💖 PPIx::Regexp::Token::Condition 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for PPIx::Regexp::Token::Condition — it's part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation situation, and it's literally the whole vibe of representing the condition of a switch. let's get into it 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

PPIx::Regexp::Token::Condition — represent the condition of a switch. that's it, that's the whole job description, and it slays at it 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so here's the whole flex in code form:

use PPIx::Regexp::Dumper;
PPIx::Regexp::Dumper->new( 'qr{(?(1)foo|bar)}smx' )
    ->print();

look at that. iconic. no notes. 💖

🧚 INHERITANCE 🧚

PPIx::Regexp::Token::Condition is a PPIx::Regexp::Token::Reference. so it's giving... nepo baby, but in a cute way, because it inherits all the good stuff. 💜

and PPIx::Regexp::Token::Condition has no descendants. it's the end of the line, the final girl, nobody comes after it. periodt. 👑

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so here's the tea 🍓: this class represents the condition portion of a switch or conditional expression — but only provided that condition is reasonably represented as a token.

that "provided that" is doing a lot of heavy lifting, so don't come for me. if it's reasonably token-able, it's this class's moment. if not... well, not this class's problem. 💀

✨ METHODS ✨

This class provides no public methods beyond those provided by its superclass.

yeah, that's right — zero extra methods, no notes, no crumbs, no drama. it's a minimalist queen. everything you get, you get from PPIx::Regexp::Token::Reference. 🎀
