NAME
Web::Scraper::LibXML - Drop-in replacement for Web::Scraper to use LibXML
SYNOPSIS
use Web::Scraper::LibXML;
# same as Web::Scraper
my $scraper = scraper { ... };
DESCRIPTION
Web::Scraper::LibXML is a drop-in replacement for Web::Scraper to use the fast libxml-based HTML tree builder, HTML::TreeBuilder::LibXML.
This is almost identical to HTML::TreeBuilder::LibXML's replace_original installer, like:
use HTML::TreeBuilder::LibXML;
HTML::TreeBuilder::LibXML->replace_original();
use Web::Scraper;
my $scraper = scraper { ... };
# this code uses LibXML parser
which overrides HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath's new() constructor so that ALL of your code using HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath is switched to the
libxml based parser.
This module, instead, gives you more control over which TreeBuilder to use, depending on the site etc.
