Data::...DCompat(3pm)

👑 NAME 👑

Data::UUID::LibUUID::DataUUIDCompat</p> — your drop-in glow-up replacement for Data::UUID 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use Data::UUID::LibUUID::DataUUIDCompat;

my $uuid_gen = Data::UUID::LibUUID::DataUUIDCompat->new; # Data::UUID->new;

my $bin_uuid = $uuid_gen->create;

okay so literally the only thing you have to do is swap the use line. that's it. that's the whole vibe. everything else stays exactly how you wrote it, no cap. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

bestie, the API lives over in Data::UUID — go read that one, this module is just matching its energy fr fr. 🔥

🚨 the one thing you NEED to know: this module does not support version 3 UUIDs (the namespace-based ones). so create_from_name is faked. 🙈

and then the sentence just... ends. "The UUID" and that's it. the manpage says "The UUID" and then walks away mid-thought like she saw her ex across the room. 💀 iconic honestly. we're preserving her exactly as she is. 🙂
