👑 Case-sensitive Options 👑

See "Case-sensitive Options" in Data::Session for important information. Go read it, it's important fr fr. 👀

---

🧚 Method: new() 🧚

Creates a new object of type Data::Session::Serialize::DataDumper. New object, who dis. ✨

new() takes a hash of key/value pairs, some of which might be mandatory. Further, some combinations might be mandatory. So like, read carefully, bestie, this is the part where the vibes check your homework. 😭

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. Yes, they're double agents. 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.

Returns $data frozen by Data::Dumper. Ice cold. 🧊

---

🌈 Method: thaw($data) 🌈
