Catman...y_equal(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

Catmandu::Fix::Condition::any_equal — the fix that runs your fixes when at least one of the path values equals a string value. bestie this is 3pm energy, Perl-contributed-docs girlies rise 🫶

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so real talk: this fix is the simple alternative to Catmandu::Fix::Condition::any_match. like, the chill version. the no-drama version. 💅

No regular expressions are involved. none. zero. not a single one. we are not doing regex today, bestie, we are simply vibing.

Strings get compared using the regular operator 'eq'. that's it, that's the whole mechanic, no cap. 🔥

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

# any_equal(X,Y) is true when at least one value of the array X equals 'Y'
if any_equal('years.*','2018')
 add_field('my.funny.title','true')
end

# any_equal(X,Y) is false when none of the values of X equal 'Y'

like look at her go 🌸 — if even one value in that array matches '2018', the add_field happens. if none of them do, it's a no. simple as that, periodt.
