NAME Mandel - Async model layer for MongoDB objects using Mango

VERSION 0.29

SYNOPSIS # create your custom model class package MyModel; use Mojo::Base "Mandel"; 1;

  # create a document class
  package MyModel::Cat;
  use Mandel::Document;
  use Types::Standard 'Str';
  field name => ( isa => Str, builder => sub { "value" } );
  field 'type';
  belongs_to person => 'MyModel::Person';
  1;

  # create another document class
  package MyModel::Person;
  use Mandel::Document;
  use Types::Standard 'Int';
  field [qw( name )];
  field age => ( isa => Int );
  has_many cats => 'MyModel::Cat';
  has_one favorite_cat => 'MyModel::Cat';
  1;

  # use the model in your application
  package main;
  my $connection = MyModel->connect("mongodb://localhost/my_db");
  my $persons = $connection->collection('person');

  my $p1 = $persons->create({ name => 'Bruce', age => 30 });
  $p1->save(sub {
    my($p1, $err) = @_;
  });

  $persons->count(sub {
    my($persons, $err, $n_persons) = @_;
  });

  $persons->all(sub {
    my($persons, $err, $objs) = @_;
    for my $p (@$objs) {
      $p->age(25)->save(sub {});
    }
  });

  $persons->search({ name => 'Bruce' })->single(sub {
    my($persons, $err, $person) = @_;

    $person->cats(sub {
      my($person, $err, $cats) = @_;
      $_->remove(sub {}) for @$cats;
    });

    $person->remove(sub {
      my($person, $err) = @_;
    });
  });

DESCRIPTION THIS IS ALPHA SOFTWARE! THE API MAY BE CHANGED AT ANY TIME! PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS OR FEEDBACK.

Mandel is an async object-document-mapper. It allows you to work with
your MongoDB documents in Perl as objects.

This class binds it all together:

*   Mandel::Model

    An object modelling a document.

*   Mandel::Collection

    A collection of Mandel documents.

*   Mandel::Document

    A single MongoDB document with logic.

ATTRIBUTES Mandel inherits all attributes from Mojo::Base and implements the following new ones.

namespaces The namespaces which will be searched when looking for Types. By default, the (sub)class name of this module.

model_class Returns Mandel::Model.

storage An instance of Mango which acts as the database connection. If not provided.

METHODS Mandel inherits all methods from Mojo::Base and implements the following new ones.

connect $self = $class->connect(@connect_args); $clone = $self->connect(@connect_args);

@connect_args will be passed on to "new" in Mango, which again will be
set as "storage".

Calling this on an object will return a clone, but with a fresh
"storage" object.

all_document_names @names = $self->all_document_names;

Returns a list of all the documents in the "namespaces".

class_for $document_class = $self->class_for($name);

Given a document name, find the related class name, ensure that it is
loaded (or else die) and return it.

collection $collection_obj = $self->collection($name);

Returns a Mango::Collection object.

model $model = $self->model($name); $self = $self->model($name => %model_args); $self = $self->model($name => $model_obj);

Define or returns a Mandel::Model object. Will die unless a model is
registered by that name or "class_for" returns a class which has the
"model()" method defined.

initialize $self->initialize(@names, %args); $self->initialize(%args);

Takes a list of document names. Calls the "initialize" in
Mandel::Document method on any document given as input. @names default
to "all_document_names" unless specified.

%args defaults to empty hash ref, unless specified as input.

The "initialize()" method will be called like this:

  $document_class->initialize($self, \%args);
