RDF::vCard::Entity(3pm)

Constructor

•

new(%options)

Returns a new RDF::vCard::Entity object.

The only option worth worrying about is profile which sets the profile for the entity. This defaults to "VCARD".

RDF::vCard::Entity overloads stringification, so you can do the following:

  my $vcard = RDF::vCard::Entity->new;
  print $vcard if $vcard =~ /VCARD/i;

Methods

•

to_string()

Formats the object according to RFC 2425 and RFC 2426.

•

to_jcard()

Formats the object according to <http://microformats.org/wiki/jcard>.

to_jcard(1) will return the same data but without the JSON stringification.

•

add_to_model($model)

Given an RDF::Trine::Model, adds triples to the model for this entity.

•

node()

Returns an RDF::Trine::Node::Blank identifying this entity.

•

entity_order()

Returns a string along the lines of "Surname;Forename" useful for sorting a list of entities.

•

profile()

Returns the entity type - e.g. "VCARD".

•

lines()

Returns an arrayref of RDF::vCard::Line objects in the order they were originally added.

This excludes the "BEGIN:VCARD" and "END:VCARD" lines.

•

add($line)

Add a RDF::vCard::Line.

•

get($property)

Returns a list of RDF::vCard::Line objects for the given property.

e.g.

  print "It has an address!\n" if ($vcard->get('ADR'));

•

"matches($property, $regexp)"

Checks to see if a property's value matches a regular expression.

  print "In London\n" if $vcard->matches(ADR => /London/);

•

add_component($thing)

Adds a nested entity within this one. This method is unused for vCard, but is a hook for the benefit of RDF::iCalendar.

•

"components"

Lists nested entities within this one.
