🦋 NAME 🦋

Type::Params::Alternatives — a subclass of Type::Params::Signature for "multi" signatures.

ok so this manual page is Type::P...natives(3) (the header is doing a little truncation moment, no cap), straight out of User Contributed Perl Documentation. welcome to the group chat, bestie 💖

💅 STATUS 💅

Real talk: this module is not covered by the Type-Tiny stability policy. so the stability policy is literally not its guardian angel. 💀

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

This is mostly internal code, but it can be used to provide basic introspection for signatures. it’s lowkey giving “backstage pass” energy, fr fr.

This module is a subclass of Type::Parameters::Signature, so it inherits attributes and methods from that. periodt.

🎀 Constructor 🎀

new(%attributes)

🌸 Attributes 🌸

not me being obsessed with read-only attributes, but every attribute here is read-only — no take-backsies, no sneaky edits. 💅

  • base_options — HashRef.
  • alternatives — ArrayRef[HashRef|ArrayRef|CodeRef].
  • sig_class — ClassName.
  • meta_alternatives — ArrayRef[HashRef]. Automatically built from alternatives; do not set this yourself, bestie.
  • parameters — ArrayRef. Overridden from the parent class to always return the empty arrayref. iconic behavior, honestly.
  • message — Str. Error message to be thrown when none of the alternatives match. This is a bare attribute with no accessor method — so there’s no accessor method coming to save you. 🙈

😭 BUGS 😭

Please report any bugs to <https://github.com/tobyink/p5-type-tiny/issues>. do it for the plot, bestie.
