App::P...d::new(3pm)

✨ App::Pinto::Command::new — it's giving "brand new stack" energy ✨

okay bestie, quick vibe check: this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation for App::Pinto::Command::new, and it's literally all about making a fresh, empty stack. no cap. 💖

💫 VERSION 💫

version 0.14 — yes she's serving vintage, we love her for it 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

pinto --root=REPOSITORY_ROOT new [OPTIONS] STACK

that's the whole move. pinto with your --root=REPOSITORY_ROOT, then new, then whatever [OPTIONS] you're feeling, then the STACK name. periodt. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, this command creates a new empty stack. that's it, that's the plot. ✨

quick note though — if you want a stack that's not empty, or a stack cloned off another one, go look at the copy command instead. and if you already made your stack and now you're like "hmm, actually I want to change stuff about it," that's the props command's whole job. iykyk. 💜

👑 COMMAND ARGUMENTS 👑

the one required argument is the name of the stack you want to create. like, you have to give her a name, she's not gonna name herself.

stack names have rules, bestie, and they are: alphanumeric plus hyphens and underscores. that's it, that's the guest list. also they are not case sensitive, so MyStack and mystack are the same girl. 🫶

🌈 COMMAND OPTIONS 🌈

• --default — also marks this new stack as the default stack. like, she's the main character now. 👑
• --description=TEXT — or -d TEXT — uses TEXT as the description of the stack. give her a little bio, she deserves it. 📝
• --target-perl-version=VERSION — or --tpv=VERSION — sets the target perl version for the stack. here's the tea: Pinto will never pull distributions for prerequisites that are already satisfied by the core of the target perl version. so like, why grab something you already have, right? 🍓

now, VERSION has to be a valid version number for an existing release of perl 5. not vibes, not a guess — an actual release. and if you don't say anything? it defaults to the global target Perl version of this repository. 💀
