NAME
HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath - add XPath support to HTML::TreeBuilderSYNOPSIS
use HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath; my $tree= HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath->new; $tree->parse_file( "mypage.html"); my $nb=$tree->findvalue( '/html/body//p[@class="section_title"]/span[@class="nb"]'); my $id=$tree->findvalue( '/html/body//p[@class="section_title"]/@id'); my $p= $html->findnodes( '//p[@id="toto"]')->[0]; my $link_texts= $p->findvalue( './a'); # the texts of all a elements in $p
DESCRIPTION
This module adds typical XPath methods to HTML::TreeBuilder, to make it easy to query a document.METHODS
Extra methods added both to the tree object and to each element:findnodes ($path)
Returns a list of nodes found by $path. In scalar context returns an "Tree::XPathEngine::NodeSet" object.
findnodes_as_string ($path)
Returns the text values of the nodes
findvalue ($path)
Returns either a "Tree::XPathEngine::Literal", a "Tree::XPathEngine::Boolean" or a "Tree::XPathEngine::Number" object. If the path returns a NodeSet, $nodeset->xpath_to_literal is called automatically for you (and thus a "Tree::XPathEngine::Literal" is returned). Note that for each of the objects stringification is overloaded, so you can just print the value found, or manipulate it in the ways you would a normal perl value (e.g. using regular expressions).
exists ($path)
Returns true if the given path exists.
matches($path)
Returns true if the element matches the path.
find ($path)
The find function takes an XPath expression (a string) and returns either a Tree::XPathEngine::NodeSet object containing the nodes it found (or empty if no nodes matched the path), or one of XML::XPathEngine::Literal (a string), XML::XPathEngine::Number, or XML::XPathEngine::Boolean. It should always return something - and you can use ->isa() to find out what it returned. If you need to check how many nodes it found you should check $nodeset->size. See XML::XPathEngine::NodeSet.
