Type::Tiny::Role - type constraints based on the "DOES" method

This module is covered by the Type-Tiny stability policy.

Type constraints of the general form "{ $_->DOES("Some::Role") }".

This package inherits from Type::Tiny; see that for most documentation. Major differences are listed below:

"role"
The role for the constraint.

Note that this package doesn't subscribe to any particular flavour of roles (Moose::Role, Mouse::Role, Moo::Role, Role::Tiny, etc). It simply trusts the object's "DOES" method (see UNIVERSAL).

"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"
Parent is always Types::Standard::Object, and cannot be passed to the constructor.

"stringifies_to($constraint)"
See Type::Tiny::ConstrainedObject.
"numifies_to($constraint)"
See Type::Tiny::ConstrainedObject.
"with_attribute_values($attr1 => $constraint1, ...)"
See Type::Tiny::ConstrainedObject.

Type::Tiny::Role can be used as an exporter.

  use Type::Tiny::Role 'MyApp::Printable';

This will export the following functions into your namespace:

"MyAppPrintable"
"is_MyAppPrintable( $value )"
"assert_MyAppPrintable( $value )"
"to_MyAppPrintable( $value )"

Multiple types can be exported at once:

  use Type::Tiny::Role qw( MyApp::Printable MyApp::Sendable );
