NAME

List::Objects::WithUtils::Array::Typed - Type-checking array objects

SYNOPSIS

  use List::Objects::WithUtils 'array_of';

  use Types::Standard -all;
  use List::Objects::Types -all;

  my $arr = array_of( Int() => 1 .. 10 );
  $arr->push('foo');  # dies

  my $arr_of_arrs = array_of( ArrayObj );
  $arr_of_arrs->push([], []);     # coerces to ArrayObj

DESCRIPTION

A List::Objects::WithUtils::Array subclass providing type-checking via Type::Tiny types.

The first argument passed to the constructor should be a Type::Tiny type:

  use Types::Standard -all;
  my $arr = array_of Str() => qw/foo bar baz/;

Elements are checked against the specified type when the object is constructed or new elements are added.

If the initial type-check fails, a coercion is attempted.

Values that cannot be coerced will throw an exception.
