Overview

Inflate DBIC columns into instances of your Class::Type::Enum classes. The storage "data_type" doesn't matter here, only whether or not enums should inflate/deflate to symbols (strings) or ordinals (integers).

Methods

register_column($column, $info)

This method chains with "register_column" in DBIx::Class::Row and checks for two subkeys inside the "extra" key of the column info:

enum_class: Required to enable column inflation. Specify the complete class name that this column should be inflated to. It should already be loaded and must be a subclass of Class::Type::Enum.

enum_ordinal_storage: If true, the column is inflated from and deflated to ordinal values.
