VM::EC...ityZone(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is VM::EC2::AvailabilityZone — it's a whole object that describes an Amazon availability zone 💖 like, it's the little guy that holds all the deets about one of those AWS zones. that's the whole job. iconic behavior honestly 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the vibe, copy-paste ready, no cap:

use VM::EC2;

$ec2     = VM::EC2->new(...);
@zones   = $ec2->describe_availability_zones(-filter=>{state=>'available'});

$zone    = $zones[0];
$name    = $zone->zoneName;
@messages= $zone->messages;

like... you make your $ec2, you pull the zones, you grab one, and then you're literally just reading zoneName and messages off it. slay 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so. this object is the representation of an Amazon EC2 availability zone, periodt. and where does it come from? not you constructing it, bestie — it gets returned by VM::EC2->describe_availability_zones(). that's the way that works. you don't build it, it comes to you 🫶

---

💜 METHODS 💜

these object methods are the supported ones — the whole roster, no notes:

• zoneName — the name of the zone, e.g. "eu-west-1a" ✨
• zoneState — the state of the availability zone, e.g. "available" ✅
• regionName — the name of the region 🌍
• region — a VM::EC2::Region object that corresponds to regionName 👑
• messages — a list of messages about the zone 📬

not me listing every single one because skipping options is a crime in this house 💀

---

🌈 STRING OVERLOADING 🌈

the moment you use this object in a string context, it will interpolate the zoneName. that's it, that's the trick — it just knows what to say when you print it 🎀✨
