💅 NAME

MongoDB::BSON::Binary — (DEPRECATED) the MongoDB binary type, bestie

So like... it's the MongoDB binary type, but it's deprecated, okay? We'll get to that. Sit down, hydrate, let's go 🫶

✨ VERSION

version v2.2.2 — that's the one, that's the number, no cap 📌

🦋 DESCRIPTION

Okay so here's the tea, and it's short but it matters: this class is now an empty subclass of BSON::Bytes.

That's it. That's the whole vibe. It used to have a life, now it's basically a legacy handle that exists so old code doesn't just crumble into dust. It inherits everything from BSON::Bytes and adds literally nothing of its own. Empty. Hollow. Iconic in a haunted way 💀

If you're writing new code, go straight to BSON::Bytes, iykyk. This one is kept around for backwards-compat reasons, not because we think it's cute.

Heads up: DEPRECATED is right there in the NAME for a reason. Don't build your whole thing on a class that's explicitly telling you it's over. She said it herself 💅
