"It's recommended to always make an Moo attribute lazy unless there's a good reason for it not to be."

Recommended by whom? Plenty of attributes simply don't have any sensible default value. For many attributes, having them unset is itself meaningful. (For example, if you object has an output_file attribute, leaving it unset might indicate that you don't want it to produce any output.) And if the default is a simple value (like 0, 1, undef, or the empty string) then making it eager (i.e. not lazy) may have performance benefits.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
