Version

   This document describes version v0.73.$Rev: 1 $ of File::DataClass

Synopsis

      use File::DataClass::Schema;

      $schema = File::DataClass::Schema->new
         ( path    => [ 'path to a file' ],
           result_source_attributes => { source_name => {}, },
           tempdir => [ 'path to a directory' ] );

      $schema->source( 'source_name' )->attributes( [ qw( list of attr names ) ] );
      $rs = $schema->resultset( 'source_name' );
      $result = $rs->find( { name => 'id of field element to find' } );
      $result->$attr_name( $some_new_value );
      $result->update;

Description

   Provides methods for manipulating structured data stored in files of
   different formats

   The documentation for this distribution starts in the class
   File::DataClass::Schema

   File::DataClass::IO is a Moo based implementation of IO::Alls API. It
   implements the file and directory methods only

Configuration and Environment

   Defines the distributions VERSION number using a polyglot interpreted
   by both Perl and hooks in the VCS

Subroutines/Methods

   None

Diagnostics

   None

Dependencies

   version

Incompatibilities

   On mswin32 and cygwin it is assumed that NTFS is being used and that it
   does not support mtime so caching on those platforms is disabled

   Due to the absence of an mswin32 environment for testing purposes that
   platform is not supported

   There are no known bugs in this module. Please report problems to
   http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bugs.html?Dist=File-DataClass. Patches are
