DBIx::VersionedSubs::Hash - store subroutines in a simple hash
package My::App; use strict; use base 'DBIx::VersionedSubs::Hash'; __PACKAGE__->{code} = { say_hello => sub {print "Hello World"}, }; package main; use strict; my $app = My::App->new({code => {},dsn => $dsn ); while (my $request = Some::Server->get_request) { $app->update_code(); # update code from the DB $app->handle_request->($request); }
This module overrides some methods in DBIx::VersionedSubs and replaces the normal namespace based code storage with simple storage in a hash. This is useful if you want multiple code versions in a mod_perl environment for example.
Package->new({ %ARGS })
Creates a new object and initializes it from the class default values as inherited from DBIx::VersionedSubs.
If you pass in a hashref to the code
key, all subroutines will be stored in it. You can also use this feature to pass in a package hash (like %My::App::
), then this module will be almost identical in usage to DBIx::VersionedSubs itself. The difference between the two is that subroutine names with characters outside of \w
will not create subroutines in other namespaces with this module.
$app->dispatch( FUNCTION, ARGS )
This is a shorthand method for
return $self->{code}->{$function}->(@ARGS);
except with error checking
