✨ NAME ✨

👑 SYNOPSIS 👑

my $copy = Debian::Copyright::Stanza::Files->new(\%data);
print $copy;                         # auto-stringification

like… you make one, you print it, it stringifies itself. main character energy, no notes. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So Debian::Copyright::Stanza::Files is your girl for representing and manipulating a "Files:" stanza from Debian copyright files, and she does it the object-oriented way 💁‍♀️

And the way she just… converts herself into a textual representation whenever you use her in string context?? obsessed. literally auto-stringification. 💅

🎀 FIELDS 🎀

heads up: real copyright fields can lowkey have dashes in their names. those get swapped out for underscores. no cap. 🔥

• Files
• License
• Copyright
• Comment

🌈 CONSTRUCTOR 🌈

new( { field => value, ... } )

makes you a brand new Debian::Copyright::Stanza::Files object, and if you want, it'll initialise itself with whatever data you hand it. optional, but why wouldn't you 🫶

---

💜 METHODS 💜

is_or_separated($field)

returns true for the "License" field. that's it. that's the method. she's simple, she's iconic. ⭐
