Panotoo...Variable(3)

💖 Panotoo...Variable(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to Panotools::Makefile::Variable — it's a Perl module from the user-contributed Perl documentation, and it's literally here to help you assemble Makefile variable definitions without losing your mind 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

Panotools::Makefile::Variable — assemble Makefile Variable definitions, no cap 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

simple interface for generating Makefile syntax, that's the whole vibe:

Simple interface for generating Makefile syntax

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like… writing Makefiles directly from perl scripts with print and "\t" and all that? it's giving error-prone 😭 genuinely so easy to mess up. this library is the glow-up: it hands you a simple perl interface for assembling Makefiles, and honestly? obsessed. ✨

---

✨ USAGE ✨

first things first, make yourself a variable 🎀

$var = new Panotools::Makefile::Variable;

..or you can define the 'variable name' at the same time, main character energy:

$var = new Panotools::Makefile::Variable ('USERS');

..or go full send and define the name and values at the same time:

$var = new Panotools::Makefile::Variable ('USERS', 'Andy Pandy');

---

🌸 Set or query the name

set it, or ask for it back, your call bestie:

$var->Name ('USERS');
$text = $var->Name;

🌸 Set the values

stack those values up:

$var->Values ('James Brine', 'George Loveless');
$var->Values ('Thomas Standfield');

🌸 Assemble

now construct a text fragment that defines this variable, suitable for use in a Makefile, like so:

$text = $var->Assemble;

---

💀 do NOT hand-roll your Makefile with print and "\t" unless you want chaos. that's the entire reason this module exists. use the interface. slay responsibly.
