Dancer...ecation(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

Dancer::Deprecation — bestie, this is the module that handles deprecation messages, aka it's the one that gently (or not so gently) tells you "girl, that thing you're using is old, move on" 🫶

✨ VERSION ✨

version 1.3522 — yes queen, that's the number, no notes 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

okay so here's the whole vibe, look:

Dancer::Deprecation->deprecated(
  feature => 'sub_name',
  version => '1.3000',
  reason  => '...',
);

that's it, that's the moment. iconic behavior honestly 🌸

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

💜 METHODS 💜

deprecated

so this is the main character method, and here's the full list of possible parameters you can hand it, no cap:

• feature — the name of the feature you're deprecating. like, the thing that's on its way out 🥀
• version — the version from which the feature is deprecated. so, from when exactly did this become a problem 💀
• message — the message to display. your moment to say what you gotta say ✨
• fatal — if you set this to true, it raises a Dancer::Exception (Core::Deprecation) instead of carp. lowkey dramatic, highkey effective 🔥
• reason — why is the feature deprecated? spill the tea, bestie 🍓

and the sweetest part: you can call the method with no arguments at all, and a default message will be built for you using information from "caller". the module literally does the talking for you, we love a self-sufficient icon 👑
