Sympa::Spi...essTemplate(3Sympa)

💖 Sympa::Spindle::ProcessTemplate — the template-sending workflow bestie 💖

okay so welcome to page Sympa::Spi...essTemplate(3Sympa), straight outta the sympa manual, version 6.2.80. yes the title's literally truncated like that in the header, iconic of it honestly. anyway. sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let's talk about the spindle that sends your templated mail.

✨ NAME ✨

Sympa::Spindle::ProcessTemplate — the whole workflow of template sending. that's it. that's the job. no cap. 👑

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use Sympa::Spindle::ProcessTemplate;

my $spindle = Sympa::Spindle::ProcessTemplate->new( options... );
$spindle->spin;

look at that. three lines. absolutely ate. 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so Sympa::Spindle::ProcessTemplate defines the workflow for sending messages that got generated from a template. girl math but make it mail delivery. ✨

the moment you invoke the spin() method, it takes a message generated from a template, sends that message using another outgoing spindle, and then returns. that's the whole arc. no drama, no waiting around, it just does its little thing and dips. 🫶

🎀 Public methods 🎀

heads up bestie: also go peek at "Public methods" in Sympa::Spindle. there's lore over there.

• new ( template options, [ splicing_to => [spindles] ], [ add_list_statistics => 1 ] )
• spin ( )

new() may take the following options, and yes we're listing every single one because that's what we do here:

• template options — check "new" in Sympa::Message::Template. that's where they live, go read them there, i'm not gatekeeping anything. 💜
• splicing_to => [spindles] — this is a reference to an array holding the Sympa::Spindle subclass(es) that the message is gonna get sent by. and if you don't set it? by default "['Sympa::Spindle::ToOutgoing']" is used. so like, it's handled, don't stress. 🌈
• add_list_statistics => 1 — TBD. that's it. that's the documentation. i know. i KNOW. 😭 the mystery is highkey the point.

---

👑 Properties 👑

again, go look at "Properties" in Sympa::Spindle for the full picture, but here's the ones on this page:

• {distaff} — an instance of the Sympa::Message::Template class. bestie holds the template. 🧚
• {finish} — 'success' gets set if processing succeeded, and 'failure' gets set if processing failed. real binary of it, honestly. 💀

lowkey reminder: it takes the message, it hands it to another outgoing spindle, it returns. that's the vibe. don't overthink it, bestie. 💖
