Test::...::Line(3pm)

💖 Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Line 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Line — the little model class that represents one single line inside a feature file. yes, just one line. she's small but she knows things 💅

---

✨ VERSION ✨

this is version 0.87, periodt.

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Model to represent a line in a feature file. that's the whole vibe. one line, one object, no cap.

---

🎀 ATTRIBUTES 🎀

these are the lil properties every Line object is carrying around with her 🫶

• number — the line number this line represents. like, which line in the file she is. iconic.
• document — the Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Document object this line belongs to. she's not alone, she's got a whole document supporting her 💜
• raw_content — the content of the line, unmodified. exactly as it appeared, no edits, no glow-up, nothing. fr fr.

---

🦋 METHODS 🦋

the things you can actually do with a Line. let's go 🧚

• indent — returns the number of preceding spaces before content on a line. it's giving "how far in is she scooted" ✨
• content — returns the line's content, with the indentation stripped. so like, the content but with her indentation taken off 🎀
• content_remove_indentation — accepts an int of number of spaces, and returns the content with exactly that many preceding spaces removed. exactly that many. not one more, not one less 💀
• debug_summary — returns a string with the filename and line number. great for when you're debugging and need receipts 🔥
• filename — returns either the filename, or the string "[String]" if the document was loaded from a string. so if there's no real file, she tells you "[String]", no cap.
• is_blank
• is_comment — Return true if the line is either blank, or is a comment.

lowkey important: is_blank and is_comment share that description — they return true if the line is either blank, or is a comment. so a blank line gets a ✅ from is_blank, and a comment gets a ✅ from is_comment. iykyk 😌
