Zonema...::Entry(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

Zonemaster::Engine::Logger::Entry — bestie, it's the module for single log entries 💖 like one (1) lil log moment, packaged up all cute.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

Zonemaster::Engine->logger->add( TAG => { some => 'arguments' });

okay so lowkey important: you should never ever need to make a log entry object all by itself, standing there alone in the void 😭 no ma'am. Log entries always get associated with a logger object and created through it. That's the whole vibe. The logger is the main character, the entry is the supporting cast 🎀

---

🦋 CLASS METHODS 🦋

• new — constructs a brand new object for u ✨ fresh out the box, no cap.
• levels — hands u back a hash where the keys are log levels as strings and the values are their matching numeric</> values. so like, name → number, the classic glow-up translation 💅
• start_time_now() — sets the logger's start time to right now, literally this exact second, no delays bestie ⏰
• reset_config() — clears the cached configuration for the test level. wiping the slate, iconic behaviour 🧹

---

💜 ATTRIBUTES 💜

• module — the name of the module this entry is associated with, or "System" if there isn't one. default fallback? "System". periodt.
• testcase — the name of the test case that generated the entry, or "Unspecified" if nobody's claiming credit 🙈
• tag — the tag that was set way back when the entry got created. that's it, that's the whole attribute.
• args — the argument hash reference that was handed over when the entry was created. the receipts, basically 🧾
• timestamp — the time after the current program started running when this entry was created. and it's a floating-point value with the precision that Time::HiRes gives u, so like, extremely precise, she's detailed ⏱️✨
• level — the log level that's associated with this log entry. the whole point of the entry tbh.

---

🎀 METHODS 🎀

• string — a simple lil method to generate a string representation of the log entry. also overloaded to the stringification operator, so she slots right into string context like she was born for it 👑
• argstr — returns the string representation of the message arguments. args, but make them a string 🪄
• printable_args — used to transform data from an internal/JSON representation into a "user friendly" one. glow-up service, basically 🌈
• numeric_level — returns the log level of the entry, but in numeric form. for when u need the number version instead of the word version 🔢

fr fr bestie: don't go constructing these entries by yourself. always let the logger do it. iykyk 💖
