Templa...:Simple(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

Template::Plugin::XML::Simple — it's a plugin interface to XML::Simple, bestie 💖

Okay so real quick, before we even get into it: this page lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual, and the page itself is Templa...:Simple(3pm). Yes the title is truncated like that, no I don't know why, it's just giving mysterious 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

# load plugin and specify XML file to parse
[% USE xml = XML.Simple(xml_file_or_text) %]

That's it. That's the whole vibe. Load it, point it at a file (or a chunk of text), go off 👑

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So basically this is a Template Toolkit plugin that interfaces to the XML::Simple module. Like, Template Toolkit wanted to hang out with XML::Simple, and this plugin is the mutual friend who made the introduction happen 🫶

It's a wrapper. It's a little bridge. It's doing the emotional labour so you don't have to 🌈

💜 AUTHORS 💜

• This plugin wrapper module was written by Andy Wardley 🌟
• The XML::Simple module — which implements all the core functionality — was written by Grant McLean 🌟

Two icons, one plugin. We love a collab 😭💖
