✨ NAME ✨

Atompub::MediaType — bestie, it's a media type object for the Atom Publishing Protocol 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

use Atompub::MediaType qw(media_type);

my $type = media_type('image/png');

"$type";                        # 'image/png'
$type->type;                    # 'image'
$type->subtype;                 # 'png'

$type->extension;               # 'png'

$type->is_a('image/*');         # true
$type->is_a('image/gif');       # false

my $type = media_type('entry');

"$type";                        # 'application/atom+xml;type=entry'
$type->type;                    # 'application'
$type->subtype;                 # 'atom+xml'
$type->parameters;              # 'type=entry'

$type->subtype_major;           # 'xml'

$type->extension;               # 'atom'

$type->is_a('application/xml'); # true
$type->is_a('feed');            # false

okay so literally just strings that know what they are 💅 the way a stringification and a method call give you the same answer is so satisfying 😭✨
