💅 QWPrimitives(3) — or, your fave little Perl module, from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section

okay so bestie, listen. this is the manual page for Net::DNS::SEC::Tools::QWPrimitives, and it's genuinely such a slay little helper — it's the QWizard primitives for DNSSEC-Tools. let's get into it 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

Net::DNS::SEC::Tools::QWPrimitives — QWizard primitives for DNSSEC-Tools. that's it, that's the whole vibe. 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

like, here's how you actually use it, no cap:

         use Net::DNS::SEC::Tools::QWPrimitives;
         use Getopt::Long::GUI;

         our @guiargs;

         DTGetOptions(  ...,
                        ['GUI:nootherargs',1],
                        ['GUI:otherprimaries',dnssec_tools_get_qwprimitives()],
                        ['GUI:submodules','getzonefiles','getzonenames'],
                     );

that's the whole thing. gorgeous. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so first things first: QWizard is a dynamic GUI-construction kit. like, it literally builds a GUI on the fly, displays a series of questions, then retrieves the answers and acts on them. main character energy fr fr. 👑

and this module? this module is the plug that gives DNSSEC-Tools software access to QWizard. it's giving backstage pass. 🫶

here's the part you actually need to remember, bestie — dnssec_tools_get_qwprimitives() returns a set of primary screens. those screens are for requesting a set of zone files, followed by a set of domain names for those zone files. then all of that gets pushed into the @guiargs, and you should treat @guiargs as the final ARGV array to process. periodt. 💅

ngl, the "treat it as the final ARGV array to process" part is the whole assignment. don't overthink it, just let it do its thing. 🙈
