💖 VM::EC2::Snapshot::CreateVolumePermission(3pm) 💖

okay bestie, pull up a chair 🫶 this is VM::EC2::Snapshot::CreateVolumePermission — a little Perl module that's giving "who's allowed to do the thing" energy. It's part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it is so niche and so specific and honestly? iconic for that. ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

VM::EC2::Snapshot::CreateVolumePermission — literally just an object that describes AMI create volume permissions. That's it. That's the whole job. 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

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

use VM::EC2;

$ec2       = VM::EC2->new(...);
$snapshot  = $ec2->describe_snapshots('snap-12345');
@users     = $image->createVolumePermissions;
for (@users) {
  $group = $_->group;
  $user  = $_->userId;
}

see how we're looping through and grabbing group and userId off each one? yeah. that's the move. 🎀

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like, this object represents an Amazon volume snapshot create volume permission. You don't make these yourself, bestie — they're handed to you. It's returned by VM::EC2::Snapshot createVolumePermissions(). 🫶

---

👑 METHODS 👑

These object methods are supported, and there are exactly two of them, and we love that for them:

• group — the name of a group with launch permissions. Heads up: the only valid value here is "all". Like, that's it. That's the whole menu. 😭
• userId — the name of a user with launch permissions. 🧚

---

🌈 STRING OVERLOADING 🌈

okay so when you use this object in a string context, it will interpolate the userId. 🪄

BUT — and this is the plot twist — if the userId is blank, then it interpolates as the group instead. so it always gives you something. main character energy, honestly. 💜
