Hi Dexter,
CPAN namespace considerations aside...
I really like Moose based ORMs, I think all exercises in this direction are
valid.
My critique (warning: I've only skimmed thru your readme):
1) It would be good to see a mention of KiokuDB in a comparison with
DataMapper.
KiokuDB is not really an ORM, but it's important to steer users on that
direction
in case KiokuDB is what they really need.
2) I don't like method-based operators, like "->or", I find them hard to
manage
programmatically. I prefer parameter based querying, like { -or => [ ... ]
}.
As a wishlist (or more like me rambling here), I'd like to see a place to
plug in SQL
result-sets directly, say:
package Person;
...
result_set 'underage' => (
sql => "select * from person where age<18"
);
That way difficult queries (ie: outer joins?) or often-used queries may be
easily
implemented, and special composite (joint) objects may exist.
cheers,
Rodrigo
