💖 Geometry::Primitive — bestie edition 💖

okay so this is Geometry::Primitive(3pm), from the User Contributed Perl Documentation set. it's the page about primitives. yes, geometry primitives. don't run away yet, i promise it's cute. 🌸

✨ NAME ✨

Geometry::Primitive — Primitive Geometry Entities. that's it. that's the whole name. points and lines and shapes, the little building blocks. 💅

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

so Geometry::Primitive is a device-agnostic and library-agnostic system for representing geometric entities — like points, lines and shapes. it gives you simple objects plus a whole bunch of convenience methods you'd expect from a simple geometry library. simple objects, big energy. ✨

use Geometry::Primitive::Point;

my $foo = Geometry::Primitive::Point->new(x => 1, y => 3);
...

like. look at that. x => 1, y => 3. iconic. 🎀

💀 DISCLAIMER 💀

okay bestie, real talk, direct from the author's own heart:

I'm not a math guy. I hate math.

😭 he said it fr fr. he'll likely learn a lot in the process of making this library. and if you are a math person, you will probably look at this and find many things missing or wrong. patches are encouraged. 🫶 he will likely find that he's done something completely wrong, having taken geometry over 10 years ago. C'est la vie. 💅

🦋 ENTITIES 🦋

the whole roster, no skips:

  • Arc
  • Bezier
  • Circle
  • Ellipse
  • Line
  • Point
  • Polygon
  • Rectangle

the way that's literally the entire cast of a geometry class 👑✨

🎀 SERIALIZATON 🎀

(yes, that's how the heading is spelled, we don't fix it, we respect it 💖)

all of the entities in this library support serialization via MooseX::Storage. this is primarily to support serialization in consumers of this library, but it may be useful for other purposes too. all classes are set to JSON format and File IO. no cap. 🔥
