Manual

       Sub::HandlesVia allows you to delegate methods from your class to the values of your objects' attributes.

       Conceptually, it allows you to define "$object->push_number($n)" to be a shortcut for
       "$object->numbers->push($n)" except that "$object->numbers" is an arrayref, so doesn't have methods you
       can call on it like "push".

       Mite 0.009000 and above have built-in "handles_via" support. Mite will co-operate with Sub::HandlesVia to
       implement "handles_via" and avoid your project having a Sub::HandlesVia dependency!

   WhichMethodsCanBeDelegatedTo?
       The "handles_via" option indicates which library of methods should be available. Valid values include
       Array, Blessed, Bool, Code, Counter, Enum, Hash, Number, Scalar, and String.

       An arrayref can be provided for "handles_via", though many of the options are conceptually contradictory.

        handles_via => [ 'Number', 'Scalar' ]

   "useSub::HandlesVia"
       Mite goes to a lot of effort to avoid you needing to "use Sub::HandlesVia" directly in your classes and
       roles, and thus avoid you needing to add it as a dependency.

       However, there are edge cases that it might not handle. In these cases, you should be able to "use
       SubHandlesVia" in your code after your "use MyApp::Mite" and Sub::HandlesVia will intervene and make
       things work. This adds a dependency on Sub::HandlesVia though.

        package MyApp::Kitchen {
          use MyApp::Mite;
          use Sub::HandlesVia;

          has food => (
            is          => 'ro',
            isa         => 'ArrayRef[Str]',
            handles_via => 'Array',
            default     => sub { [] },
            handles     => {
              'add_food'    => 'push',
              'find_food'   => 'grep',
            },
          );
        }

       Now Mite will no longer generate "add_food" and "find_food" methods in your Kitchen.pm.mite.pm file when
       you run "mite compile". Instead, Sub::HandlesVia will generate them at run-time when your application
       runs.
