CiderW...::Part(3pm)

CiderW...::Part 🦋💖

okay bestie, gather round 🫶 this is CiderW...::Part, a lil Perl module that lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of your man pages (that's the <3pm> part, iykyk). It's the part-y bit of CiderWebmail — like, one part of a message: a body, an attachment, a lil chunk of a MIME thing. And it has ✨methods✨. So many methods. All of them below, in order, no skips, no cap. 💅

---

🌸 THE METHODS 🌸

main_body_part()

Returns the main body part for using when forwarding/replying the message. 🎀 That's the one you actually want when you hit reply, bestie.

body()

returns the body of the part unless body({ raw => 1}) is specified — converting the body to utf-8 will be attempted. So if you pass raw => 1 you get it as-is, no glow-up. ✨

_decode_body()

attempt a best-effort $charset to utf-8 conversion. It's giving "we'll try our best" energy, not "we promise" energy. 🙈

part_id()

returns the part_id of the part.

body_id()

returns the body_id of the part or undef. Yeah, sometimes it's just undef. Not everyone has a body_id and that's fine. 💀

guess_recipient()

Tries to guess the recipient address used to deliver this message to this mailbox. Used for suggesting a From address on reply/forward. 🔥

handler()

returns a CiderWebmail::Part::FooBar object for the specified part.

icon() {

returns the name of a icon representing the content type fo the part 🎀 (yes, the brace is just there. it's iconic. we don't question it. 💅)

render()

render a CiderWebmail::Part. just a stub - override in CiderWebmail::Part::FooBar. So this one literally does nothing on its own, it's the main character who's waiting for a subclass to show up. 👑

cid()

returns the Content-ID of the part.

content_type()

returns the content type of the CiderWebmail::Part.

name()

returns the name of the part or "(attachment|part) content/type" — like, if there's no real name it'll hand you a placeholder situation. 🌈

file_name()

returns a best-guess file_name if one was supplied or undef. Best-guess!! It's doing its best!! 🫶

is_attachment()

returns true if the body disposition indicates it is an attachment.

bodydisp()

returnes the body disposition hash (if it exists) or undef. ("returnes" — the original said it, I'm keeping it, it's canon 💖)

attachment()

returns true if the bodydisp indicates it is a attachment.

bodyparms()

returnes the bodyparms hash (if it exists) or undef.

uri_download

returns an http url to access the part. 📥

uri_render

returns an http url to render the part. 🖼️

is_root_part

returns true if this part is the root part (RFC822 message). That's the mother of all parts, the OG, the one everything else hangs off of. 👑

🌟 no options, no flags, no env vars, no exit statuses here — this page is just the method roster, and every single one made it in. vv important that nothing got dropped, so nothing got dropped. 💯
