GraphQ...e::Enum(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

GraphQL::Type::Enum — it's the GraphQL enum type, bestie. That's it, that's the whole vibe. ✨

(Also if you peeped the page header, it says GraphQ...e::Enum(3pm) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation — yeah, that's just our girl GraphQL::Type::Enum with a lil nickname. She's the same queen. 👑)

---

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

Okay so here's how you actually summon her:

use GraphQL::Type::Enum;
my %text2value;
my $type = GraphQL::Type::Enum->new(
  name => 'Enum',
  values => { value1 => {}, value2 => { value => 'yo' } },
);

Look at that. %text2value is just chillin' there, value1 gets no config at all (she's low maintenance 💅), and value2 is out here with value => 'yo'. Iconic behavior fr fr.

🦋 ATTRIBUTES 🦋

She's got name and description handed down from GraphQL::Role::Named. Family traits, yk? 🫶

✨ values ✨

This one's a hash-ref that maps value labels 👉 to a hash-ref description. And the description keys? Every single one is optional. No pressure, no stress, no cap.

• value — the actual Perl value of that item. If you don't specify it, it just defaults to the string name of the value. And ngl, integers are often useful here. 🍓
• deprecation_reason — the reason, if this thing is deprecated. And heads up: if you supply it, the hash for that value ALSO gets an is_deprecated key with a true value. Two for one, slay. 💀
• description — the description. Yeah. That's the whole thing. It describes. 😭

🎀 METHODS 🎀

⭐ is_valid ⭐

Returns true if the Perl entity you handed her is a valid value for this type. She relies on unique stringification of the value to do it — so if your stringification is out here being messy and not unique, that's on you bestie, not her. 🙈

🔥 BUILD 🔥

Internal method. Don't touch, don't look, don't perceive her. She's doing her little behind-the-scenes thing. Main character energy only when she wants to be seen. ✨

Real talk though: this is all the page gives us, so I'm not about to invent extra lore. What's here is here, periodt. 💜

And that's the whole page, bestie! Signing off with the deets from the footer: this was perl v5.34.0, dated 2022-03-27, and the page itself is GraphQ...e::Enum(3pm) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation. Now go build something cute with your enums. Byeee! 🧚🌸
