autodie::skip(3pm)

✨ autodie::skip ✨

okay so real talk, this is autodie::skip from section 3pm of the Perl Programmers Reference Guide, and it is genuinely the shortest little icon you will ever read 🎀

💖 NAME 💖

autodie::skip — the vibe where a package gets skipped when autodie throws its exceptions 👑

✨ SYNPOSIS ✨

use parent qw(autodie::skip);

(yes bestie, that's the whole thing. screaming. 😭)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So like, this is a dummy class, and its entire main-character job is to signal that any class inheriting it should be skipped when reporting exceptions from autodie. That's it. That's the whole personality 🫶

Why would you want this? Because utility classes like Path::Tiny wanna report the location of where they were called when something fails, not get buried under layers of internal call frames. It's giving "don't @ me, @ the person who actually called me" energy, and honestly? Iconic 💅

ngl, if your class has a better way of doing roles, then you should not load this class. Instead, just simply say that your class DOES "autodie::skip" — that's the move. periodt.
