💖 DBIx::...Guidgen 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for DBIx::Class::UUIDColumns::UUIDMaker::Win32::Guidgen, from the User Contributed Perl Documentation collection. say it with me: DBIx::...Guidgen(3pm). it's a mouthful, i know, but she's worth it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

DBIx::Class::UUIDColumns::UUIDMaker::Win32::Guidgen — the little subclass that makes uuids using Win32::Guidgen. that's the whole job. she does one thing and she slays at it 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's how you actually use her, copy-paste energy:

package Artist;
__PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/UUIDColumns Core DB/);
__PACKAGE__->uuid_columns( 'artist_id' );
__PACKAGE__->uuid_class('::Win32::Guidgen');

look at that. load_components, then uuid_columns for 'artist_id', then you point uuid_class at '::Win32::Guidgen' and boom — that's the vibe. ✨

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this subclass of DBIx::Class::UUIDColumns::UUIDMaker uses Win32::Guidgen to generate uuid strings. and the format it spits out? literally this:
