gedcom::individual
Gedcom::Individual(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Gedcom::Individual(3pm)
NAME
Gedcom::Individual - a module to manipulate Gedcom individuals
Version 1.16 - 24th April 2009
SYNOPSIS
use Gedcom::Individual;
my $name = $i->name;
my @rel = $i->father;
my @rel = $i->mother;
my @rel = $i->parents;
my @rel = $i->husband;
my @rel = $i->wife;
my @rel = $i->spouse;
my @rel = $i->siblings;
my @rel = $i->brothers;
my @rel = $i->sisters;
my @rel = $i->children;
my @rel = $i->sons;
my @rel = $i->daughters;
my @rel = $i->descendents;
my @rel = $i->ancestors;
my $ok = $i->delete;
my @fam = $i->famc;
my @fam = $i->fams;
DESCRIPTION
A selection of subroutines to handle individuals in a gedcom file.
Derived from Gedcom::Record.
HASH MEMBERS
None.
METHODS
name
my $name = $i->name;
Return the name of the individual, with spaces normalised.
cased_name
my $cased_name = $i->cased_name;
Return the name of the individual, with spaces normalised, and surname in upper case.
surname
my $surname = $i->surname;
Return the surname of the individual.
given_names
my $given_names = $i->given_names;
Return the given names of the individual, with spaces normalised.
soundex
my $soundex = $i->soundex;
Return the soundex code of the individual. This function is only available if Text::Soundex.pm is available.
sex
my $sex = $i->sex;
Return the sex of the individual, "M", "F" or "U".
Individual functions
my @rel = $i->father;
my @rel = $i->mother;
my @rel = $i->parents;
my @rel = $i->husband;
my @rel = $i->wife;
my @rel = $i->spouse;
my @rel = $i->siblings;
my @rel = $i->older_siblings;
my @rel = $i->younger_siblings;
my @rel = $i->brothers;
my @rel = $i->sisters;
my @rel = $i->children;
my @rel = $i->sons;
my @rel = $i->daughters;
my @rel = $i->descendents;
my @rel = $i->ancestors;
Return a list of individuals related to $i.
Each function, even those with a singular name such as father(), returns a list of individuals holding that relation to $i.
More complex relationships can easily be found using the map function. eg:
my @grandparents = map { $_->parents } $i->parents;
delete
my $ok = $i->delete;
Delete $i from the data structure.
This function will also set $i to undef. This is to remind you that the individual cannot be used again.
Returns true iff $i was successfully deleted.
Family functions
my @fam = $i->famc;
my @fam = $i->fams;
Return a list of families to which $i belongs.
famc() returns those families in which $i is a child. fams() returns those families in which $i is a spouse.
