Specio::Constraint::Structurable->new(...)

• parameterization_args_builder

  This is a subroutine that takes the values passed to "of" and returns a hash of named arguments. These arguments will then be passed into the "structured_constraint_generator" or "structured_inline_generator".

  This should also do argument checking to make sure that the argument passed are valid. For example, the "Tuple" type turns the arrayref passed to "of" into a hash, along the way checking that the caller did not do things like interleave optional and required elements or mix optional and slurpy together in the definition.

  This parameter is required.

• name_builder

  This is a subroutine that is called to generate a name for the structured type when it is created. This will be called as a method on the "Specio::Constraint::Structurable" object. It will be passed the hash of arguments returned by the "parameterization_args_builder".

  This parameter is required.

• structured_constraint_generator

  This is a subroutine that generates a new constraint subroutine when the type is structured.

  It will be called as a method on the type and will be passed the hash of arguments returned by the "parameterization_args_builder".

  This parameter is mutually exclusive with the "structured_inline_generator" parameter.

  This parameter or the "structured_inline_generator" parameter is required.

• structured_inline_generator

  This is a subroutine that generates a new inline generator subroutine when the type is structured.

  It will be called as a method on the Specio::Constraint::Structured object when that object needs to generate an inline constraint. It will receive the type parameter as the first argument and the variable name as a string as the second.

  The remaining arguments will be the parameter hash returned by the "parameterization_args_builder".

  This probably seems fairly confusing, so looking at the examples in the Specio::Library::Structured::* code may be helpful.

  This parameter is mutually exclusive with the "structured_constraint_generator" parameter.

  This parameter or the "structured_constraint_generator" parameter is required.

$type->parameterize(...)

The other argument, "declared_at", is optional. If it is not given, then a new Specio::DeclaredAt object is creating using a call stack depth of 1.

This method returns a new Specio::Constraint::Structured object.
