Data::...:UUID36(3pm)

💖 Data::...:UUID36 💖

okay bestie so this is Data::...:UUID36(3pm) — a little page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of your manual, and it's literally just here to explain one specific ID generator for Data::Session. it's giving very focused, very demure, very mindful. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

Data::Session::ID::UUID36 — a persistent session manager 🫶

---

🦋 Synopsis

See Data::Session for details.

that's it. that's the synopsis. iconic honestly. 💅

---

🌸 Description

Data::Session::ID::UUID36 lets Data::Session generate session ids using Data::UUID.

to use this module do this:

• specify an id generator of type UUID36, as in Data::Session -> new(type => '... id:UUID36 ...') ✨

---

👑 Case-sensitive Options

See "Case-sensitive Options" in Data::Session for important information.

no cap, go read that one, it matters. 🔥

---

💅 Method: new()

creates a new object of type Data::Session::ID::UUID36. it's a whole new main character. 💖

new() takes a hash of key/value pairs, some of which might be mandatory. further, some combinations might be mandatory. (yes, plural mandatory. the drama.)

the keys are listed here in alphabetical order.

they are lower-case because they are (also) method names, meaning they can be called to set or get the value at any time. slay.

• verbose => $integer — print to STDERR more or less information. typical values are 0, 1 and 2. this key is normally passed in as Data::Session -> new(verbose => $integer). this key is optional. 🍓

---

⭐ Method: generate()

generates the next session id, or dies if it can't. 😭 periodt.

the algorithm is Data::UUID -> new -> create_str.

returns the new id. 💜

---

🎀 Method: id_length()

returns 36 because that's the number of bytes in a UUID36 digest. ✨

this can be used to generate the SQL to create the sessions table. go off, SQL.

see scripts/digest.pl.
