💖 Valida...::City(3pm) 💖

okay so bestie, this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, and it's giving very specific energy. sit down, grab a 🍓, let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

Validation::Class::Directive::City — the City Directive for Validation Class Field Definitions. yes, that's the whole name, it's a mouthful, we love her anyway. 👑

---

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 7.900059

(she's got numbers, and she's proud of them 💅)

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

okay so here's literally how you use it, copy-paste core:

use Validation::Class::Simple;

my $rules = Validation::Class::Simple->new(
    fields => {
        address_city  => {
            city => 1
        }
    }
);

# set parameters to be validated
$rules->params->add($parameters);

# validate
unless ($rules->validate) {
    # handle the failures
}

so you set up your $rules with a fields hash, you give address_city a city => 1 and boom, the vibe check is armed. ✨ then you shove your $parameters into $rules->params->add($parameters) — that's the "here's the stuff, pls judge it" step. and then $rules->validate does the actual work. if it comes back false, you're in the unless block handling the failures, which is the "cry a little and deal with it" step 😭🫶

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so Validation::Class::Directive::Between is a core validation class field directive (yes, the doc says Between right there in a page about City — we don't question the ancestors, we just respect them 🙈) and what she does is give you the ability to perform city/area validations for cities in the USA. 🇺🇸

and the best part? Cities will be validated without regard for case. so portland, Portland, PORTLAND — all the same to her. case-insensitive queen behavior, no cap. 💅✨
