=head1 METHODS

=head2 $obj = I<CLASS>->new()

Instantiates I<CLASS>.

=head2 $yn = I<OBJ>->get_dry_run()

Returns a boolean that indicates whether I<OBJ> is set to dry-run mode.

=head2 $obj = I<OBJ>->set_dry_run( [$yn] )

Sets or unsets dry-run mode in I<OBJ>. If the parameter is not given,
this defaults to B<ON>.

=head2 $output = I<OBJ>->run_cmd( $CMD )

Passes an arbitrary command string to nftables and returns its output.

=head2 @opts = I<OBJ>->get_output_options()

Returns a list of names, e.g., C<json> or C<guid>. Must be called
in list context.

Possible values are libnftables’s various C<NFT_CTX_OUTPUT_*> constants
(minus that prefix).

    my ($self) = @_;

    my $flags = $self->_output_get_flags();

    return _flags_to_names($flags, $output_opts_hr);
}

=head2 $obj = I<OBJ>->set_output_options( @NAMES )

A setter complement to C<get_output_options()>.

=cut

sub set_output_options {
    my ($self, @opts) = @_;

    my $flags = _names_to_flags( $OUTPUT_OPT_PREFIX, @opts );

    return $self->_output_set_flags($flags);
}

=head2 @opts = I<OBJ>->get_debug_options()

Like C<get_output_options()> but for debug options.

Possible values are libnftables’s various C<NFT_DEBUG_*> constants
(minux that prefix).

=cut

    my ($self) = @_;

}

=head2 $obj = I<OBJ>->set_debug_options( @NAMES )

A setter complement to C<get_debug_options()>.

=cut

    my ($self, @opts) = @_;

    my $flags = _names_to_flags( $DEBUG_OPT_PREFIX, @opts );
