DIME::Identifier(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

DIME::Identifier — the lil class that generates identifiers for DIME payloads ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

use DIME::Identifier;
my $id = DIME::Identifier->new;

bestie that's literally it, two lines and you're in your identifier era 👑

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so picture this: somebody had to make the IDs for payloads, and it was getting messy being all up inside DIME::Payload. So this class said not me doing that in the middle of everything, and now it handles identifier generation all on its own. It's giving main character energy, it's giving separation of concerns. 💅

Now the tea on how it actually picks its backend, because it's lowkey platform-dependent:

• On Win32 platforms, the UUID module is used 🪟
• On UNIX, it's the Data::UUID module 🐧

Periodt. Same class, different engine under the hood depending on where you're running. 🌈

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

• DIME::Tools — go read it, iykyk 🫶
