    #   Declaration mismatch for `drink`

# DESCRIPTION
Text::Xslate::Bridge::TypeDeclaration is a type validator module in [Text::Xslate](https://metacpan.org/pod/Text::Xslate) templates.
The type validation of this module is base on [Type::Tiny](https://metacpan.org/pod/Type::Tiny).
[Type::Tiny](https://metacpan.org/pod/Type::Tiny) type constraints are compatible with Moo, Moose and Mouse.
`declare` interface was implemented with reference to [Smart::Args](https://metacpan.org/pod/Smart::Args).
# DECLARATIONS
## Types::Standard
See [Types::Standard](https://metacpan.org/pod/Types::Standard).
These are imported by default [Text::Xslate::Bridge::TypeDeclaration::Registry](https://metacpan.org/pod/Text::Xslate::Bridge::TypeDeclaration::Registry).
You can not use them unless you import [Types::Standard](https://metacpan.org/pod/Types::Standard) with specifying registry by `registry_class` option.
- `declare(name => 'Str')`
- `declare(user_ids => 'ArrayRef[Int]')`
- `declare(person_hash => 'Dict[name => Str, age => Int]')`
## Class-Type
These are defined by default [Text::Xslate::Bridge::TypeDeclaration::Registry](https://metacpan.org/pod/Text::Xslate::Bridge::TypeDeclaration::Registry) when a name is not found in registry.
- `declare(engine => 'Text::Xslate')`
- `declare(visitor => 'Maybe[My::Model::UserAccount]')`
## Hashref
Hashref is treated as `Dict[... slurpy Any]`.
This is a ** slurpy ** match. Less value is error. Extra values are ignored.
- `declare(account_summary => { name => 'Str', subscriber_count => 'Int', icon => 'My::Image' })`
- `declare(sidebar => { profile => { name => 'Str', followers => 'Int' }, recent_entries => 'ArrayRef[My::Entry]' })`
# OPTIONS
    Text::Xslate->new(
        module => [
            'Text::Xslate::Bridge::TypeDeclaration' => [
                # defaults
                method         => 'declare', # method name to export
                validate       => 1,         # enable validation when truthy
                print          => 1,         # enable printing errors to the output buffer when truthy
                on_mismatch    => 'die',     # error handler ('die', 'warn' or 'none')
                registry_class => undef,     # package name for specifying Type::Registry
            ]
        ]
    );
# APPENDIX
## Disable Validation on Production
Perhaps you want to disable validation in production to prevent spoiling performance on a [Plack](https://metacpan.org/pod/Plack) application.
    Text::Xslate->new(
        module => [
            'Text::Xslate::Bridge::TypeDeclaration' => [
                validate => $ENV{PLACK_ENV} ne 'production',
            ],
        ],
    );
## Use `type-declaration-mismatch` class name
Highlight by css
    .type-declaration-mismatch { color: crimson; }
Lint with [Test::WWW::Mechanize](https://metacpan.org/pod/Test::WWW::Mechanize)
    # in subclass of Test::WWW::Mechanize
    sub _lint_content_ok {
        my ($self, $desc) = @_;
        if (my $mismatch = $self->scrape_text_by_attr('class', 'type-declaration-mismatch')) {
            $Test::Builder::Test->ok(0, $mismatch);
        };
        return $self->SUPER::_lint_content_ok($desc);
    }
