HTTP::...equired(3pm)

💖 HTTP::Throwable::Role::Status::LengthRequired — the whole vibe 🎀

okay bestie, so this page lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of your man pages, and it's literally all about one tiny little status role. sit down, hydrate, let's go ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

HTTP::Throwable::Role::Status::LengthRequired — it's giving 411 Length Required 💅

---

⭐ VERSION ⭐

version 0.028 — yes, that's the number, no cap 🫶

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea 🍓: the server is like "girl, no" and refuses to accept the request unless there's a defined Content-Length. that's it, that's the whole drama.

but wait — the client MAY repeat the request 👀 and it's allowed to do that if it adds a valid Content-Length header field containing the length of the message-body in the request message. so basically: bring the length, or don't come back 💀

---

✨ PERL VERSION ✨

this library is built different — it should run on perls released even a long time ago. like, it should work on any version of perl released in the last five years 🌈

but lowkey, hear me out: although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum required version will not be increased 😭 the version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl. so don't come for her with the "make it older" requests, it's not happening 🙈
