Templat...:Scalar(3)

🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay bestie, welcome to the Templat...:Scalar(3) page — it's a User Contributed Perl Documentation moment, and the main character is Template::Plugin::Scalar: it's literally here to call object methods in scalar context. No cap. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

[% USE scalar %]

# TT2 calls object methods in array context by default
[% object.method %]

# force it to use scalar context
[% object.scalar.method %]

# also works with subroutine references
[% scalar.my_sub_ref %]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So here's the vibe: The Template Toolkit calls user-defined subroutines and object methods using Perl's array context by default. This plugin module provides a way for you to call subroutines and methods in scalar context. That's it, that's the whole serve. 🫶
