Perl::...verride(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so this is the Perl::...verride(3pm) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and the policy is Perl::Critic::Policy::TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitProlongedStrictureOverride β€” aka Don't turn off strict for large blocks of code. periodt πŸ’…

🫢 AFFILIATION 🫢

This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution. no cap, it's core-core.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Everyone agrees that use strict is the first step to writing maintainable code in Perl. But sometimes strict is a little too strict 😭 In those cases, you can turn it off briefly with a no strict directive.

This policy checks that no strict is only in effect for a small number of statements. That's the vibe check, bestie ✨

πŸŽ€ CONFIGURATION πŸŽ€

The default number of statements allowed per no strict is three. To override this number, put the following in your .perlcriticrc:

[TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitProlongedStrictureOverride]
statements = 5
