|---|
| 443 | MT::Category - Movable Type category record |
|---|
| 444 | |
|---|
| 445 | =head1 SYNOPSIS |
|---|
| 446 | |
|---|
| 447 | use MT::Category; |
|---|
| 448 | my $cat = MT::Category->new; |
|---|
| 449 | $cat->blog_id($blog->id); |
|---|
| 450 | $cat->label('My Category'); |
|---|
| 451 | my @children = $cat->children; |
|---|
| 452 | $cat->save |
|---|
| 453 | or die $cat->errstr; |
|---|
| 454 | |
|---|
| 455 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
|---|
| 456 | |
|---|
| 457 | An I<MT::Category> object represents a category in the Movable Type system. |
|---|
| 458 | It is essentially a wrapper around the category label; by wrapping the label |
|---|
| 459 | in an object with a numeric ID, we can use the ID as a "foreign key" when |
|---|
| 460 | mapping entries into categories. Thus, if the category label changes, the |
|---|
| 461 | mappings don't break. This object does not contain any information about the |
|---|
| 462 | category-entry mappings--for those, look at the I<MT::Placement> object. |
|---|
| 463 | |
|---|
| 464 | =head1 USAGE |
|---|
| 465 | |
|---|
| 466 | As a subclass of I<MT::Object>, I<MT::Category> inherits all of the |
|---|
| 467 | data-management and -storage methods from that class; thus you should look |
|---|
| 468 | at the I<MT::Object> documentation for details about creating a new object, |
|---|
| 469 | loading an existing object, saving an object, etc. |
|---|
| 470 | |
|---|
| 471 | =head1 DATA ACCESS METHODS |
|---|
| 472 | |
|---|
| 473 | The I<MT::Category> object holds the following pieces of data. These fields |
|---|
| 474 | can be accessed and set using the standard data access methods described in |
|---|
| 475 | the I<MT::Object> documentation. |
