π Sympa::Spindle::DoMessage β the manual page, but make it make sense π
okay bestie, welcome to Sympa::Spindle::DoMessage(3Sympa), straight outta the sympa 6.2.80 section 3 manuals. this is the page about the little workflow guy who handles messages that are on their way to your lists. it's giving traffic controller. it's giving bouncer at the club door but polite. let's get into it π
β¨ NAME β¨
Sympa::Spindle::DoMessage β ngl the name is literally the job description: the workflow that handles messages bound for lists. π
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
so, Sympa::Spindle::DoMessage handles a message that's been sent to a list. that's the whole vibe. π
here's the plot twist though: if a message has no special types (meaning it's not a command and it's not from an administrator), the message will be processed. yay, main character message, it gets to go through. β¨
but if it does have those special types? the message gets skipped. sorry babe, not your turn. π
TBD β yes, literally. that's what the original page says, and i'm not about to invent lore that isn't there. to be determined, bestie. we'll find out together. π
π§ Public methods
also peep "Public methods" in Sympa::Spindle::ProcessIncoming β there's more where this came from, iykyk.
new ( key => value, ... )β constructor things, you know the drill. π«Άspin ( )β the actual spinning. in most cases,Sympa::Spindle::ProcessIncomingsplices messages to this class. in ordinal case, these methods are not used at all, so don't come for them. π
