xml::atom::entry

XML::Atom::Entry(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				     XML::Atom::Entry(3pm)

NAME

       XML::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:

       o   Reference to a scalar

	   This is treated as the XML body of the entry.

       o   Scalar

	   This is treated as the name of a file containing the entry XML.

       o   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.
