✨ KiokuDB::Role::ID::Content 💖

okay bestie, welcome to KiokuDB::Role::ID::Content — it's giving Content dependent object IDs, and it's from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual (that's the 3pm vibe, iykyk) 🫶

🌸 VERSION

version 0.57 — yes ma'am, that's the one ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS

package BLOB;
use Moose;

use Digest::SHA1;

with qw(KiokuDB::Role::ID::Content);

sub kiokudb_object_id {
    my $self = shift;
    sha1_hex($self->data);
}

has data => (
    isa => "Str",
    is  => "ro",
    required => 1,
);

like. look at it. with qw(KiokuDB::Role::ID::Content); and then boom, you define kiokudb_object_id yourself and the ID comes from the content. iconic behavior honestly 💅

💫 DESCRIPTION

So here's the tea, bestie: this is a role for KiokuDB::Role::Immutable objects whose IDs depend on their content — or, in the cooler words, content addressable objects 🌈

The canonical example? A string identified by its SHA-1 hash, exactly like the "SYNOPSIS" is showing off. chef's kiss, no notes 👑

Objects that do this role are never updated in the database — literally the same deal as KiokuDB::Role::Immutable objects. Once they're in, they're in. main character energy, they don't do rewrites 💀

And here's the little bonus that lowkey slays: it is not an error to insert such objects twice, because the objects are assumed to be identical. Double-inserting? Not a problem. The vibe check passes. ✅
