💖 Algorithm::Dependency::Item — the whole vibe 💖

okay bestie, so we're in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual, and this lil page is all about Algorithm::Dependency::Item, 3pm-flavored. it's a Perl module, it's cute, it's tiny, and it does exactly one job. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

Algorithm::Dependency::Item — it implements an item in a dependency hierarchy. that's it, that's the whole thing 💅

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 1.112 — she's got a number, and that number is 1.112 ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so, Algorithm::Dependency::Item implements a single item inside the dependency hierarchy. it's genuinely simple, okay? like, lowkey minimal. most of the time it gets created from within a source, and it's not typically created directly by you, bestie. the reason it exists at all is for the people implementing their own source. (See Algorithm::Dependency::Source for details.) 🎀

👑 METHODS 👑

💜 new $id, @depends

the new constructor takes, as its first argument, the id (that's the name) of the item. and any further arguments after that? they're all assumed to be the ids of the other items that this one depends on. like a lil friendship circle of dependencies 🍓

returns a brand new Algorithm::Dependency::Item on success, or undef on error. no in-between, no dramatic monologue, just object or undef 😭

💜 id

the id method returns the id of the item. iconic, straightforward, no notes 💅

💜 depends

the depends method returns — as a list — the names of the other items that this item depends on. it's giving "here's everyone I'm relying on" energy 🌈

and that's the page, bestie!! this was brought to you by perl v5.40.1, dated 2025-09-18, and yes the header truncates the name to Algori...y::Item(3pm) because even manpage formatting has to be extra sometimes 💀 mwah, go build your dependency hierarchy 🦋💖
