BackPA...AsHash(3pm)

✨ BackPAN::Index::Role::AsHash ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation collection — it's BackPAN::Index::Role::AsHash, a Perl role (that's a 3pm manpage, iykyk) whose whole entire job is to dump an object's data out as a plain old hash. 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

BackPAN::Index::Role::AsHash — a role to dump object data as a hash 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

use BackPAN::Index::Role::AsHash;

sub data_methods { return qw(list of data methods) }

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

It's a role. Its purpose in life? To implement <as_hash> in your result objects. That's it, that's the whole vibe. ✨

🧚 Requires

the receiving class — yes, you, the one who's consuming this role — must implement the following:

• data_methods

my @methods = $self->data_methods;

Hands you back a list of methods that get data about the object. That's the list of stuff the role is gonna go grab. 📋

👑 Implements

• as_hash

my $hash = $self->as_hash;

Produces a hash reference representing the object's data, and it builds that whole thing based on <$self->data_methods>. Every key is a method name, and every value is <$self->$method> — so basically it's a cute little method-name → method-result situation. 🔥

ngl that's genuinely the entire module. short queen, does one thing, does it well. periodt. 💜
