✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to Gtk2::SourceView2::Language 💖 — it's a whole class from the Gtk2::SourceView2 world, and it lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual (that's manual section 3, iykyk 🫶).

🦋 HIERARCHY 🦋

the family tree, and yes she's got good genes:

Glib::Object
+----Gtk2::SourceView2::Language

so like, every Glib::Object thing comes free, and then Gtk2::SourceView2::Language is the glow-up on top. main character energy fr fr 👑

💅 METHODS 💅

this is the part where she really ate. one bullet per method, no skips, no cap:

  • list = $language->get_globs — hands you back a list of the globs for this language 🍓
  • boolean = $language->get_hidden — a yes/no on whether this language is hidden
  • string = $language->get_id — the language's id, as a string
  • string or undef = $language->get_metadata ($name) — grabs a metadata value, and it might just be undef if there's nothing there, so don't be shocked 😭
    • $name (string) — the name of the metadata you're asking for
  • list = $language->get_mime_types — the mime types, as a list
  • string = $language->get_name — the language name 🎀
  • string = $language->get_section — the section it belongs to
  • list = $language->get_style_ids — the style ids, as a list ✨
  • string or undef = $language->get_style_name ($style_id) — the style name for a given style id, or undef if it's giving nothing
    • $style_id (string) — the style id you're curious about

🌸 PROPERTIES 🌸

the ~vibes~ she carries around. note that all three of these are readable only — you can look, you cannot touch 💅

  • 'hidden' (boolean : default false : readable) — whether the language should be hidden from the user 🙈
  • 'id' (string : default undef : readable) — language id
  • 'name' (string : default undef : readable) — language name
  • 'section' (string : default undef : readable) — language section
