NAME
    Media::AssetView - Handle the Asset-Views directory organization

VERSION
    This document describes version 0.002 of Media::AssetView (from Perl
    distribution Media-AssetView), released on 2026-09-07.

SYNOPSIS
     use Media::AssetView qw(
         create_views_symlinks
     );
     my $res = create_asset_views_symlinks(root_dir => '/path/to/my/dir');

DESCRIPTION
    The Assets-Views organization scheme lets you put actual media files
    (with a specific naming convention) and can automatically create various
    views using symlinks.

    Media files are put in assets/, while symlinks are put in views/:

     ROOT_DIR
       assets/
         audio/
         a -> audio/                                                # shortcut symlink
         photo/
         p -> photo/                                                # shortcut symlink video/

                 .tag-keyword-foo_bar                               # tag files can be used to add links in views/by-keywords/ without having to rename directories

FUNCTIONS
  create_views_symlinks
    Usage:

     create_views_symlinks() -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]

    Create views symlinks in the Asset-Views directory.

    This function is not exported by default, but exportable.

    No arguments.

    Returns an enveloped result (an array).

    First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status
    code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second
    element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something
    like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual
    result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error
    response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is
    called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra
    information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional
    metadata.

    Return value: (any)

CONTRIBUTING
    To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull
    requests on GitHub.

    Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You
    can simply modify the code, then test via:

     % prove -l

    If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally
    on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla,
    Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR,
    Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two
    other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps
    required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
