TODO for Parse-Taxonomy

TODO list for Perl module Parse::Taxonomy

Filehandle as argument

What would it mean for a Parse::Taxonomy subclass to accept a filehandle as an argument, rather than a file? Would that be difficult to implement?

Data migration example

Cookbook: Include recipe for predicting the result of a data migration between relational database tables.

Nested Sets

Methods in existing packages

A method in Parse::Taxonomy::MaterializedPath that would generate a Perl data structure holding a taxonomy-by-nested-set equivalent to that in the object.

A method in Parse::Taxonomy::AdjacentList that would generate a Perl data structure holding a taxonomy-by-nested-set equivalent to that in the object.

New package

Explore creation of a Parse::Taxonomy::NestedSet package which would take as input a taxonomy-by-nested-set (via a CSV file or via a components interface), created a NestedSet object against which methods such as descendant_counts(), pathify() and adjacentify() would be callable.
