Biblio...Simple(3pm)

✨ Biblio::COUNTER::Processor::Simple — the manual page, but make it cute ✨

okay so this is Biblio::COUNTER::Processor::Simple from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and bestie, it's giving simple COUNTER report processor 💅 that's literally the whole name, no notes.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use Biblio::COUNTER::Processor::Simple;
$processor = Biblio::COUNTER::Processor::Simple->new;
$processor->ignore(@events);
$report = $processor->run;

like. three lines. iconic. no cap. 🫶

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the tea, Biblio::COUNTER::Processor::Simple processes a COUNTER report and — and this is the fun part — it prints a verbose stream of data from the report to standard error, while printing the report with corrections to standard output. so it's yapping on stderr and delivering the goods on stdout. main character behavior, honestly. 👑

---

👑 PUBLIC METHODS 👑

🎀 new(%args)

$foo = Biblio::COUNTER::Processor::Simple->new;

that's it, that's the constructor, she's born ✨ (yes the example variable is $foo, we don't question the classics)

🍓 run($file)

$report = $processor->run($what);

Process the given report. periodt. 💖

so $what can be any of these three things and honestly it's flexible like that:

• a file handle 🙈
• the name of a file 📁
• an instance of (a subclass of) Biblio::COUNTER::Report 👑

🌈 ignore(@events)

$processor->ignore(qw/line input output/);

Specify the events to ignore. like a soft block, but for events 💀 the various events are documented in Biblio::COUNTER — go read that one, bestie, iykyk.

---

🧚 INHERITANCE 🧚

Biblio::COUNTER::Processor::Simple is designed to be inheritable. yes she's a mother. she raises subclasses. 💜

---
