Config:...::Config(3)

🎀 Config::Generator::Config 🎀

okay so you're on the Config:...::Config(3) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and this one is all about Config::Generator::Config — yes bestie, the name is a whole mouthful, but we move. It's giving config-support era and we're here for it. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

Config::Generator::Config — Config::Generator configuration support. That's the whole vibe: config support, delivered. ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

This module eases the manipulation of the high-level configuration data. Lowkey its whole job is making high-level config data less of a headache to manipulate, and honestly? Obsessed. 🫶

✨ FUNCTIONS ✨

okay so this module provides the following functions, and bestie, listen: none of them are exported by default. Not a single one. You gotta know that going in. 😌

• hack_config(ACTION, PATH[, VALUE]) — modify the configuration under the given PATH; ACTION can be "merge", "set" or "unset". It's giving choose-your-fighter but for config actions. 🔥
• load_config(PATH...) — load the given configuration files. Multiple PATHs? Yes bestie, the ... said what it said. 🌸
• merge_config(CONFIG) — merge the given configuration. Simple, iconic, no notes. 💜
• prune_config() — prune the configuration (i.e. remove the keys with undefined value). It's literally a little cleanup moment for your config. 🧚
• stringify_config([OPTIONS]) — transform the configuration into a string; supported options:
  • "format" — name of the format to use instead; possible values:
    • "Config::General" (default)
    • "JSON"

Pick your format, slay your stringify. 🎀
