💖 VM::EC2::REST::monitoring — the manual page, but make it make sense 💖

okay bestie, so this is the VM::EC2::REST::monitoring page, from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and the whole vibe here is monitoring of instances. yep. that's the thing. turning instance monitoring on and off. iconic behavior honestly ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

VM::EC2::REST::monitoring — Monitoring of instances 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use VM::EC2 ':misc';

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. she's minimal, she's clean, she ate 💅

🦋 METHODS 🦋

so these methods are literally here to let you monitor and unmonitor your instances. that's the assignment. no cap 💀

@monitoring_state = $ec2->monitor_instances(@list_of_instanceIds)

@monitoring_state = $ec2->monitor_instances(-instance_id=>\@instanceIds)

this one turns monitoring ON for all the instances you list, and it hands you back a list of VM::EC2::Instance::MonitoringState objects. and like, the way that you can keep those objects around and use them later to activate and inactivate monitoring?? obsessed. they're yours, they're reusable, slay 👑

@monitoring_state = $ec2->unmonitor_instances(@list_of_instanceIds)

@monitoring_state = $ec2->unmonitor_instances(-instance_id=>\@instanceIds)

and this one does the opposite bestie — monitoring OFF for every instance you listed. same deal: you get back a list of VM::EC2::Instance::MonitoringState objects, and you can use those later to activate and inactivate monitoring. yes, same sentence as above, because it's the same truth fr fr 🌈

side note: both methods return the exact same object type, so whichever direction you're going, the receipts are VM::EC2::Instance::MonitoringState 🧚
