πŸ’– Badger::Data::Facet::List::Size πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to Badger::Data::Facet::List::Size β€” yes the name is a whole mouthful, the manpage header literally gives up halfway and writes it as Badger...t::Size(3pm), and honestly? relatable. it's a Perl module (the (3pm) is giving "user contributed perl documentation", periodt) and it is a validation facet. 🌸


✨ NAME ✨

Badger::Data::Facet::List::Size β€” a validation facet for the size of a list. that's it, that's the whole vibe check. πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so this module implements a validation facet that checks the size of a list. like, it looks at your list and goes "hmm, how many things are in there" and then decides if that's valid or not. no cap. πŸ’…


πŸ‘‘ METHODS πŸ‘‘

this module implements the following method in addition to those it inherits from the base classes Badger::Data::Facet::List, Badger::Data::Facet and Badger::Base. so yeah, it's got main character energy but it still respects its ancestors. 🫢

πŸ’€ validate($list_ref, $type)

this method validates that the size of the list β€” and by size we mean the number of elements, iykyk β€” passed by reference as the first argument equals to the pre-defined size. ✨

so like: you hand it a list ref as $list_ref (first argument, don't forget bestie), plus $type, and it goes "okay does the count match the size that was already defined up in here?" and if it does, slay, validated. πŸ’–
