Octopus...Taxonomy(3)

💖 Octopus...Taxonomy(3) 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this is Octopussy::Taxonomy, a Perl module from the Octopussy universe, and it's here to handle all things taxonomy — you know, the whole "which devices and which services" vibe. This is from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section 3, so it's a library page, not a command. No cap. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

Octopussy::Taxonomy — literally just the Octopussy Taxonomy module. That's it, that's the name. Short, sweet, iconic. 👑

---

🌸 FUNCTIONS 🌸

this is where the actual slay happens. every sub you get to call lives down here. 💅

🎀 List(\@dev_list, \@serv_list)

Get list of taxonomy entries. you hand it \@dev_list and \@serv_list (both array refs, bestie, don't forget the backslash or it's giving disaster 😭) and it comes back with your taxonomy list. periodt.

🫶 List_And_Any(\@dev_list, \@serv_list)

Same energy as List, except this one also gives you '-ANY-' in the results. so if you want the "any of the above" option in your list, this is your girl. takes \@dev_list and \@serv_list. ✨

🦋 String_List($devices, $services)

takes $devices and $services. that's the whole documented vibe here — no description in the source, so I'm not gonna make stuff up, that would be so not it. 🙈

💀 Unknowns(@taxos)

Returns list of Unknown Taxonomies in @taxos list. so you feed it a bunch of taxonomies and it snitches on the unknown ones. very main character of it honestly. 🔥

🌈 Colors()

No args, no description in the docs. it's giving mystery, it's giving "figure it out". take it as written, bestie. 💜

⭐ Valid_Name($name)

Checks that $name is valid for a Taxonomy name. that's the vibe check right there — pass in a $name and it tells you if the taxonomy name is valid. 🎀

💖 little note: the functions String_List, Unknowns, and Colors don't come with descriptions in the original page, so I'm keeping it honest and not inventing behaviour. what you see is what the docs say, fr fr. 💅

and that's a wrap, bestie — this page came to you from perl v5.22.2, dated 2016-05-04, and it's Octopus...Taxonomy(3). go forth and taxonomy responsibly. mwah. 💋🌸
