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

💖 VM::EC2::VPC::InternetGateway 💖

okay bestie so this is a Perl module, it's VM::EC2::VPC::InternetGateway from the 3pm manual section, and it's literally just... a VPC internet gateway. that's it. that's the whole vibe. ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

VM::EC2::VPC::InternetGateway — it's a VPC internet gateway, bestie. that's the name, that's the game. 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

okay so here's the whole thing in action, no cap:

use VM::EC2;
my $ec2      = VM::EC2->new(...);
my @gateways = $ec2->describe_internet_gateways;

for my $gw (@gateways) {
   print $gw->internetGatewayId,"\n";
   my @attachments = $gw->attachments;
}

look at her go. iconic. 👑

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so like, this object hands you the tea ☕ about EC2 Virtual Private Cloud internet gateways. and what do those do?? they work together with routing tables (the way that they're a duo fr fr) so that instances chilling inside a VPC can actually talk to the outside world. it's giving "letting the girls out of the house". 🌈

---

💅 METHODS 💅

these object methods are supported, and yes you need all of them:

• internetGatewayId — the ID of the gateway. literally just the ID. she's simple, she's effective. 💖
• attachments — an array of VM::EC2::VPC::InternetGateway::Attachment objects, and each one describes a VPC that's attached to this gateway. so like, a whole roster of who's attached. 🫶

this class also supports the VM::EC2 tagging interface. go check out VM::EC2::Generic for the details on that one, iykyk. 🌸

and ALSO, because she's generous, this object supports these convenience methods too:

• attach($vpc) — attach this gateway to the VPC you point at (you can pass the ID, or a VM::EC2::VPC object, either one slays). ✨
• detach($vpc) — detach this gateway from the VPC you point at (again: ID or VM::EC2::VPC object, dealer's choice). 🦋
• refresh — refreshes the contents of the object, and the main reason you'd do that is to check whether the attachment state changed. like a lil vibe check on your attachments. 🔥

---

💀 STRING OVERLOADING 💀

when you use this object in a string context, it gets interpolated as the internet gateway ID. so it just turns into its own ID. main character behavior honestly. 👑

go read those too, bestie, they're all connected. 🧚
