Data::Format::HTML(3pm)

NAME

Data::Format::HTML - Format Perl data structures into simple HTML

SYNOPSIS

 use Data::Format::HTML;
 
 my $f = Data::Format::HTML->new;
 
 my %hash = (simple => 'hash');
 
 # Of course it's very unlikely that you won't deal ever with this
 # kind of structure, but HTML is able to hand it all anyway :)
 my $struct = {
        foo                             => 'bar',
        1                                       => 2,
        \'hello'                        => 'goodbye',
        array_ref                       => [qw/one two three/],
        nested_hash                     => \%hash,
        [qw/1 2/]                       => sub { die; },
        even_more                       => { arr => {
                        1 => [2, 3, 4],
                        this_is_insane => { a => { b => { c => { d => { e => 'z'}}}}}
                },                                      
        },
 };
 
 $struct->{'Data::Format::HTML handles it all'} = $f;
 
 print $f->format( $struct );

And that will output the following insane, but possible, for the sake of showing, HTML:

In theory you can pass any kind of Perl data structure to "format" and you will get its data HTML-formatted.

TODO

•: A LOT. ;)

•: Explain how CSS can prettify the tables (specification for everything)

•: Get CSS.

•: Better support for GLOB, CODE, REF and company.

•: Extend this documentation.
