NAME

Badger::Class::Default - class mixin for creating parameter defaults

SYNOPSIS

    package My::Module;
    
    use Badger::Class
        base => 'Badger::Base';
    
    use Badger::Class::Defaults
        username => 'testuser',
        password => 'testpass';
        
    sub init {
        my ($self, $config) = @_;
        $self->init_defaults($config);
        return $self;
    }

DESCRIPTION

This class mixin module allows you to define default values for configuration parameters.

It is still experimental and subject to change.

METHODS

init_defaults($config)

This method is mixed into classes that use it. It creates a composite hash of all $DEFAULTS defined in package variables and updates the $self object using values provided explicitly in the $config hash, or falling back on the $DEFAULTS

See Badger::Class for further details.
