NAME XML::Hash::XS - Simple and fast hash to XML conversion SYNOPSIS use XML::Hash::XS; my $xmlstr = hash2xml \%hash; hash2xml \%hash, output => $FH; DESCRIPTION This module implements simple hash to XML converter written in C using libxml2 library. FUNCTIONS hash2xml $hash, [ %options ] $hash is reference to hash hash2xml { node1 => 'value1', node2 => [ 'value21', { node22 => 'value22' } ], node3 => \'value3', node4 => sub { return 'value4' }, node5 => sub { return { node51 => 'value51' } }, }, canonical => 1, indent => 2, ; will convert to: value1 value21 value22 value3 value4 value51 and (use_attr=1): hash2xml { node1 => 'value1', node2 => [ 'value21', { node22 => 'value22' } ], node3 => \'value3', node4 => sub { return 'value4' }, node5 => sub { return { node51 => 'value51' } }, }, use_attr => 1, canonical => 1, indent => 2, ; will convert to: value21 OPTIONS root [ = 'root' ] Root node name. version [ = '1.0' ] XML document version encoding [ = 'utf-8' ] XML output encoding indent [ = 0 ] if indent great than "0", XML output should be indented according to its hierarchic structure. This value determines the number of spaces. if indent is "0", XML output will all be on one line. output [ = undef ] XML output method if output is undefined, XML document dumped into string. if output is FH, XML document writes directly to a filehandle or a stream. canonical [ = 0 ] if canonical is "1", converter will be write hashes sorted by key. if canonical is "0", order of the element will be pseudo-randomly. use_attr [ = 0 ] if use_attr is "1", converter will be use the attributes. if use_attr is "0", converter will be use tags only.
