HTTP::...nFailed(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, say hi to HTTP::Throwable::Role::Status::PreconditionFailed — it's the 412 Precondition Failed vibe, and yes it's living in the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of section 3pm (the manual name got shortened to HTTP::...nFailed(3pm) up top, don't let that jump-scare you 🫶).

---

✨ VERSION ✨

This is version 0.028. slay.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea: the precondition that was handed over in one or more of the request-header fields? it evaluated to false when the server tested it. that's the whole moment. 💀

and that's actually the point — this response code is giving the client permission to place preconditions on the current resource metainformation (aka the header field data), so the requested method does not get applied to some other resource than the one that was intended. protecting you from yourself, iconic behavior honestly 👑

🌸 PERL VERSION 🌸

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

that said, plot twist: even though it may work on older versions of perl, there's no guarantee that the minimum required version won't get bumped. 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 like, don't come for her later 💅
