Config...tLayer(3pm)

🎀 Config::Model::models::Itself::ConfigReadWrite::DefaultLayer 🎀

okay bestie, so this is the Config...tLayer(3pm) page from your friendly neighbourhood User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's genuinely a lil gem. it's the manual for Config::Model::models::Itself::ConfigReadWrite::DefaultLayer — say that five times fast, i dare you 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

Config::Model::models::Itself::ConfigReadWrite::DefaultLayer — the Configuration class Itself::ConfigReadWrite::DefaultLayer

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so basically these are the Configuration classes used by Config::Model. that's the whole vibe. periodt. 🫶

---

🌸 Elements 🌸

🦋 config_dir

Optional. Type <code>uniline</code>. that's it, that's the entry, no notes 💀

🍓 os_config_dir — configuration file directory for specific OS

okay so this one is giving "i contain multitudes" energy. you use it to specify an alternate location of a configuration directory, and the location depends on the OS — like, the OS as returned by <code>$^O</code> or <code>$Config{'osname'}</code> (peep <code>"PLATFORMS" in perlport</code> for the deets, iykyk).

common values for <code>$^O</code> are:

• <code>'linux'</code>
• <code>'MSWin32'</code>
• <code>'darwin'</code>

Optional. Type <code>hash of uniline</code>. a whole lil hash, slay ✨

💜 file — target configuration file name

so you use this to specify the configuration file name. but bestie, listen — this parameter may not be applicable depending on your application. it may also be hardcoded in a custom backend, so don't come for me if it doesn't do anything 🙈

if you don't specify it, the instance name is used as the base name for your configuration file. the configuration file name can be specified with the <code>&index()</code> or <code>&element</code> function.

if you wanna go deeper, go check out the backend specifications at <code>http://search.cpan.org/dist/Config-Model/lib/Config/Model/BackendMgr.pm#Backend_specification</code> and also <code>Config::Model::Role::ComputeFunction</code>. no cap, they're worth the read 🧚

Optional. Type <code>uniline</code>.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

• <code>cme</code> — that's the one, that's the icon 🔥

ngl the whole thing is basically "here's three optional elements, go wild" and honestly? we love a low-maintenance queen 👑
