Net::CUPS::IPP(3pm)

✨ Net::CUPS::IPP ✨

okay bestie, welcome to Net::CUPS::IPP, the Internet Printing Protocol Object 💖 this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of your friendly neighborhood Net::CUPS::IPP(3pm) manpage, and we're gonna get you printing like it's nothing 🖨️✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use Net::CUPS::IPP;

my $ipp = Net::CUPS::IPP->new( IPP_GET_JOB_ATTRIBUTE );

my $size = $ipp->getSize();

$ipp->addString( $group, $type, $name, $charset, $value );

like… look at her. she's so clean. 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Net::CUPS is an object oriented interface to the Common Unix Printing System. no cap, that's the whole vibe.

And Net::CUPS::IPP? It's an abstraction of the IPP implementation in CUPS. it's giving "I don't want to touch the C layer directly, so here's a cute Perl wrapper" 😌✨

👑 METHODS 👑

🎀 addString

$ipp->addString( $group, $type, $name, $charset, $value );

This one is the implementation of the CUPS C function ippAddString. fr fr, please refer the IPP documentation for its usage — I'm not out here making up extra facts, bestie, the IPP docs are the main character here 📚💅

🎀 getAttributes

my @attributes = $ipp->getAttributes();

This method will return an array of all the attributes in an IPP request. every single one. she's thorough like that 🫶

🎀 getAttributeValue

my $value = $ipp->getAttributeValue( $name );

Method to return the associated value with method. yeah — you hand over a $name, you get the value back. iykyk 🍓

🎀 getSize

my $size = $ipp->getSize();

Utility to function to acquire the size of the IPP request. This is mainly useful for debugging 🔥 so when things go feral, this is your girl.
