NAME
Sub::NonRole - prevent some subs from appearing in a role's API
SYNOPSIS
package My::Role {
use Moose::Role;
use Sub::NonRole;
sub some_function {
...;
}
sub other_function : NonRole {
...;
}
}
package My::Class {
use Moose;
with 'My::Role';
}
My::Class->some_function(); # ok
My::Class->other_function(); # no such method!
DESCRIPTION
This module allows you to mark certain subs within a role as not being
part of the role's API. This means that they will not be copied across
into packages which consume the role.
The subs can still be called as:
My::Role->other_function();
My::Role::other_function();
It should work with Role::Tiny, Moo::Role, Moose::Role and
MooseX::Role::Parameterized roles.
Developer API
"Sub::NonRole->setup_for($role)"
If you wish to import the Sub::NonRole functionality into another
package, this is how to do it.
"$role->meta->non_role_methods"
For Moose roles (but not Moo or Role::Tiny ones) you can access the
"non_role_methods" attribute on the role's meta object to get an
arrayref of non-role method names.
BUGS
Currently when consuming a Moo role within a Moose class, Sub::NonRole
can cause a warning to be issued in the global cleanup phase. This is
unlikely to result in serious problems; it's just annoying.
Please report any other bugs to
