DBD::Go...y::rush(3)

πŸ’– DBD::Gofer::Policy::rush(3) πŸ’–

okay bestie, we're looking at DBD::Gofer::Policy::rush β€” a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, fr fr. Let's get into it πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

DBD::Gofer::Policy::rush β€” the 'rush' policy for DBD::Gofer. that's the whole name, that's the whole vibe πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

like, this is how you'd actually use it:

  $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Gofer:transport=...;policy=rush", ...)

look at that. policy=rush. tucked right in there. iconic ✨


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so basically, the "rush" policy is trying its absolute hardest to make as few round-trips as possible. round-trips are expensive, bestie, and rush said "not on my watch" πŸ’…

it sits at the complete opposite end of the policy spectrum from the "pedantic" policy. pedantic wants to double-check everything, rush wants to get in and get out. two ends of the spectrum, both valid, both living their truth 🌈

heads up: temporary docs situation!! the list of policies and their defaults lives in the source code β€” go look there, this page isn't gonna hand it to you πŸ™ˆ

and there's more coming: in a future version, the policies and their defaults will be defined in the pod and parsed out at load-time. so right now it's source code, later it's pod. character development ✨

okay so that's the whole page!! no options, no env vars, no exit statuses, no bugs to warn you about β€” just a small, very focused policy module doing its little rush thing 🧚

and for the cute sign-off: this was perl v5.42.3, dated 2026-10-19, and yes it's still DBD::Go...y::rush(3) up in the header because the page name got truncated like that. slay πŸ’…β­
