LINTIAN::PROCESSABLE::SOURCE::COMPONENTS(3)

💖 Lintian::Processable::Source::Components 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the Lintian manual — section 3, the Debian Package Checker corner of the world — and the module in question is Lintian::Processable::Source::Components. say it with me now: interface to orig tar components ✨

---

🌈 NAME 🌈

Lintian::Processable::Source::Components — literally just the interface to orig tar components. that's the whole vibe.

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

like, here's how you'd actually pull it into your code, no cap:

use Moo;

with 'Lintian::Processable::Source::Components';

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so Lintian::Processable::Source::Components hands you an interface to all the data about upstream source components. it's giving "backstage pass to the tarball situation."

and here's the tea: most sources only use one tarball. one. singular. that's it. so if you were expecting a whole ensemble cast of tarballs, bestie, usually it's a solo act. 💅

---

👑 INSTANCE METHODS 👑

components

returns a reference to a hash containing information about source components listed in the .dsc file.

• the key is the filename 🍓
• the value is the name of the component ✨

that's it, that's the method. keys and values, filename to component name, iconic behaviour honestly.
