Mojo::Base(3)	      User Contributed Perl Documentation	 Mojo::Base(3)

NAME
       Mojo::Base - Minimal Base Class For Mojo Projects

SYNOPSIS
	 package Cat;
	 use Mojo::Base -base;

	 has 'mouse';
	 has paws => 4;
	 has [qw/ears eyes/] => 2;

	 package Tiger;
	 use Mojo::Base 'Cat';

	 has stripes => 42;

	 package main;

	 my $mew = Cat->new(mouse => 'Mickey');
	 print $mew->paws;
	 print $mew->paws(5)->paws;

	 my $rawr = Tiger->new(stripes => 23);
	 print $rawr->ears * $rawr->stripes;

DESCRIPTION
       Mojo::Base is a simple base class for Mojo projects.

	 # Automatically enables "strict" and "warnings"
	 use Mojo::Base -strict;
	 use Mojo::Base -base;
	 use Mojo::Base 'SomeBaseClass';

       All three forms save a lot of typing.

	 # use Mojo::Base -strict;
	 use strict;
	 use warnings;
	 use feature ':5.10';

	 # use Mojo::Base -base;
	 use strict;
	 use warnings;
	 use feature ':5.10';
	 use Mojo::Base;
	 push @ISA, 'Mojo::Base';
	 sub has { Mojo::Base::attr(__PACKAGE__, @_) }

	 # use Mojo::Base 'SomeBaseClass';
	 use strict;
	 use warnings;
	 use feature ':5.10';
	 require SomeBaseClass;
	 push @ISA, 'SomeBaseClass';
	 use Mojo::Base;
	 sub has { Mojo::Base::attr(__PACKAGE__, @_) }

FUNCTIONS
       Mojo::Base exports the following functions if imported with the "-base"
       flag or a base class.

   "has"
	 has 'name';
	 has [qw/name1 name2 name3/];
	 has name => 'foo';
	 has name => sub {...};
	 has [qw/name1 name2 name3/] => 'foo';
	 has [qw/name1 name2 name3/] => sub {...};

       Create attributes, just like the "attr" method.

METHODS
       Mojo::Base implements the following methods.

   "new"
	 my $instance = BaseSubClass->new;
	 my $instance = BaseSubClass->new(name => 'value');
	 my $instance = BaseSubClass->new({name => 'value'});

       This base class provides a basic object constructor.  You can pass it
       either a hash or a hash reference with attribute values.

   "attr"
	 __PACKAGE__->attr('name');
	 __PACKAGE__->attr([qw/name1 name2 name3/]);
	 __PACKAGE__->attr(name => 'foo');
	 __PACKAGE__->attr(name => sub {...});
	 __PACKAGE__->attr([qw/name1 name2 name3/] => 'foo');
	 __PACKAGE__->attr([qw/name1 name2 name3/] => sub {...});

       Create attributes.  An arrayref can be used to create more than one
       attribute.  Pass an optional second argument to set a default value, it
       should be a constant or a sub reference.	 The sub reference will be
       excuted at accessor read time if there's no set value.

DEBUGGING
       You can set the "MOJO_BASE_DEBUG" environment variable to get some
       advanced diagnostics information printed to "STDERR".

	 MOJO_BASE_DEBUG=1
