WWW::S...generic(3pm)
π WWW::S...generic β like, the group chat of WWW::Shorten modules π
okay bestie, so this is WWW::S...generic(3pm) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and honestly? it's the backstage pass of the whole WWW::Shorten universe. every module in the family borrows from it. it's giving shared-locker energy. π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
WWW::Shorten::generic β the methods that are shared across, like, all the WWW::Shorten modules. no cap.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
use WWW::Shorten 'SomeSubclass';
that's it. that's the whole vibe. you just use WWW::Shorten and point it at a subclass and it handles the rest. π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
this lil file contains the methods that get shared across every single WWW::Shorten implementation module. think of it as the base layer of the fit that every subclass gets to wear. it's not the main character, it's the foundation, and honestly the foundation always eats. π
π FUNCTIONS π
π ua
returns the object's LWP::Useragent attribute. and if one doesn't already exist yet? it goes ahead and creates a brand new one for you. like, no worries bestie, it's already handled. β¨
π quick recap so you don't lose the plot: it's shared methods, it returns/creates anLWP::Useragent, and it's the backbone of everyWWW::Shortenmodule out there. iykyk. π§
anyway, that's the whole page, mwah. this one shipped as part of perl v5.36.0, dated 2022-11-19, and yes she's still iconic, still holding down the shared-methods department, still slaying. πβπΈ bye pookie, go shorten some URLs π¦β¨
