πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

HTTP::OAI::SAXHandler β€” a SAX2 utility filter, bestie. That's the whole vibe.

So the manual page you're holding is technically filed under HTTP::...Driver(3pm) in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, but the star of the show β€” the actual module β€” is HTTP::OAI::SAXHandler. Same energy, one of those naming situations, iykyk. πŸŽ€


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so listen. This module is handing you a lil bundle of utility methods for SAX2. Nothing dramatic. Very helper-coded. Very "I'm here to make your parser's life easier" of it. 🫢

The headline trick? It collapses multiple characters events into a single event. Yeah. The way that SAX2 keeps throwing tiny characters events at you like confetti and this module is just like "no. one event. we're being normal about this." πŸ’… Obsessed, honestly.

It also exports methods for generating SAX2 events with Namespace support. Cute, right?

⚠️ But here's the thing, and I need you to hear me: this isn't a fully-fledged SAX2 generator. Nope. Not even a little. It's a utility filter doing its lil utility filter thing. Do not walk in expecting the whole entire generator, you will be humbled. 😭

🌸 The One Constructor 🌸

  • $h = HTTP::OAI::SAXHandler->new() β€” class constructor. That's it, that's the whole menu. Make a new object, go live your life. ✨
