Na tentativa de responderComo instanciar classes Moose de um grande hashAcho que bati em outro lugar onde não entendo totalmente coerções do tipo Moose. Por algum motivo, o código abaixo emite avisos:

You cannot coerce an attribute (departments) unless its type (ArrayRef[Company::Department]) has a coercion at ./test.pl line 12.
You cannot coerce an attribute (employees) unless its type (ArrayRef[Company::Person]) has a coercion at ./test.pl line 23.

mas depois consegue.

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use warnings;
use strict;

package Company;
use Moose;
use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;

has 'id'   => (is => 'ro', isa => 'Num');
has 'name' => (is => 'ro', isa => 'Str');
has 'departments' => (is => 'ro', isa => 'ArrayRef[Company::Department]', coerce => 1);

coerce 'ArrayRef[Company::Department]',
  from 'ArrayRef[HashRef]',
  via { [ map { Company::Department->new($_) } @$_ ] };

package Company::Department;
use Moose;

has 'id'   => (is => 'ro', isa => 'Num');
has 'name' => (is => 'ro', isa => 'Str');
has 'employees' => (is => 'ro', isa => 'ArrayRef[Company::Person]', coerce => 1);

package Company::Person;
use Moose;
use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints;

has 'id'         => (is => 'ro', isa => 'Num');
has 'name'  => (is => 'ro', isa => 'Str');
has 'age'        => (is => 'ro', isa => 'Num');

coerce 'ArrayRef[Company::Person]',
  from 'ArrayRef[HashRef]',
  via { [ map { Company::Person->new($_) } @$_ ] };

package main;

my %hash = (
    company => {
        id => 1,
        name => 'CorpInc',
        departments => [
            {
                id => 1,
                name => 'Sales',
                employees => [
                    {
                        id => 1,
                        name => 'John Smith',
                        age => '30',
                    },
                ],
            },
            {
                id => 2,
                name => 'IT',
                employees => [
                    {
                        id => 2,
                        name => 'Lucy Jones',
                        age => '28',
                    },
                    {
                        id => 3,
                        name => 'Miguel Cerveza',
                        age => '25',
                    },
                ],
            },
        ],
    }
);

my $company = Company->new($hash{company});
use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper $company;

Como isso deve ter sido feito? P.S. Eu tentei simplesmente fazer

coerce 'Company::Department',
  from 'HashRef',
  via { Company::Department->new($_) };

mas morreu horrivelmente.
