# Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable::Folder(3pm)

Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable::Folder object

## NAME

Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable::Folder - Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable::Folder object

## SYNOPSIS

```
  use Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable;
  my $document=Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable->new;
  my $folder=$document->Folder(name=>"My Folder");
```

## DESCRIPTION

Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable::Folder is a Geo::GoogleEarth::Pluggable::Base with a few other methods.

## USAGE

```
  my $folder=$document->Folder();  #add folder to $document
  my $subfolder=$folder->Folder(); #add folder to $folder
```

## METHODS

### initialize

We overide the default "initialize" method in order to append the "plugins" method from Module::Pluggable on to the packages list of the Method::Autoload package.

The "packages" property is what is needed by Method::Autoload package.  The "plugins" method is what is provided by Module::Pluggable.  So, the Folder package now has available to it every method in the "Plugins" folder at runtime.

### Folder

Constructs a new Folder object and appends it to the parent folder object.  Returns the object reference if you need to make any setting changes after construction.

```
  my $folder=$folder->Folder(name=>"My Folder");
  $folder->Folder(name=>"My Folder");
```

### NetworkLink

Constructs a new NetworkLink object and appends it to the parent folder object.  Returns the object reference if you need to make any setting changes after construction.

```
  $folder->NetworkLink(name=>"My NetworkLink", url=>"./anotherdoc.kml");
```

### LookAt

Constructs a new LookAt object and returns the object reference to assign to other object "lookat" properties.

```
  $document->LookAt(
                    latitude  => $lat,    #decimal degrees
                    longitude => $lon,    #decimal degrees
                    range     => $range,  #meters
                    tilt      => $tilt,   #decimal degrees from veritical
                    heading   => $header, #decimal degrees from North
                   );
```

### type

Returns the object type.

```
  my $type=$folder->type;
```

### node

### data

Pushes arguments onto data array and returns an array or reference that holds folder object content.  This is a list of objects that supports a type and structure method.

```
  my $data=$folder->data;
  my @data=$folder->data;
  $folder->data($placemark);
```
