Geo::G...:LookAt(3pm)

💖 Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable::LookAt 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this is the LookAt package from Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable and it's genuinely so cute. it's a Perl module (you can tell from the 3pm in the manpage name), and it does exactly one iconic thing: it tells your Google Earth folders and placemarks where to look. that's it. that's the whole personality. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable::LookAt — the Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable LookAt package. she's a whole package. she's got range (literally, there's a range param, we'll get there). 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

so here's how you'd actually spin one up, fr fr:

my $lookat=$document->LookAt(
                             latitude  => 38.1741527,
                             longitude => -96.7839388,
                             range     => 3525808,
                             heading   => 0,
                             tilt      => 0,
                            );

Assign LookAt during construction 🧚 — you can just hand it over while you're building the thing:

my $folder=$document->Folder(name=>"MyLook", lookat=>$lookat);
my $point=$folder->Point(lat=>$lat, lon=>$lon, lookat=>$lookat);

Assign LookAt after construction 🦋 — or you can show up late, that's fine too:

$document->lookat($lookat);
$folder->lookat($lookat);
$point->lookat($lookat);

Do it all at one time ⭐ — the multitasking queen behaviour, no cap:

my $point=$folder->Point(lat    => $lat,
                         lon    => $lon,
                         lookat => $document->LookAt(%data));

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

it "Provides a way to configure a LookAt for all Folders and Placemarks." that's the vibe. one LookAt, everybody gets to look at it. it's giving shared vision, honestly. 👑

---

🌈 USAGE 🌈

🎀 CONSTRUCTOR 🎀

every single Folder object has a LookAt constructor. yes, all of them. "All Folder objects have a LookAt constructor."

my $object=$document->LookAt(%data);
my $object=$folder->LookAt(%data);

so whether you're coming from the $document or the $folder, you've got options. we love a flexible icon. ✨

💜 new

(this is the constructor slot — it's here, it's hanging out, it's how you make the object.) 🫶

💜 type

returns the object type. simple, clean, no drama.

my $type=$lookat->type;

💜 latitude

💜 longitude

💜 range

💜 tilt

💜 heading

💜 node

okay so this one's the good one — node "Returns the XML::LibXML::LazyBuilder element for the LookAt object." that's the actual XML meat of it. lowkey the main character of the accessors. 💀

ngl, latitude, longitude, range, tilt and heading are listed here as plain accessor names with no description attached — that's how they came to me and I'm not about to invent lore for them. they're just... there. iconic behaviour honestly. 🙈
