NAME With::Roles - Create role/class/object with composed roles SYNOPSIS use With::Roles; # create class inheriting from My::Class, with My::Role applied my $class = My::Class->with::roles('My::Role'); # create a role with My::Role, then Another::Role applied my $role = My::Role->with::roles('Another::Role'); # generated role can be applied my $obj = My::Class->with::roles($role)->new; # apply role to object $obj->with::roles('Yet::Another::Role'); # applies the role My::Class::Role::My::Role my $another_class = My::Class->with::roles('+My::Role'); DESCRIPTION This module provides a easy to use global function that can be used on any package to create a new package with a set of roles applied. When used on classes, generates a subclass with the given roles applied. When used on roles, generates a new role with the base and given roles applied. When used on objects, applies the roles to the object and returns the object. Compatible with Moose, Moo, Mouse, and Role::Tiny roles and classes. The generated packages will have names based on the original classes and roles. The exact form of the generated names should not be relied on, but should aid with debugging. A shorthand of "+RoleName" can be used for roles named like "MyClass::Role::RoleName". Additional roles applied will continue to base the name on the original class. The package can also provide a method "ROLE_BASE" to return a prefix to use other than "MyClass::Role". "ROLE_BASE" support is experimental, and may be removed or changed in a future version.
