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

💖 VM::EC2::DB::Event — the tea on RDS Database Events 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the VM::EC2::DB::Event page 🫶 this one lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of the perl 3pm manual, and it's literally just one lil' object that holds an RDS event. no cap.

---

✨ NAME ✨

VM::EC2::DB::Event — an RDS Database Event. that's it, that's the name, slay 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the vibe, copy-paste core:

use VM::EC2;
$ec2 = VM::EC2->new(...);
my @events = $ec2->describe_events;
print $_,"\n" foreach grep { $_->SourceIdentifier eq 'mydbinstance' } @events;

so you spin up a VM::EC2 object, you call describe_events, and then you grep through the pile for the ones whose SourceIdentifier matches 'mydbinstance' — and print each one with a newline. iconic. 🦋

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

this object is giving event receipt 📬 it represents an event tied to:

• DB instances
• DB security groups
• DB snapshots
• DB parameter groups

…and specifically the events that have happened in the past 14 days. two weeks of lore, that's the window. periodt.

---

💅 STRING OVERLOADING 💅

when you use this thing in string context (like when you print it or stick it in a double-quoted string), it hands you back a string containing:

• the date
• the identifier of the source of the event
• the event message

that's the whole string. no more, no less. it's lowkey the perfect little summary. 💖
