WWW::S...:Simple(3pm)
π WWW::Search::Simple β like, the perl manpage bestie edition π
okay so this is the manpage for WWW::Search::Simple from the perl documentation collection (that's the perl man page section, bestie β we're in 3pm territory, aka "user contributed perl documentation"). it's a whole little class for searching any web site and honestly? iconic. let's go π¦
β¨ NAME β¨
WWW::Search::Simple β a class for searching any web site. like, any of them. no cap. π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
okay so here's literally the entire setup, look at her go:
require WWW::Search;
$search = new WWW::Search('Simple');
that's it, that's the whole vibe. π
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
so <lavender>WWW::Search::Simple</lavender> is a specialization of WWW::Search β think of it as WWW::Search's little sister who only does one thing and does it slayfully β for web based search indices that are, well, simple. what it does: it extracts all links from a given page. every single one. she's a collector. π«Ά
and here's the part you gotta hear, bestie:
this class exports no public interface. zero. none. everything goes through WWW::Search objects, periodt. so don't go poking at it directly, m'kay? π
also the manpage itself is out here being honest with us:
note that this module will probably get a lot of false hits. π
that's not me being shady, that's literally the documentation warning you. it's giving "she tries her best" energy and honestly I respect it. it's a simple search class, what did you expect, a miracle? πΈ
