Fey::Role::HasAliasName - A role for objects that bring an alias with them

version 0.40

  package My::Thing;

  use Moose;
  with 'Fey::Role::HasAliasName'
      => { generated_alias_prefix => 'THING' };

This role adds an alias_name attribute to objects, as well as some methods for making use of that alias.

The prefix that generated aliases will have, e.g. LITERAL, FUNCTION, etc. Required.

If true, sql_with_alias() will wrap the output of sql() when generating its own output. Default is false.

Returns the current alias name, if any.

  $obj->set_alias_name('my object');

Sets the current alias name.

  $obj->alias('my object')->do_something_else(...);

Sets the current alias name, then returns the object.

Returns the appropriate SQL snippet. sql_with_alias will generate an alias if one has not been set (using generated_alias_prefix, above).

See Fey for details on how to report bugs.
