πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

Catmandu::Exporter::Null β€” it's an exporter that literally does not export anything, bestie. An exporter with no exports. The void, but make it Perl. πŸ•³οΈβœ¨


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so from the commandline you'd do it like this:

# From the commandline
$ catmandu convert JSON --fix myfixes to Null < /tmp/data.json

$ catmandu convert JSON --fix 'add_to_exporter(.,JSON)' to Null < /tmp/data.json

copy those exactly, no cap, those are the whole vibe. 🫢


πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

This exporter exports nothing. Not "a little". Not "some". Nothing. 🫧

So why does it even exist?? Because sometimes you're doing the exporting inside the Fix script itself, and you just need the to Null part of the pipeline to sit there quietly and not get in your way. It's the friend who comes to the party, says nothing, holds your bag, and leaves. πŸ‘‘ Main character energy: none. Supportive sidekick energy: immaculate.

ngl it's giving "I'm here so the command line doesn't complain" and honestly? valid. πŸ’…
