💖 Test2::EventFacet::About — the vibe check page 💖

okay bestie, you found Test2::EventFacet::About(3perl), from the Perl Programmers Reference Guide, no big deal, just a little facet living its truth ✨

✨ NAME ✨

Test2::EventFacet::About — the facet that's literally just holding the event's details, like the event's little ID card 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So this facet is the one that carries the info about the event — things like which package the event came from. It's giving backstage pass energy: it knows who the event is and where it's from 👑

💅 FIELDS 💅

Every field here gives you two ways in — the raw hash key (like $about->{details}) and the cute method call (like $about->details()). Same data, pick your fave, both are valid, both iconic 🫶

  • $string = $about->{details}</p> $string = $about->details()</p> — A short lil summary about the event. String, so it's text-y. 📝
  • $package = $about->{package} $package = $about->package() — The name of the event's package. That's the package the event belongs to, periodt. 📦
  • $bool = $about->{no_display} $bool = $about->no_display() — This one's a boolean, and if it's true it means formatters should skip this event entirely. It's the "do not perceive me" flag 🙈
  • $uuid = $about->{uuid} $uuid = $about->uuid() — This gets set to a uuid if uuid tagging was enabled. Not enabled? Then no uuid, bestie. 🔖
  • $uuid = $about->{eid} $uuid = $about->eid() — A unique identifier for the event — unique for the test job, to be clear. (Yes it's labeled $uuid in the docs, yes the field is eid, we're just keeping it real and keeping it exact 💀) 🆔
