Name

Text::Markup::Pod - Pod parser for Text::Markup

Synopsis

  use Text::Markup;
  my $pod = Text::Markup->new->parse(file => 'README.pod');

Description

This is the Pod parser for Text::Markup. It runs the file through Pod::Simple::XHTML and returns the result. If the Pod contains any non-ASCII characters, the encoding must be declared either via a BOM or via the "=encoding" tag. Text::Markup::Pod recognizes files with the following extensions as Pod:

.pod

.pm

.pl

Options

You may pass an arrayref of settings to this parser which changes the output returned. For example, to suppress an HTML header and footer, pass:

  my $pod_fragment = Text::Markup->new->parse(
          file => 'README.pod',
          options => [
              html_header => '',
              html_footer => '',
          ]
  );

This implementation makes method calls to the Pod::Simple::XHTML parser using the key as the method name and the value as the parameter list to pass.

See Pod::Simple::XHTML and Pod::Simple for the full list of options and inherited options which can be manipulated.
