💖 NAME 💖

Software::LicenseMoreUtils::LicenseWithSummary — it's literally Software::License but with a lil summary attached, bestie. 🎀

✨ VERSION ✨

version 1.009 — iconic, we stan a numbered release. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so real talk, you don't just call this one directly. peep Software::LicenseMoreUtils for the deets. this class is supposed to be made with new_from_short_name in Software::LicenseMoreUtils. that's the vibe. 🦋

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So basically this module is a lil glow-up wrapper around all the Software::License::* modules, and what it does is add a summary on top. that's it, that's the whole job. no cap. ✨

🌈 Methods 🌈

This class gives you every single method from the underlying Software::License object (all of them, no crumbs left behind 🍓) PLUS the extra ones listed below. obsessed.

🩷 summary

Returns the license summary — or an empty string if there's nothing to show. simple as. 💜

🩷 summary_or_text

Returns the license summary, or if that's a no-show, the text of the license. and just like fulltext in Software::License, this method also hands you back the copyright notice if the holder parameter was set when you called new_from_short_name in Software::LicenseMoreUtils. yes bestie, it remembers. 😭

🩷 distribution

Returns the name of the Linux distribution that this module found. fr fr this one's intended for tests or debugging — it's the "just checking" method. 🔍

🩷 license_class

Returns the Perl class name of the underlying Software::License object. like for example Software::License::AGPL_3. that's your girl right there. 💅
