✨ Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Serializer ✨

okay bestie, so this one's a 3pm page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of the universe πŸ’– it's a role, and you know what roles are β€” the vibes-only blueprint that other modules gotta live up to. No cap.


🌸 NAME 🌸

Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Serializer β€” it's literally An interface for Serializer modules. that's the whole job description, and it ate. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ VERSION πŸŽ€

version 8.12 β€” that's the one, that's the era we're in. ⭐


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so real talk: there is no code in this module. none. zero. empty. it's giving manifesto, not implementation. 😭

What it actually does is define an interface for Serializer implementations β€” like, a list of methods that any Serializer that wants to sit at this table has to bring. and it requires the following methods, no skipping:

  • encode()
  • encode_pretty()
  • encode_bulk()
  • decode()
  • mime_type()

that's the whole squad, all five, must be present. if you're writing a Serializer and you're missing even one of these? it's not gonna work out, bestie. 🫢

want to see what a real one looks like when it's actually implemented? go peek at Search::Elasticsearch::Serializer::JSON for more. that's the blueprint in action. πŸ”₯
