NAME¶

Lire::XMLParser - Base DocBook parser.

SYNOPSIS¶

    package MyParser;
    use base qw/ Lire::XMLParser /;

DESCRIPTION¶

This package contains a Lire::XMLParser DocBook parser. It defines the relevant "_start", "_end" and "_char" methods for the DocBook subset used by Lire. All defined handlers have the form "dbk_ name_start", "dbk_ name_end" and "dbk_name_char" (when the element accepts PCDATA content). Its base functionality is to collect the DocBook markup for later use. It will subclassed most of the time.

CLIENT METHODS¶

dbk_init()¶

Subclasses should call this method whenever the state of the DocBook parse should start. This is called from the parse_start() method when the parser is used standalone.

dbk_string()¶

Returns the DocBook XML accumulated by the parser. This is returned from parse_end() method when used standalone.

XML SPECIFICATIONS METHODS IMPLEMENTATION¶

namespaces()¶

DocBook doesn't use namespace, so this method returns an empty hash reference.

elements_spec()¶

Returns the elements specification for the DocBook subset supported by Lire.
