Apache::TS(3)

🌸 Apache::TS 🌸

okay so quick heads up bestie: this page lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation, section 3. That's your manual-name lore for today, we move.

📛 NAME 📛

Apache::TS — a whole little collection of Perl interfaces for managing Apache Traffic Server installations. yes, the whole collection. she's the umbrella, she contains multitudes 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the absolute minimal "hello world" of it, copy-paste ready:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Apache::TS::AdminClient;

my $cli = Apache::TS::AdminClient->new(%input);
my $string = $cli->get_stat("proxy.config.product_company");
print "$string\n";

like, you build the client, you ask for one stat, you print it. that's it. that's the whole vibe check 🎀

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so Apache::TS is the main module for Apache::TS, and it includes the following sub-modules:

• Apache::TS::AdminClient
• Apache::TS::Config
• Apache::TS::Config::Records

and here's the tea: this module — Apache:TS — only defines a set of constants. that's its whole job, no cap. those constants get used by both the sub-modules and scripts. so she's not the loud one, she's the one quietly holding the whole friend group together 🫶

ngl it's giving "backstage main character energy" — you don't see her doing much, but literally nothing works without her.
