A data::visitor for creating moose objects from blessed placeholders
use MooseX::Blessed::Reconstruct; my $obj = bless( { init_arg_foo => "Blah", arf => "yay", }, "Foo" ); my $proper = MooseX::Blessed::Reconstruct->new->visit($obj); # equivalent to: my $proper = Foo->meta->new_object(%$obj); # but recursive (and works with shared references)
The purpose of this module is to \*(L"fix up\*(R" blessed data into a real Moose object.
This is used internally by MooseX::YAML but has no implementation details having to do with \s-1YAML\s0 itself.
See Data::Visitor Calls \*(L"load_class\*(R" in Class::MOP on the \*(C`ref\*(C' of $object. If there's a metaclass, calls \*(C`visit_object_with_meta\*(C', otherwise \*(C`visit_ref\*(C' is used to walk the object brutishly. Returns a deep clone of the input structure with all the Moose objects reconstructed \*(L"properly\*(R". Uses the metaclass $meta to create a new instance, registers the instance with Data::Visitor's cycle tracking, and then inflates it using \*(L"new_object\*(R" in Moose::Meta::Class. Collapses $obj into key value pairs to be used as init args to \*(L"new_object\*(R" in Moose::Meta::Class.
This module is maintained using Darcs. You can get the latest version from <http://nothingmuch.woobling.org/code>, and use \*(C`darcs send\*(C' to commit changes.
