# Forest::Tree::Roles::MetaData(3pm)

A role mixin to support tree node metadata

## NAME

Forest::Tree::Roles::MetaData - A role mixin to support tree node metadata

## DESCRIPTION

This role mixin adds support for each tree node to have arbitrary metadata stored in a HASHref. The metadata is inherited in the tree as well, so a child will inherit the parents metadata.

This is really useful, at least for me it is :)

## ATTRIBUTES

- *metadata*

  ## METHODS

- **fetch\_metadata\_for ($key)**

  This will first check locally, if it doesn't fund anything then will climb back to the root looking.

## BUGS

All complex software has bugs lurking in it, and this module is no exception. If you find a bug please either email me, or add the bug to cpan-RT.
