🌸 NAME 🌸

VM::EC2::Instance::Status::Details — an object describing the details of an instance status check 💅

no cap, here's how you actually use it:

   print $i->instance_id,
          ': instance check=',$i->instance_status,
          ', system check=',$i->system_status,"\n";
  if ($i->instance_status ne 'ok') {
     my @details = $i->instance_status->details;
     for my $d (@details) {
           print $d->name,"\n";

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically, this object is the receipts 🧾 — it represents the extra deets about a failed system or instance status check. it's giving "here's exactly what's wrong and when it started going wrong."

---

👑 METHODS 👑

these methods are supported, and they ate:

• name() — the type of instance status detail, like "reachability". 💀 (yes, reachability, iconic)
• status() — the status of the check: "passed", "failed", or "insufficient-data". three moods, pick one.
• impaired_since() — the time when a status check failed, as a DateTime string. ⏰ lowkey the most important one ngl.

also! in a string context, this object interpolates as the name(). so if you just shove it in a string, it's gonna show up as its name. cute, right? 🎀
