HTML::...omment(3pm)

💬 NAME 💬

okay bestie, gather round — this is HTML::TokeParser::Simple::Token::Comment, aka the Token.pm comment class. she's the little glow-up wrapper that handles comment tokens and she's literally so iconic for it 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the vibe, copy-paste it and go 👑

use HTML::TokeParser::Simple;
my $p = HTML::TokeParser::Simple->new( $somefile );

while ( my $token = $p->get_token ) {
    # This prints all text in an HTML doc (i.e., it strips the HTML)
    next unless $token->is_text;
    print $token->as_is;
}

like… look at that loop. she's looping. she's filtering. she's printing. main character energy fr fr 🦋

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so basically? this is the class for comment tokens. that's her whole job. comments. she ate and left no crumbs 💅

and if you wanna go deep-deep on what comments actually are under the hood, go read HTML::Parser — it has the detailed info about comments, no cap 📚✨

👑 OVERRIDDEN METHODS 👑

🍓 is_comment

is_comment() will return true if the token is the DTD at the top of the HTML. yes bestie, that's what the doc says and we're reporting it faithfully, iykyk 🙈

not me double-checking that this method lives under OVERRIDDEN METHODS — she does, she's a little overachiever 🎀
