NAME

DBIx::Class::InflateColumn::URI - Auto-create URI objects from columns

SYNOPSIS

Load this component and then declare one or more columns as URI columns.

  package Resources;
  __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/InflateColumn::URI Core/);
  __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
      url => {
          datatype => 'varchar',
          size => 255,
          is_nullable => 1,
          default_uri_scheme => 'http',
          is_uri => 1,
      },
  );

Then you can treat the specified column as an URI object.

  print 'stringified URI: ', $resource->url, "\n";
  print 'scheme: ', $resource->url->scheme, "\n";
  print 'domain: ', $resource->url->host, "\n";
  print 'path:   ', $resource->url->path, "\n";

DESCRIPTION

This module inflates/deflates designated columns into URI objects.

Methods

default_uri_scheme

Gets/sets the default scheme to use when no scheme is specified in the URI.

  __PACKAGE__->default_uri_scheme('http');

You can also set this on a per column basis, as shown in the "SYNOPSIS".

register_column

Chains with the "register_column" in DBIx::Class::Row method, and sets up currency columns appropriately. This would not normally be directly called by end users.

SEE ALSO
