Protoco...dKeyData(3)
π Protocol::Database::PostgreSQL::BackendKeyData(3)
ok so this is a Perl manpage, section 3 of the manual (yes, 3 β the library-calls girlies), and it lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of the universe. That's the whole header situation, bestie, we're moving on π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
Protocol::Database::PostgreSQL::BackendKeyData β described, in the official words, as an authentication request message.
that's it. that's the name section. iconic brevity fr fr π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
okay so here's the tea: the DESCRIPTION section is literally empty. like, not one word. complete silence. the void stared back π
ngl, this one is giving "the documentation is the name, go read the source" main character energy. no cap, the package name is the entire personality. π
π AUTHOR π
Tom Molesworth <TEAM@cpan.org> β say thank you to the icon who made this π

so yeah, same license vibes as Perl, periodt β¨
πΈ a little heads up bestie: the empty DESCRIPTION is not me being lazy, it's genuinely empty in the source. don't go inventing behaviours for this module, iykyk π
sign-off time! this page is from perl v5.42.2, dated 2026-02-15, and it says Protoco...dKeyData(3) up top and down bottom because the terminal was clearly trying to keep it cute and abbreviate. slay, go forth, authenticate responsibly π
