# oose(3pm)

syntactic sugar to make Moose one-liners easier

## NAME

oose - syntactic sugar to make Moose one-liners easier

## VERSION

version 2.4001

## SYNOPSIS

```
  # create a Moose class on the fly ...
  perl -Moose=Foo -e 'has bar => ( is=>q[ro], default => q[baz] ); print Foo->new->bar' # prints baz
  # loads an existing class (Moose or non-Moose)
  # and re-"opens" the package definition to make
  # debugging/introspection easier
  perl -Moose=+My::Class -e 'print join ", " => __PACKAGE__->meta->get_method_list'
  # also loads Moose::Util::TypeConstraints to allow subtypes etc
  perl -Moose=Person -e'subtype q[ValidAge] => as q[Int] => where { $_ > 0 && $_ < 78 }; has => age ( isa => q[ValidAge], is => q[ro]); Person->new(age => 90)'
```

## DESCRIPTION

oose.pm is a simple source filter that adds `"package $name; use Moose; use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;"` to the beginning of your script and was entirely created because typing `"perl -e'package Foo; use Moose; ...'"` was annoying me.

## INTERFACE

oose provides exactly one method and it's automatically called by perl:

- **import($package)**

  Pass a package name to import to be used by the source filter. The package defaults to `"Class"` if none is given.

## DEPENDENCIES

You will need Filter::Simple and eventually Moose

## INCOMPATIBILITIES

None reported. But it is a source filter and might have issues there.

## BUGS

See "BUGS" in Moose for details on reporting bugs.
