String::Flogger(3)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay bestie, welcome to String::Flogger(3) — a User Contributed Perl Documentation page. it's literally String::Flogger - string munging for loggers ✨

💖 VERSION 💖

version 1.101246 — that's the exact version, no cap. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

okay so here's the group-chat demo. first the code:

use String::Flogger qw(flog);

my @inputs = (
  'simple!',

  [ 'slightly %s complex', 'more' ],

  [ 'and inline some data: %s', { look => 'data!' } ],

  [ 'and we can defer evaluation of %s if we want', sub { 'stuff' } ],

  sub { 'while avoiding sprintfiness, if needed' },
);

say flog($_) for @inputs;

The above will output:

simple!

slightly more complex

and inline some data: {{{ "look": "data!" }}}

and we can defer evaluation of stuff if we want

while avoiding sprintfiness, if needed

🧚 PERL VERSION 🧚

This module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates from the Perl 5 Porters. This means it should work on any version of perl released in the last two to three years. (That is, if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on both v5.40 and v5.38.) 💖

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. 🫶

👑 METHODS 👑

✨ flog ✨

This method is described in the synopsis. That's it — no extra lore, bestie. 💅

🎀 format_string 🎀

$flogger->format_string($fmt, \@input);

This method is used to take the formatted arguments for a format string (when flog is passed an arrayref) and turn it into a string. By default, it just uses "sprintf" in perlfunc. 💅
