MooX::LvalueAttribute

Lvalue attributes support for Moo, the light Perl object system.

First we had the old school perl (the convenient but fragile)

$$self{x} += 2

Then we had the Moo way (robust but boring to read and write)

$self->x( $self->x + 2 )

But still we were frustated because perl6 and ruby does it better. Now we have MooX::LvalueAttribute (convenient and robust)

$self->x += 2

Of course it works with all the operators including (re)affectation.

$self->x   = 2;
$self->y //= 10;

Learn about :lvalue from the subroutines section of the perl documentation.
