💖 UR(1p) — the ur era begins 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this is the manpage for ur — and yes, it's the User Contributed Perl Documentation one, section 1p, we're being very specific here. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ur — command-line interface to UR. that's it, that's the whole name section, she's concise and she knows it 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so the ur command is the entry point for a whole suite of tools whose job is to create and manage a module tree of UR classes, data sources, and views. like, it's giving head-girl-of-the-source-tree energy. 👑

it also includes launchers for some built-in services, so yeah, she does a lil bit of everything. main character behavior fr fr.

🦋 SUB-COMMANDS 🦋

ngl, you gotta go read the help on the specific sub-commands for the deets — this page is just the ✨vibe check✨ overview. but here's the roster, bestie:

  • init NAMESPACE [DB] — initialize a new UR app in one command
  • define ... — define namespaces, data sources and classes
  • describe CLASSES-OR-MODULES — show class properties, relationships, meta-data
  • update ... — update parts of the source tree of a UR namespace
  • list ... — list objects, classes, modules
  • sys ... — service launchers
  • test ... — tools for testing and debugging

🧚 DEVELOPMENT 🧚

💜 PWD 💜

running this WITHIN the source tree of a UR namespace will automatically "use lib" your tree. yes, automatically. she just knows. 🔥

a message will appear to STDERR when this occurs. so like, don't panic when your terminal starts yapping at you — that's just her announcing herself. 💖

see the <above> module for context-sensitive library usage info. (that's literally how it's written, <above>, i don't make the rules 😭)

🎀 MAC SOFTWARE MODULE API 🎀

looking for the docs on UR.pm on a Mac? bestie, same energy, different capitalization:

try perldoc UR.pm or man UR. on some systems (Mac), perldoc will show this page for both perldoc ur and also perldoc UR — because of filesystem case insensitivity. so if you're like "why is this the same page 😭" — that's why. it's not a glitch, it's the filesystem being chill about case. 🙈

okay so — yes, that's http: and then :: and it looks weird. that is exactly what the original page says. i am not fixing it. i am a messenger. 🫶

this lil masterpiece is from perl v5.32.1, dated 2022-01-17, and she lives under the name UR(1p). mwah. 🍓🎀🦋
