object.attribute = 10
is very common "pythonic" code.
Doing something like object->{attribute}=10 is not only very uncommon in Perl but also heavily frowned upon.
I'm not sure where you get this "very uncommon in Perl" from. Unless you're using one of the Moo* object builders (or Class::Accessor), this is how you set vales.
Also, DBI does that as well (but uses tie) behind the curtain.
Depending on the size of your team and the rate of change of the code (and abstraction), this is bad practice, but Perl has gone a long time without doing the Java-style explicit setters and getters.

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).
