NAME
Data::asXML - convert data structures to/from XML
SYNOPSIS
use Data::asXML;
my $dxml = Data::asXML->new();
my $dom = $dxml->encode({
'some' => 'value',
'in' => [ qw(a data structure) ],
});
my $data = $dxml->decode(q{
<HASH>
<KEY name="some"><VALUE>value</VALUE></KEY>
<KEY name="in">
<ARRAY>
<VALUE>a</VALUE>
<VALUE>data</VALUE>
<VALUE>structure</VALUE>
</ARRAY>
</KEY>
</HASH>
});
For more examples see t/01_Data-asXML.t.
WARNING
experimental, use on your own risk :-)
DESCRIPTION
There are couple of modules mapping XML to data structures. (XML::Compile, XML::TreePP, XML::Simple, ...) but they aim at making data structures adapt to XML structure. This defines simple XML tags to represent data structures. It makes the serialization to (later also from) XML possible. For the moment it is an experiment. I plan to use it for passing data structures to XSLT for transformations.
PROPERTIES
- pretty
-
(default 1) will insert text nodes to the XML to make the output indented.
METHODS
new()
Object constructor.
encode($what)
From structure $what
generates XML::LibXML::Document DOM. Call ->toString
to get XML string. For more actions see XML::LibXML.
decode($xmlstring)
Takes $xmlstring
and converts to data structure.
