πŸ’– Validation::Class::Directive::Help β€” the manual, but make it make sense πŸŽ€

okay so bestie, welcome to the docs for Validation::Class::Directive::Help πŸ’… this is a User Contributed Perl Documentation page, so grab a lil strawberry drink πŸ“ and let's get into it.


✨ NAME ✨

Validation::Class::Directive::Help β€” the Help Directive for Validation Class Field Definitions πŸ¦‹


🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 7.900059 β€” yes she's got a version number and yes she's serving ✨


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

here's the vibe, bestie, copy-paste it exactly okay:

    use Validation::Class::Simple;

    my $rules = Validation::Class::Simple->new(
        fields => {
            username => {
                help => q/A username was automatically generated for you
                at the time you registered your account. Check your email
                client for additional instructions./
            }
        }
    );

like… look at her. use the module, new up some $rules, pass a fields hash, and inside username you slap a help key holding your lil q/.../ blurb. that's it, that's the whole move 🫢


πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

okay so Validation::Class::Directive::Help is a core validation class field directive β€” she's core, she's canon, she's not some random add-on β€” and what she does is hold the help-text statement(s) that get associated with specific fields.

and like, why do we care?? because that help text is useful when rendering form fields or when you're developing RESTful API resources. it's giving "hey user, here's a lil context so you're not confused" energy. main character directive, honestly πŸ’–
