Pod::El...:Command(3)

bestie, welcome to the Pod::Elemental::Command(3) manual page 💖 — the header's over there being all Pod::El...:Command(3) and “User Contributed Perl Documentation”, so we're folding those deets in near the top instead of copy-pasting the whole line, mmkay? ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

Pod::Elemental::Command — a =command paragraph. periodt.

🎀 VERSION 🎀

version 0.103006 — yes, that exact number, guard it with your life 🫶

✨ OVERVIEW ✨

okay so this is a role that paragraph classes include when they represent Pod commands. It defines the as_pod_string and as_debug_string methods, and that's literally the whole point.

most code that's looking for commands will check whether this role is included, so bestie, please use it even if you override the provided methods. not optional vibes — the code is checking, iykyk 💅

classes that implement this role also have to provide a command method. usually that method will be implemented by an attribute, but that's not necessary — the requirement is the method, not the attribute route. no cap.

🐚 PERL VERSION 🐚

this library should run on perls released even a long time ago. it should work on any version of perl released in the last five years. 🌈

although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum required version will not be increased. the version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl. so yeah, older-perl bestie, don't count on a forever-lock 🔒
