Pango::FontMap(3)

💅 Pango::FontMap

Okay bestie, so this is the Pango::FontMap page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation — it's basically a little wrapper situation around PangoFontMap, and honestly it's giving "small but mighty" energy. Let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

Pango::FontMap — the wrapper for PangoFontMap. That's it, that's the name, no notes 💅

---

🌸 HIERARCHY 🌸

So here's the family tree, and yes, it's a whole lineage moment:

  Glib::Object
  +----Pango::FontMap

Like, Glib::Object is the parent and Pango::FontMap is the main character child ✨

---

🦋 INTERFACES 🦋

It's also repping this interface, no cap:

  Glib::Object::_Unregistered::GListModel

---

🎀 METHODS 🎀

🍓 list = $fontmap->list_families

You call this and you get back a list of families. Simple, iconic, does what it says on the tin 💖

🧚 font or undef = $fontmap->load_font ($context, $desc)

Loads up a font. Heads up though — it can hand you a font or it can give you undef, so like… vibe check your return value, bestie 😭

The args it takes:

• $context — a Pango::Context 💜
• $desc — a Pango::FontDescription 🌸

⭐ fontset or undef = $fontmap->load_fontset ($context, $desc, $language)

Same deal, but for a whole fontset, and it can also come back as undef so don't @ me if it does 🙈

The args:

• $context — a Pango::Context 💜
• $desc — a Pango::FontDescription 🌸
• $language — a Pango::Language 🦋

🌈 PROPERTIES 🌈

Two properties, both fully spelled out with all their flags, because we do not skip details in this house 👑

• 'item-type' — type is Glib::GType, default is "Glib::Object", and it's readable / private / static-nick / static-blurb ✨
• 'n-items' — type is Glib::UInt, default is 0, and it's also readable / private / static-nick / static-blurb 💫
