Catman...::MODS(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

Catmandu::Importer::MODS — bestie, it's the Catmandu importer for pulling in mods records 💖

(also known around these parts as the Catman...::MODS(3pm) page from User Contributed Perl Documentation, section 3pm, no cap 🫶)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

use Catmandu::Importer::MODS;

my $importer = Catmandu::Importer::MODS->new(file => "modsCollection.xml");

my $numModsElements = $importer->each(sub{
    my $modsElement = shift; # a MODS::Element::Mods object
});

literally the whole vibe in four lines ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this Catmandu::Importer reads MODS records so Catmandu can do its little processing thing on them 💅

• got a simple mods document? then you get one MODS::Element::Mods item imported. one. single. iconic.
• got a modsCollection instead? then several items get imported. slay 🔥

and if you want the methods and options that come from Catmandu::Importer, Catmandu::Iterable, Catmandu::Logger and Catmandu::Fixable — go look at those modules, they're where all that inherited goodness lives 👑

⚠️ bestie please, make sure your files are expressed in UTF-8. not playing about that one 🫶

🎀 CONFIGURATION 🎀

• type — defaults to "xml", because MODS is usually expressed in XML (obviously 💁). wanna use a custom JSON format instead? set it to "json" — or just hand it a file with the .json extension and it'll clock it. this custom JSON format was introduced in the module MODS::Record ⭐
