💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, meet Badger::Data::Facet::Text — the base class for text validation facets ✨ (it's Badger...t::Text(3pm) in the man page header, but you know her full name now 🫶). She's user-contributed Perl documentation and she's here to vibe-check your strings.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So like, this module implements a base class for text validation facets. That's the whole tea 🍵 — she's the blueprint the other text-y facets build on. No cap.

✨ METHODS ✨

This module implements the following methods in addition to those it inherits from the Badger::Data::Facet and Badger::Base base classes. So yes, she comes with family benefits 👑 — those inherited methods are still yours, these are just the bonus ones she brings to the group chat.

💅 validate($value)

Asserts that the $value — which gets passed by reference as an argument, bestie, don't forget the reference part 😤 — is a text string, OR an object with an overloaded auto-stringification operator that lets it behave like a text string. Basically: real string, or a glow-up object that can pass as one. Either way she says slay and validates it. 🦋
