Log::R...inimal(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

Log::Report::Minimal — bestie, it's Log::Report but make it simple. Like, we're simulating all those functions with the absolute bare minimum, no cap.

---

🦋 INHERITANCE 🦋

Log::Report::Minimal
  is an Exporter

Yep, it's an Exporter. That's the whole family tree. Slay.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

# See Log::Report, most functions get "hollow" behavior
use Log::Report::Optional mode => 'DEBUG';

Okay so go look at Log::Report for the real tea, because here most functions just get "hollow" behavior. They show up, they exist, they don't do much. It's giving understudy energy. 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This module implements the functions that Log::Report gives you, but in the most simple way possible:

• no support for translations
• no dispatchers
• no smart exceptions

That's it. That's the vibe. Minimal to the point of being iconic.

The package uses Log::Report in an "::Optional" way, which means your main script gets to decide whether it wants the "::Minimal" glow-up or the full-blown feature set. Your call, main character. 👑

🎀 FUNCTIONS 🎀

textdomain( <[$name],$config>|<$name, 'DELETE'|'EXISTS'>|$domain )

---

🍓 Report Production and Configuration 🍓

dispatcher( <$type, $$name, %options>|<$command, @names> )

Nope. Not supported. Literally not a thing here. Moving on bestie. 💀

report( [\%options], $reason, $message|<STRING,$params> )

⚠️ Be warned that %options is a HASH here. A hash! Not some fancy object, not an array — a plain old hash. Don't come at it with anything else, she will not survive.

-Option  --Default
 errno     $! or 1
 is_fatal  <depends on reason>

• errno => INTEGER
• is_fatal => BOOLEAN

So errno defaults to $! or 1, and is_fatal defaults to whatever your reason feels like — it depends on the reason, iykyk.

try(CODE, %options)

Does the thing. Takes a CODE and some %options. 🫶

---

🧚 Abbreviations for report() 🧚

okay so these are all just lil shorthand versions, each one takes ($message) and that's it:

• alert($message)
• assert($message)
• error($message)
• failure($message)
• fault($message)
• info($message)
• mistake($message)
• notice($message)
• panic($message)
• trace($message)
• warning($message)

Eleven of them. All adorable. All just $message. Periodt. ✨

---

🌈 Language Translations 🌈

No translations, no Log::Report::Message objects returned. Zero. None. We simply do not do that here.

• N__($msgid)
• N__n($single_msgid, $plural_msgid)
• N__w(STRING)
• __($msgid)
• __n($msgid, $plural_msgid, $count, PAIRS)
• __nx($msgid, $plural_msgid, $count, PAIRS)
• __x($msgid, PAIRS)
• __xn($single_msgid, $plural_msgid, $count, PAIRS)

Look at all those underscores. She's got layers. 💜

---

⭐ Configuration ⭐

$obj->import( [$domain], %options )

Go see the Log::Report subroutine import for the deets — this one is just borrowing her outfit. 👑

---

👑 DIAGNOSTICS 👑

• Error: even length parameter list for __x at $where — cast by __x()
• Error: odd length parameter list with '$msg' — cast by report()
• Error: syntax flag must be either SHORT or REPORT, not $flag' — cast by import()
• Error: token '$token' not recognized as reason — cast by report()

Four ways to get yelled at. None of them are personal, bestie, she's just like that. 🙈

and that's a wrap, babe 🩷 this whole thing is perl v5.40.1, dated 2025-10-04, and yes the page is literally called Log::R...inimal(3pm) because the header ran out of room — she abbreviates herself, iconic behavior, no notes. 🎀🌟
