πŸ’– Devel::REPL::Plugin::Peek πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for Devel::REPL::Plugin::Peek β€” part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation family, and yes, it's giving "small plugin, big personality" energy. πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

Devel::REPL::Plugin::Peek β€” the Devel::Peek plugin for Devel::REPL. that's it. that's the whole name. short, sweet, slays. πŸ’…


🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 1.003029


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

so you're sitting in your repl and you type this, and the whole vibe shifts:

repl> #peek "foo"
SV = PV(0xb3dba0) at 0xb4abc0
  REFCNT = 1
  FLAGS = (POK,READONLY,pPOK)
  PV = 0x12bcf70 "foo"\0
  CUR = 3
  LEN = 4

like… look at that. that's the internals of "foo" just sitting there, fully exposed. no cap, it's iconic. πŸ‘‘


🫢 DESCRIPTION 🫢

okay so here's the tea β˜• β€” this Devel::REPL::Plugin adds a little command called peek, and what it does is call Dump from Devel::Peek instead of doing the normal printing thing. so instead of just seeing your value like a normal person, you get the full backstage tour of the SV. main character behaviour, honestly. ✨
