6 Type::Tiny::Union - union type constraints
7
9 This module is covered by the Type-Tiny stability policy.
10
12 Union type constraints.
13
14 This package inherits from Type::Tiny; see that for most documentation.
15 Major differences are listed below:
16
17 Attributes
18 "type_constraints"
19 Arrayref of type constraints.
20
21 When passed to the constructor, if any of the type constraints in
22 the union is itself a union type constraint, this is "exploded"
23 into the new union.
24
25 "constraint"
26 Unlike Type::Tiny, you cannot pass a constraint coderef to the
27 constructor. Instead rely on the default.
28
29 "inlined"
30 Unlike Type::Tiny, you cannot pass an inlining coderef to the
31 constructor. Instead rely on the default.
32
33 "parent"
34 Unlike Type::Tiny, you cannot pass an inlining coderef to the
35 constructor. A parent will instead be automatically calculated.
36
37 "coercion"
38 You probably do not pass this to the constructor. (It's not
39 currently disallowed, as there may be a use for it that I haven't
40 thought of.)
41
42 The auto-generated default will be a Type::Coercion::Union object.
43
44 Methods
45 "find_type_for($value)"
46 Returns the first individual type constraint in the union which
47 $value passes.
48
49 "stringifies_to($constraint)"
50 See Type::Tiny::ConstrainedObject.
51
52 "numifies_to($constraint)"
53 See Type::Tiny::ConstrainedObject.
54
55 "with_attribute_values($attr1 => $constraint1, ...)"
56 See Type::Tiny::ConstrainedObject.

58 Overloading
59 ยท Arrayrefification calls "type_constraints".
