✨ NAME ✨

HTML::HTML5::Builder::Document — literally the most low-key sub-class of XML::LibXML::Document you'll ever meet, no cap 💅

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay bestie so here's the tea ☕ — when you call HTML::HTML5::Builder::html(), what you get back is an HTML::HTML5::Builder::Document object. that's it, that's the girl. 🫶

she inherits from XML::LibXML::Document (so she got the whole family bloodline going on), BUT she overloads stringification using HTML::HTML5::Writer. so when you stringify her, she does NOT sound like her dad. she has her own vibe ✨

and just so you know what you're working with, here's a non-exhaustive list of the interesting methods these objects carry around with them:

  • toString — outputs XML, like a good well-behaved little document 🧚
  • toStringHTML — outputs HTML instead, for when you're feeling ✨browser-friendly✨
  • documentElement — hands you back the root element as an XML::LibXML::Element 👑
  • findnodes — search through the doc using XPath, which is giving detective main character energy 🔍
note: that list is explicitly not the whole thing, okay? it's just the interesting ones. don't come for her about the methods she didn't put on the list 💀
