# DBIx::Class::Serialize::Storable(3pm)

## NAME

```
    DBIx::Class::Serialize::Storable - hooks for Storable nfreeze/thaw
```

## DEPRECATION NOTE

This component is now **DEPRECATED**. It has not been providing any useful functionality for quite a while, and in fact destroys prefetched results in its current implementation. Do not use!

## SYNOPSIS

```
    # in a table class definition
    __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/Serialize::Storable/);
    # meanwhile, in a nearby piece of code
    my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->find(12);
    # if the cache uses Storable, this will work automatically
    $cache->set($cd->ID, $cd);
```

## DESCRIPTION

This component adds hooks for Storable so that result objects can be serialized. It assumes that your result object class (`"result_class"`) is the same as your table class, which is the normal situation.

## HOOKS

The following hooks are defined for Storable - see the documentation for "Hooks" in Storable for detailed information on these hooks.

### STORABLE\_freeze

The serializing hook, called on the object during serialization. It can be inherited, or defined in the class itself, like any other method.

### STORABLE\_thaw

The deserializing hook called on the object during deserialization.
