Moose how do you make a coercion fire on every input?

Question

I have an attribute and I'd like to make the coercion fire on every input value. Prior to 0.72 this was done by coercing a Str from a Str. When this feature was removed I resorted to hard-hacking the Meta::TypeConstraint file to keep production code working. Since the release of Moose 2.0 I used to simply make this change commenting out return $_[0] if $self->check($_[0]); sub coerce { my $self = shift; my $coercion = $self->coercion; unless ($coercion) { require Moose; Moose->throw_error("Cannot coerce without a type coercion"); } #return $_[0] if $self->check($_[0]); return $coercion->coerce(@_); } However, making that same change in Moose v2 doesn't work. I'm using this feature for fields that I know I want to clean up with regexes. However, it makes little sense to check if they conform because (almost) none of them will be conform. I use this method for simple things like running a regex on the string, or reformatting the String (which can represent money-notation in the real world to something a db can use).

Answer 1

The only reason I can think of for wanting coercions to fire on every input is if you're using the coercions for their side effects, in which case, I refer you to the time honoured doctor joke: Patient: Doctor, it hurts when I do this. Doctor: Well, don't do that then. I realise you probably have a lot of code to fix, but I don't doubt you'll end up with cleaner code at the end of it.
