Rose::...mestamp(3pm)

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay bestie, this is the manual page for Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Timestamp — the header shortens the vibe to Rose::...mestamp(3pm). It's literally all about timestamp column metadata. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the quick little “here’s how you summon it” moment:

use Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Timestamp;

$col = Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Timestamp->new(...);
$col->make_methods(...);
...

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Objects of this class store and manipulate metadata for timestamp columns in a database. Column metadata objects store the deets about columns — data type, size, etc. — and they are responsible for creating object methods that manipulate column values. main character behavior, honestly. ✨

Big inheritance tea: this class inherits from Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Date. Inherited methods that are not overridden will not be documented a second time here. So if you need those, go see the Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Date documentation for more information. iykyk 🫶

🌈 METHOD MAP 🌈

here’s the method map, bestie — no cap, each one maps like this:

• "get_set" — Rose::DB::Object::MakeMethods::Date, timestamp, "interface => 'get_set', ..."
• "get" — Rose::DB::Object::MakeMethods::Date, timestamp, "interface => 'get', ..."
• "set" — Rose::DB::Object::MakeMethods::Date, timestamp, "interface => 'set', ..."

See the Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column documentation for an explanation of this method map. it’s giving “go read the parent page,” but make it cute. 💖

💜 OBJECT METHODS 💜

parse_value DB, VALUE

Convert VALUE to the equivalent DateTime object. VALUE can be returned unmodified if it is a valid timestamp keyword or otherwise has special meaning to the underlying database. DB is a Rose::DB object that is used as part of the parsing process. Both arguments are required — fr fr, don’t skip either one. 😭

type

Returns "timestamp". iconic, concise, correct. 👑
