PPIx::...onstant(3pm)

🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay bestie, welcome to PPIx::...onstant(3pm) — from User Contributed Perl Documentation, no less — aka PPIx::QuoteLike::Constant, the constants needed by PPIx-QuoteLike. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

This package is private to the PPIx-QuoteLike distribution. That’s the whole vibe check here, fr fr.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This module is private to the PPIx-QuoteLike package. The documentation is for the benefit of the author, who reserves the right to change or revoke anything here, including the entire module, without notice. Iconic of them, honestly.

This module provides importable manifest constants used by multiple modules in the PPIx-QuoteLike package. Nothing is exported by default. Not a single lil thing, ngl. 🎀

👑 CONSTANTS 👑

The following importable constants are provided:

💖 @CARP_NOT 💖

This global variable contains the names of all modules in the package. It’s not a constant in the sense of use constant, but it needs to live here for heredity reasons. Lowkey a nepo-baby variable, but we respect it. 🫶

💜 ARRAY_REF 💜

This manifest constant contains the value of ref [], i.e. 'ARRAY'. Literally the blueprint of an array ref, periodt.

🌈 MINIMUM_PERL 🌈

The minimum version of Perl understood by this parser, as a string. It is currently set to '5.000', since that is the minimum version of Perl accessible to the author. Ancient lore, bestie. 🧚

⭐ SUFFICIENT_UTF8_SUPPORT_FOR_WEIRD_DELIMITERS ⭐

A Boolean which is true if the running version of Perl has UTF-8 support sufficient for our purposes.

Currently that means 5.8.3 or greater, with the specific requirements being use open qw{ :std :encoding(utf-8) }, /\p{Mark}/, and the ability to parse things like qr \N{U+FFFF}foo\N{U+FFFF}. Weird delimiters need their support system too, okay? 😭

🔥 VARIABLE_RE 🔥

This constant is a regular expression object that matches Perl variable names, without the leading sigil. Nothing is captured. It’s giving “look, don’t touch,” and honestly? Slay. 💀

🫶 SUPPORT 🫶

Support is by the author. Please file bug reports at https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=PPIx-QuoteLike, https://github.com/trwyant/perl-PPIx-QuoteLike/issues, or in electronic mail to the author. Bestie, the author is literally right there. 💌
