🦋 MAB2::...er::RAW(3pm) — ok bestie, sit DOWN 🦋

Welcome to the manual page for MAB2::Writer::RAW — it's giving "Perl User Contributed Documentation," it's giving 3pm, and it's literally the moment you've all been waiting for. 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

MAB2::Writer::RAW — a MAB2 RAW format serializer. That's it. That's the whole vibe. 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

So MAB2::Writer::RAW is a MAB2 serializer, periodt. Here's the whole thing, no edits, no cap:

use MAB2::Writer::RAW;

my @mab_records = (

    [
      ['001', ' ', '_', '2415107-5'],
      ['331', ' ', '_', 'Code4Lib journal'],
      ['655', 'e', 'u', 'http://journal.code4lib.org/', 'z', 'kostenfrei'],
      ...
    ],
    {
      record => [
          ['001', ' ', '_', '2415107-5'],
          ['331', ' ', '_', 'Code4Lib journal'],
          ['655', 'e', 'u', 'http://journal.code4lib.org/', 'z', 'kostenfrei'],
          ...
      ]
    }
);

$writer = MAB2::Writer::RAW->new( fh => $fh );

foreach my $record (@mab_records) {
    $writer->write($record);
}

Notice how a record can be a bare arrayref OR a hashref with a record key? Both are valid, both are iconic. 🫶

💜 Arguments 💜

See MAB2::Writer::Handle. That's where the args live, bestie — this page is not the one holding that info. 🙈

---

🔥 METHODS 🔥

⭐ new(file => $file | fh => $fh [, encoding => 'UTF-8'])

The constructor. You hand it either a file or an fh (pick your fighter), and optionally an encoding which defaults to 'UTF-8'. Slay. ✨

⭐ _write_record($record)

The internal record-writing method, taking $record. It's underscore-prefixed, so you know what that means — iykyk. 👑
