SYNOPSIS
# defining the fact class
package MyFact;
use Metabase::Fact::String;
our @ISA = qw/Metabase::Fact::String/;
sub content_metadata {
my $self = shift;
return {
'size' => [ '//num' => length $self->content ],
};
}
sub validate_content {
my $self = shift;
$self->SUPER::validate_content;
die __PACKAGE__ . " content length must be greater than zero\n"
if length $self->content < 0;
}
...and then...
# using the fact class
my $fact = MyFact->new(
resource => 'RJBS/Metabase-Fact-0.001.tar.gz',
content => "Hello World",
);
$client->send_fact($fact);
DESCRIPTION
Base class for facts that are just strings of text. Strings must be
characters, not bytes.
You may wish to implement a "content_metadata" method to generate
metadata about the hash contents.
You should also implement a "validate_content" method to validate the
structure of the hash you're given.
