💖 NAME 💖

Catalyst::DispatchType::LocalRegexp — the LocalRegexp DispatchType, bestie 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so this one's a vibe-check-by-reference situation:

See Catalyst::DispatchType.

like, literally just go read that one, i'm not gonna retype the whole thing 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

status check: it's deprecated, no cap 😭

Status: Deprecated. The regex dispatch types have been deprecated and removed from Catalyst core. It is recommend that you use Chained methods or other techniques instead.

fr fr, do NOT build anything new on this. the regex dispatch types have been deprecated and removed from Catalyst core. Chained methods, or literally any other technique, please and thank you 🙏

And here's the part that's giving chaos: as part of the refactoring, the dispatch priority of Regex vs Regexp vs LocalRegex vs LocalRegexp may have changed. Priority is now influenced by when the dispatch type is first seen in your application. So like, order of operations matters now, not some fixed ranking. iykyk 🌈

the warning situation 🚨

When loaded, a warning about the deprecation will be printed to STDERR. To suppress the warning, set the CATALYST_NOWARN_DEPRECATE environment variable to a true value.

that's your one and only escape hatch, bestie. CATALYST_NOWARN_DEPRECATE = true value = silence. that's it.

what this thing actually does 🎀

Dispatch type managing path-matching behaviour using regexes. This simply supports the alternate spelling of LocalRegex. All the work is done in Catalyst::DispatchType::LocalRegex.

so yeah — this module is basically the ~aesthetic~ respelling. LocalRegex but with a p on the end. the actual labour? outsourced. it's giving delegation energy 👑

For more information on dispatch types, see:

• Catalyst::Manual::Intro for how they affect application authors
• Catalyst::DispatchType for implementation information.
