NAMEPod::Simple::HTML − convert Pod to HTML

SYNOPSIS​ perl −MPod::Simple::HTML −e Pod::Simple::HTML::go thingy.pod

DESCRIPTIONThis class is for making an HTML rendering of a Pod document. This is a subclass of Pod::Simple::PullParser and inherits all its methods (and options). Note that if you want to do a batch conversion of a lot of Pod documents to HTML, you should see the module Pod::Simple::HTMLBatch.

CALLING FROM THE COMMAND LINETODO ​ perl −MPod::Simple::HTML −e Pod::Simple::HTML::go Thing.pod Thing.html

CALLING FROM PERL

Minimal code​ use Pod::Simple::HTML; ​ my $p = Pod::Simple::HTML−>new; ​ $p−>output_string(\my $html); ​ $p−>parse_file('path/to/Module/Name.pm'); ​ open my $out, '>', 'out.html' or die "Cannot open 'out.html': $!\n"; ​ print $out $html;

More detailed example​ use Pod::Simple::HTML; Set the content type: ​ $Pod::Simple::HTML::Content_decl = q{<meta http−equiv="Content−Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF−8" >}; ​ ​ my $p = Pod::Simple::HTML−>new; Include a single javascript source: ​ $p−>html_javascript('http://abc.com/a.js'); Or insert multiple javascript source in the header (or for that matter include anything, thought this is not recommended) ​ $p−>html_javascript(' ​ <script type="text/javascript" src="http://abc.com/b.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://abc.com/c.js"></script>'); Include a single css source in the header: ​ $p−>html_css('/style.css'); or insert multiple css sources: ​ $p−>html_css(' ​ <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" title="pod_stylesheet" href="http://remote.server.com/jquery.css"><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" title="pod_stylesheet" href="/style.css">'); Tell the parser where should the output go. In this case it will be placed in the $html variable: ​ my $html; ​ $p−>output_string(\$html); Parse and process a file with pod in it: ​ $p−>parse_file('path/to/Module/Name.pm');

METHODSTODO all (most?) accessorized methods The following variables need to be set before the call to the −>new constructor. Set the string that is included before the opening <html> tag: ​ $Pod::Simple::HTML::Doctype_decl = qq{<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "−//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN""http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">\n}; Set the content-type in the HTML head: (defaults to ISO−8859−1) ​ $Pod::Simple::HTML::Content_decl = q{<meta http−equiv="Content−Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF−8" >}; Set the value that will be embedded in the opening tags of F, C tags and verbatim text. F maps to <em>, C maps to <code>, Verbatim text maps to <pre> (Computerese defaults to "") ​ $Pod::Simple::HTML::Computerese = ' class="some_class_name';

html_css

html_javascript

title_prefix

title_postfix

html_header_before_titleThis includes everything before the <title> opening tag including the Document type and including the opening <title> tag. The following call will set it to be a simple HTML file: ​ $p−>html_header_before_title('<html><head><title>');

top_anchorBy default Pod::Simple::HTML adds a dummy anchor at the top of the HTML. You can change it by calling ​ $p−>top_anchor('<a name="zz" >');

html_h_levelNormally =head1 will become <h1>, =head2 will become <h2> etc. Using the html_h_level method will change these levels setting the h level of =head1 tags: ​ $p−>html_h_level(3); Will make sure that =head1 will become <h3> and =head2 will become <h4> etc...

indexSet it to some true value if you want to have an index (in reality a table of contents) to be added at the top of the generated HTML. ​ $p−>index(1);

html_header_after_titleIncludes the closing tag of </title> and through the rest of the head till the opening of the body ​ $p−>html_header_after_title('</title>...</head><body id="my_id">');

html_footerThe very end of the document: ​ $p−>html_footer( qq[\n<!−− end doc −−>\n\n</body></html>\n] );

SUBCLASSINGCan use any of the methods described above but for further customization one needs to override some of the methods: ​ package My::Pod; ​ use strict; ​ use warnings; ​ ​ use base 'Pod::Simple::HTML'; ​ ​ # needs to return a URL string such ​ # http://some.other.com/page.html ​ # #anchor_in_the_same_file ​ # /internal/ref.html ​ sub do_pod_link { ​ # My::Pod object and Pod::Simple::PullParserStartToken object ​ my ($self, $link) = @_; ​ ​ say $link−>tagname; # will be L for links ​ say $link−>attr('to'); # ​ say $link−>attr('type'); # will be 'pod' always ​ say $link−>attr('section'); ​ ​ # Links local to our web site ​ if ($link−>tagname eq 'L' and $link−>attr('type') eq 'pod') { ​ my $to = $link−>attr('to'); ​ if ($to =~ /^Padre::/) { ​ $to =~ s{::}{/}g; ​ return "/docs/Padre/$to.html"; ​ }} ​ ​ # all other links are generated by the parent class ​ my $ret = $self−>SUPER::do_pod_link($link); ​ return $ret; ​ } ​ ​ 1; Meanwhile in script.pl: ​ use My::Pod; ​ ​ my $p = My::Pod−>new; ​ ​ my $html; ​ $p−>output_string(\$html); ​ $p−>parse_file('path/to/Module/Name.pm'); ​ open my $out, '>', 'out.html' or die; ​ print $out $html; TODO maybe override do_beginning do_end
