Workflo...::LazyOR(3)

💖 Workflow::Condition::LazyOR 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the manual for Workflow::Condition::LazyOR, which lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual pages (that's section 3, for all my library-function girlies 🎀). pull up a chair, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let's get into it.

---

✨ VERSION ✨

this doc is describing version 2.09 of this package. periodt. 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the vibe: this thing uses nested conditions (peep Workflow::Condition::Nested if you wanna go deeper, iykyk), and it evaluates the conditions you give it using lazy evaluation — meaning it returns true at the very first nested condition that comes back true. like, it's not gonna do extra work, she's efficient. 💅

and if all the nested conditions return false? then LazyOR returns false too. that's it, that's the whole personality. 💀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

first up, in condition.yaml:

condition:
- name: cond1
  ...
- name: cond2
  ...
- name cond3
  ...
- name: check_prereqs
  class: Workflow::Condition::LazyOR
  param:
  - name: condition
    value: cond1
  - name: condition
    value: cond2
  - name: condition
    value: cond3

and then over in workflow.yaml:

state:
- name: CHECK_PREREQS
  autorun: yes
  action:
  - name: null_1
    resulting_state: HAVE_PREREQS
    condition:
    - name: check_prereqs
  - name: null_2
    resulting_state: FAILURE
    condition:
    - name: !check_prereqs

look at her go. main character energy fr fr. 👑

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

these are the parameters you can configure in the "param" entity of the condition inside your YAML config. let's break it down:

💜 condition, conditionN

the condition parameter can be specified in either of two ways — as a list of repeating entries, or with a unique integer appended onto the condition string. two paths, same destiny, pick your fighter. 🌈

option one, the repeating list:

param:
- name: condition
  value: first_condition_to_test
- name: condition
  value: second_condition_to_test

or option two, the numbered girlies:

param:
- name: condition1
  value: first_condition_to_test
- name: condition2
  value: second_condition_to_test

both slay, both valid. 🫶
