XML::Atom::Entry(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML::Atom::Entry(3)NAMEXML::Atom::Entry - Atom entry
SYNOPSIS
use XML::Atom::Entry;
my $entry = XML::Atom::Entry->new;
$entry->title('My Post');
$entry->content('The content of my post.');
my $xml = $entry->as_xml;
my $dc = XML::Atom::Namespace->new(dc => 'http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/');
$entry->set($dc, 'subject', 'Food & Drink');
USAGE
XML::Atom::Entry->new([ $stream ])
Creates a new entry object, and if $stream is supplied, fills it with
the data specified by $stream.
Automatically handles autodiscovery if $stream is a URI (see below).
Returns the new XML::Atom::Entry object. On failure, returns "undef".
$stream can be any one of the following:
· Reference to a scalar
This is treated as the XML body of the entry.
· Scalar
This is treated as the name of a file containing the entry XML.
· Filehandle
This is treated as an open filehandle from which the entry XML can
be read.
$entry->content([ $content ])
Returns the content of the entry. If $content is given, sets the
content of the entry. Automatically handles all necessary escaping.
$entry->author([ $author ])
Returns an XML::Atom::Person object representing the author of the
entry, or "undef" if there is no author information present.
If $author is supplied, it should be an XML::Atom::Person object
representing the author. For example:
my $author = XML::Atom::Person->new;
$author->name('Foo Bar');
$author->email('foo@bar.com');
$entry->author($author);
$entry->link
If called in scalar context, returns an XML::Atom::Link object
corresponding to the first <link> tag found in the entry.
If called in list context, returns a list of XML::Atom::Link objects
corresponding to all of the <link> tags found in the entry.
$entry->add_link($link)
Adds the link $link, which must be an XML::Atom::Link object, to the
entry as a new <link> tag. For example:
my $link = XML::Atom::Link->new;
$link->type('text/html');
$link->rel('alternate');
$link->href('http://www.example.com/2003/12/post.html');
$entry->add_link($link);
$entry->get($ns, $element)
Given an XML::Atom::Namespace element $ns and an element name $element,
retrieves the value for the element in that namespace.
This is useful for retrieving the value of elements not in the main
Atom namespace, like categories. For example:
my $dc = XML::Atom::Namespace->new(dc => 'http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/');
my $subj = $entry->get($dc, 'subject');
$entry->getlist($ns, $element)
Just like $entry->get, but if there are multiple instances of the
element $element in the namespace $ns, returns all of them. get will
return only the first.
