Bug #41852 for MooseX-Role-Matcher:

Sun Dec 21 17:10:57 2008 hanenkamp [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

I'm working on Net::Google::PicasaWeb and am looking at using MooseX::Role::Matcher with it. However, I would like to be able to do deep matching on attributes. I.e., with a syntax something like: if ($album->match('photo.title' => qw/OSCON/)) { print $album->title, " matches.\n"; } I.e., if an attribute being matched is another Moose object that does MooseX::Role::Matcher, I would like to be able to drill into it's attributes as well. If you're interested, I can contribute a patch to Matcher.pm. If you are not, I will add a new module to CPAN called MooseX::Role::DeepMatcher. Thanks for the module. It works great for me. Cheers, Sterling

Yeah, that sounds like a reasonable thing to do. As for the interface, how does using a hashref sound? Something like if ($album->match(photo => { title => qw/OSCON/ })) { print $album->title, " matches.\n"; } where the hashref contains a match specification exactly like what you would pass to the match function normally. I think that would be a bit cleaner. I'll get that written for a 0.02 release, but probably not for another week or two, since I'm currently on vacation. Thanks, Jesse

Rereading my response, I didn't mean to sound like I would be against a patch if you wanted to provide one - feel free if you're going to have more time over these next couple weeks(: Jesse

Sure, since my vacation ended and I spent most of my vacation rotting my brain with my Wii, I probably won't have a chance to get back to it either, but if I do before I see a .02 release, I may try. Cheers, Sterling

MooseX::Role::Matcher-0.02 has been released with support for submatching. Hopefully this should be able to handle your requirements(:
