💖 NAME 💖

Lintian::Data::Authority::DocBaseManual — the Lintian interface for manual references, bestie. That's the whole vibe. It's a Perl module, it lives inside the Debian Package Checker Lintian universe, and its whole job description is "manual references." Periodt.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Like, literally just pull it in and go:

use Lintian::Data::Authority::DocBaseManual;

That's it. That's the summoning ritual. 🕯️

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so here's the tea: Lintian::Data::Authority::DocBaseManual gives you a way to load data files for manual references. That's it, that's the function of the whole entire module. It's a loader. It loads. Manual reference data files. Slay. 💅

🎀 CLASS METHODS 🎀

Not me listing every single one because the original page lists every single one and we do not skip. No cap. The source doesn't narrate what each of these does, so I'm just handing you the full roster, exactly as it stands:

  • title
  • shorthand
  • location
  • separator
  • consumer
  • markdown_citation
  • write_line
  • write_data_file
  • find_installable_name
  • refresh

Ten methods, all of them class methods, all of them here for you. Gorgeous lineup honestly. 🌈
