        has 'code'
            => ( isa => CountryCode,    is => 'rw', coerce => 1 );

        has 'numeric'
            => ( isa => NumericCountry, is => 'rw' ); # you can't coerce
        has 'name'
            => ( isa => CountryName,    is => 'rw', coerce => 1 );

        __PACKAGE__->meta->make_immutable;
    }

    my $foo = Foo->new(
        code    => 'jp',
        alpha2  => 'jp',
        alpha3  => 'jpn',
        numeric => 392,
        name    => 'JAPAN',
    );
    print $foo->code;       # 'JP'
    print $foo->alpha2;     # 'JP'
    print $foo->alpha3;     # 'JPN'
    print $foo->numeric;    # 392
    print $foo->name;       # 'Japan'

DESCRIPTION

This module packages several Moose::Util::TypeConstraints with coercions, designed to work with the values of Locale::Country.

CONSTRAINTS AND COERCIONS

Alpha2Country

A subtype of Str, which should be defined in country code of ISO 3166-1 alpha-2. If you turned coerce on, Str will be upper-case. For example, 'jp' will convert to 'JP'.

CountryCode

Alias of Alpha2Country.

Alpha3Country

A subtype of Str, which should be defined in country code of ISO 3166-1 alpha-3. If you turned coerce on, Str will be upper-case. For example, 'jpn' will convert to 'JPN'.

NumericCountry

A subtype of Int, which should be defined in country code of ISO 3166-1 numeric.

CountryName

A subtype of Str, which should be defined in ISO 3166-1 country name. If you turned coerce on, Str will be same case as canonical name. For example, 'JAPAN' will convert to 'Japan'.

NOTE

Code conversion is not supported

These coercions is not support code conversion. For example, from Alpha2Country to Alpha3Country.

    has country
        => ( is => 'rw', isa => Alpha2Country, coerce => 1 );

    ...

    $foo->country('US');    # does not convert to 'USA'

If you want conversion, could you implement an individual country class with several attributes?

See /examples/complex.pl in the distribution for more details.

The type mapping of MooseX::Getopt

This module provides you the optional type mapping of MooseX::Getopt when MooseX::Getopt was installed.

CountryCode, Alpha2Country, Alpha3Country and CountryName are String ("=s") type.

NumericCountry is Int ("=i") type.

SEE ALSO

INCOMPATIBILITIES

None reported.

TO DO

  • I may add grammatical aliases of constraints/coercions. For example, CountryAsAlpha2 as existent Alpha2Country.

  • I may add namespased types. For example, 'Locale::Country::Alpha2' as export type Alpha2Country.
