Catalyst::Controller::Accessors - Accessors for a namespaced stash

=head1 VERSION

version 0.003001

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 package MyApp::Controller::Users::Roles;

 use Moose;
 use Catalyst::Controller::Accessors;

 use namespace::autoclean;

 BEGIN { extends 'Catalyst::Controller' };

 cat_has user => (
   is => 'ro',
   namespace => 'MyApp::Controller::Users',
 );

 cat_has thing => ( is => 'rw' );

 use Check::ISA;
 cat_has resultset => (
    is => 'rw',
    isa => sub {
      die 'resultset needs to be a DBIx::Class::ResultSet, but you passed "$_[0]"'
         unless obj($_[0], 'DBIx::Class::ResultSet')
    }
 );

 # slot lets us use a different underlying field
 cat_has other_user => (
   is => 'ro',
   namespace => 'MyApp::Controller::Users',
   slot => 'user',
 );

 sub load_rs {
   my ($self, $c) = @_;

   $self->resultset($c,
      $self->user($c)->roles
   );
 }

 sub load_thing {
   my ($self, $c, $id) = @_;

   $self->thing($c,
      $self->resultset($c)->find($id)
   );
 }

 sub get_user {
   my ($self, $c) = @_;

   $c->response->body($self->thing($c)->name);
 }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The overall idea for this module is to allow more sensible access to the stash.
It merely namespaces the stash based on the name of the controller adding the
accessor or the specified namespace.  It's prime purpose is for chaining.
