XML::Parser::Style::ETree - Parse xml to simple tree
use XML::Parser;
my $p = XML::Parser->new( Style => 'ETree' );
<root at="key">
<nest>
first
<v>a</v>
mid
<v at="a">b</v>
<vv></vv>
last
</nest>
</root>
will be
{
root => {
'-at' => 'key',
nest => {
'#text' => 'firstmidlast',
vv => '',
v => [

{

}
- $TEXT{ATTR} [ = '-' ]
- Allow to set prefix for name of attribute nodes;
<item attr="value" />
# will be
item => { -attr => 'value' };
# with
$TEXT{ATTR} = '+';
# will be
item => { '+attr' => 'value' };
- $TEXT{NODE} [ = '#text' ]
- Allow to set name for text nodes
<item><sub attr="t"></sub>Text value</item>
# will be
item => { sub => { -attr => "t" }, #text => 'Text value' };
# with
$TEXT{NODE} = '';
# will be
item => { sub => { -attr => "t" }, '' => 'Text value' };
- $TEXT{JOIN} [ = '' ]
- Allow to set join separator for text node, splitted by subnodes
<item>Test1<sub />Test2</item>
# will be
item => { sub => '', #text => 'Test1Test2' };
# with
$TEXT{JOIN} = '+';
# will be
item => { sub => '', #text => 'Test1+Test2' };
- $TEXT{TRIM} [ = 1 ]
- Trim leading and trailing whitespace from text nodes
<item> Test1 <sub /> Test2 </item>
# will be
item => { sub => '', #text => 'Test1Test2' };
# with
$TEXT{TRIM} = 0;
# will be
item => { sub => '', #text => ' Test1 Test2 ' };
- %FORCE_ARRAY
- Allow to force nodes to be represented always as arrays. If name is empty
string, then ot means ALL
<item><sub attr="t"></sub>Text value</item>
# will be
item => { sub => { -attr => "t" }, #text => 'Text value' };
# with
$FORCE_ARRAY{sub} = 1;
# will be
item => { sub => [ { -attr => "t" } ], #text => 'Text value' };
# with
$FORCE_ARRAY{''} = 1;
# will be
item => [ { sub => [ { -attr => "t" } ], #text => 'Text value' } ];
- %FORCE_HASH
- Allow to force text-only nodes to be represented always as hashes. If name
is empty string, then ot means ALL
<item><sub>Text value</sub><any>Text value</any></item>
# will be
item => { sub => 'Text value', any => 'Text value' };
# with
$FORCE_HASH{sub} = 1;
# will be
item => { sub => { #text => 'Text value' }, any => 'Text value' };
# with
$FORCE_HASH{''} = 1;
# will be
item => { sub => { #text => 'Text value' }, any => { #text => 'Text value' } };
- @STRIP_KEY
- Allow to strip something from tag names by regular expressions
<a:item><b:sub>Text value</b:sub></a:item>
# will be
'a:item' => { 'b:sub' => 'Text value' };
# with
@STRIP_KEY = (qr/^[^:]+:/);
# will be
'item' => { 'sub' => 'Text value' };
- XML::Parser
The parser itself
- XML::Parser::EasyTree
Another EasyTree (I didn't found it before my first commit of
this package because of missing '::Style' in it's name)
But since XML::Parser::EasyTree and
XML::Parser::Style::EasyTree use same style name, they're mutual
exclusive ;(
So, all the functionality was moved to ETree, and EasyTree was
kept as a compatibility wrapper
- XML::Bare
Very-very fast XML parser. Recommend to look
- XML::Hash::LX
Similar behaviour, same output, but using XML::LibXML
