# NAME MooseX::BuildArgs - Save the original constructor arguments for later use. # SYNOPSIS Create a class that uses this module: package MyClass; use Moose; use MooseX::BuildArgs; has foo => ( is=>'ro', isa=>'Str' ); my $object = MyClass->new( foo => 32 ); print $object->build_args->{foo}; # DESCRIPTION Sometimes it is very useful to have access to the contructor arguments before builders, defaults, and coercion take affect. This module provides a build\_args hashref attribute for all instances of the consuming class. The build\_args attribute contains all arguments that were passed to the constructor. A contrived case for this module would be for creating a clone of an object, so you could duplicate an object with the following code: my $obj1 = MyClass->new( foo => 32 ); my $obj2 = MyClass->new( $obj1->build_args() ); print $obj2->foo(); # AUTHOR Aran Clary Deltac # LICENSE This is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as the Perl 5 programming language system itself.
