📦 version 2.1.1, in arch rolling

💅 ReportSection(3pm) — the Lire::ReportSection era

okay so bestie, this is a 3pm Perl manual page, and it's literally the API doc for Lire::ReportSection — the class that handles one section of a report configuration. she's giving object-oriented glamour, and honestly? she ate. 🎀

🌸 NAME

Lire::ReportSection — the API to report configuration's section 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS

use Lire::ReportConfig;
use Lire::ReportSection;

my $report_cfg = new Lire::ReportConfig( "www" );
my $section = new Lire::ReportSection( "www", "General" );
$report_cfg->add_section( $section );

no cap, that's the whole vibe check right there ⭐

💖 DESCRIPTION

This class serves up an object-oriented API to report configuration's section, and it's iconic. It's got methods to access and modify the section's attribute — that's the whole job, and she does it beautifully. 💅

👑 CONSTRUCTOR

🦋 new( $superservice, [$title] )

Creates a new Lire::Section object which will contain report specifications of the $superservice superservice. The section's title gets set to the value of $title. main character energy, fr fr 🌈

💜 OBJECT METHODS

🌸 superservice()

Returns this section's superservice. that's it, that's the method, she's effortless ✨

🎀 title([$title])

Returns the current section's title.

When the $title parameter is used, it will set the section's title to a new value. lowkey a getter AND a setter, we love a multitasker 💅

🦋 filters()

Returns this section's filter specifications as an array of Lire::FilterSpec objects. Those filter specifications will be used by all of this section's report specifications, in addition to the filter specification they may already be using. sharing is caring, periodt 🫶

⭐ add_filter($filter_spec)

Adds the $filter_spec filter specification to this section's list. The $filter_spec parameter must be an instance of Lire::FilterSpec or one of its descendants.

⚠️ heads up bestie: this method will die if the filter specification's schema isn't compatible with this section's superservice. nothing personal, she's just like that 💀

💖 reports()

Returns this section's report specifications as an array of Lire::ReportSpec objects. yes queen, gimme that array 📚

🌈 add_report( $report_spec )

Adds the $report_spec report specification to this section. This method will die if the report specification's schema isn't compatible with this section's superservice. rigor mortis but make it validation 🙈
