💅 Test2::EventFacet::Meta 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to Test2::EventFacet::Meta from the Perl Programmers Reference Guide — a whole facet whose entire job is holding meta-data. that's it. that's the vibe. ✨

🦋 NAME 🦋

Test2::EventFacet::Meta — the facet for meta-data, and yes she's exactly what she says on the tin. 💖

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like… this facet can contain any random meta-data that has been attached to the event. literally anything. no cap. it's the little backpack 🎒 that events carry around, and whatever's in there is between you and the event, bestie.

🎀 METHODS AND FIELDS 🎀

okay this is the part where it gets kinda unhinged and I mean that affectionately. 💀

Any/all fields and accessors are autovivified into existence. The way that nobody knows what metadata might get added?? so any is allowed. it's giving "no rules, just vibes," and honestly? iconic. periodt. 👑

so you got your two access styles, both valid, both slaying:

  • $anything = $meta->{anything} — grab it like a hash key, direct and casual 💅
  • $anything = $meta->anything() — or call it like a method accessor, all fancy ✨

that's it. that's the whole API. you want $meta->{vibes}? she exists now. you want $meta->vibes()? sure, also exists. autovivification said "say less." 🫶
