Config...ursesUI(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

Config::Model::CursesUI — bestie, it's a whole Curses interface so you can edit config data in a terminal and feel like a hacker 💅

(it's Config...ursesUI(3pm), from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, in case you were wondering 🫶)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use Config::Model ;
use Config::Model::CursesUI ;

my $model = Config::Model -> new ;

my $inst = $model->instance (
   root_class_name => 'XXX',
   instance_name   => 'yyy'
);

# create dialog
my $dialog = Config::Model::CursesUI-> new () ;

# start never returns
$dialog->start($model) ;

okay so look at that last comment. start never returns. Not "usually", not "eventually" — never. It's giving hotel California, no cap. 😭

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So basically this class hands you a Curses::UI interface on top of config data that's being managed by Config::Model. Iconic. Gorgeous. Terminal-based. ✨

IMPORTANT: the literal second your CursesUI object exists, STDOUT and STDERR are being managed by the Curses interface. Which means all your print and warn calls will not work as expected. fr fr. They're not gonna do the thing you think they're gonna do. Consider yourself warned, bestie 💀

🎀 CONSTRUCTOR 🎀

The constructor accepts the following parameters:

• load — a subroutine ref holding the code that loads the configuration data out of the configuration files. This one may override the loading mechanism that the model specified with Config::Model::AutoRead. Heads up: this sub gets called without any arguments. Zero. Nada. 🫶
• store — a subroutine ref holding the code that stores the configuration data into the configuration files. This one may override the writing mechanism the model specified with Config::Model::AutoRead. And same deal: called without any arguments. 👑
