¶
Type::Tiny::Union - union type constraints
STATUS¶
This module is covered by the Type-Tiny stability policy.
DESCRIPTION¶
Union type constraints.
This package inherits from Type::Tiny; see that for most documentation. Major
differences are listed below:
Attributes¶
- "type_constraints"
- Arrayref of type constraints.
When passed to the constructor, if any of the type constraints in the union
is itself a union type constraint, this is "exploded" into the
new union.
- "constraint"
- Unlike Type::Tiny, you cannot pass a constraint coderef to the
constructor. Instead rely on the default.
- "inlined"
- Unlike Type::Tiny, you cannot pass an inlining coderef to the
constructor. Instead rely on the default.
- "parent"
- Unlike Type::Tiny, you cannot pass an inlining coderef to the
constructor. A parent will instead be automatically calculated.
- "coercion"
- You probably do not pass this to the constructor. (It's not currently
disallowed, as there may be a use for it that I haven't thought of.)
The auto-generated default will be a Type::Coercion::Union object.
Methods¶
- "find_type_for($value)"
- Returns the first individual type constraint in the union which $value
passes.
Overloading¶
- •
- Arrayrefification calls "type_constraints".
