NAME

6       Config::Generator::XML - Config::Generator XML support
7

DESCRIPTION

9       This module eases XML content generation by providing several functions
10       to generate XML abstractions (xml_blank(), xml_comment(),
11       xml_element(), xml_parse() and xml_wrap()) and one function to convert
12       these abstractions into strings (xml_string()).
13
14       Note: only a subset of XML is supported. This means that this module is
15       not suited for HTML generation.
16

FUNCTIONS

18       This module provides the following functions (none of them being
19       exported by default):
20
21       xml_blank()
22           return an XML abstraction representing a blank line
23
24       xml_comment(STRING)
25           return an XML abstraction representing a comment
26
27       xml_element(NAME[, ATTR[, BODY]])
28           return an XML abstraction representing an element:
29
30           •   ATTR: defines the attributes as a hash or array reference
31
32           •   BODY: defines the body as a string or list of XML abstractions
33
34       xml_parse(STRING)
35           parse the given string (that must contain well formed XML) and
36           return the list of XML abstractions it contains
37
38       xml_string(ELEMENT[, OPTIONS])
39           return the string representation of the given XML abstraction;
40           supported options:
41
42           •   "indent": how many spaces to prepend to each line (default: 0)
43
44           •   "line": maximum line length (longer lines will be wrapped)
45
46           •   "sort": which elements to have their attributes sorted
47               differently, as a hash: name => sorting function
48
49           •   "split": which elements to split (i.e. to have their attributes
50               split on different lines), as a hash: name => boolean
51
52       xml_wrap(NAMES, ELEMENTS)
53           wrap the given XML elements into nested elements of the given names
54           (with no attributes)
