The specification should contains key/value pairs where the keys map to class attributes (or input parameters) and the values are L compatible package names.

I> =over 4 =item coerce_attr example 1 # given: synopsis package main; $person = Person->new( name => 'me', ); my $coerce_name = $person->coerce_attr('name'); # bless({value => "me"}, "Venus::String") =back =over 4 =item coerce_attr example 2 # given: synopsis package main; $person = Person->new( name => 'me', ); my $coerce_name = $person->coerce_attr('name', 'myself'); # bless({value => "myself"}, "Venus::String") =back =cut =head2 coerce_into coerce_into(Str $class, Any $value) (Object) The coerce_into method attempts to build and return an object based on the class name and value provided, unless the value provided is already an object derived from the specified class. I> =over 4 =item coerce_into example 1 package main; my $person = Person->new; my $friend = $person->coerce_into('Person', { name => 'friend', }); # bless({...}, 'Person') =back =cut =head2 coerce_onto coerce_onto(HashRef $data, Str $name, Str $class, Any $value) (Object) The coerce_onto method attempts to build and assign an object based on the class name and value provided, as the value corresponding to the name specified, in the data provided. If the C<$value> is omitted, the value corresponding to the name in the C<$data> will be used. I> =over 4 =item coerce_onto example 1 package main; my $person = Person->new; my $data = { friend => { name => 'friend' } }; my $friend = $person->coerce_onto($data, 'friend', 'Person'); # bless({...}, 'Person'), # $data was updated # # { # friend => bless({...}, 'Person'), # } =back =over 4 =item coerce_onto example 2 package Player; use Venus::Class; with 'Venus::Role::Coercible'; attr 'name'; attr 'teammates'; sub coercers { { teammates => 'Person', } } sub coerce_into_person { my ($self, $class, $value) = @_; return $class->new($value); } sub coerce_into_venus_string { my ($self, $class, $value) = @_; return $class->new($value); } sub coerce_teammates { my ($self, $code, $class, $value) = @_; return [map $self->$code($class, $_), @$value]; } package main; my $player = Player->new; my $data = { teammates => [{ name => 'player2' }, { name => 'player3' }] }; my $teammates = $player->coerce_onto($data, 'teammates', 'Person'); # [bless({...}, 'Person'), bless({...}, 'Person')] # $data was updated # # { # teammates => [bless({...}, 'Person'), bless({...}, 'Person')], # } =back =cut =head2 coercers coercers() (HashRef) The coercers method, if defined, is called during object construction, or by the L method, and returns key/value pairs where the keys map to class attributes (or input parameters) and the values are L compatible package names.
