💖 XML::CommonNS 💖

okay bestie, so this is a Perl module from the User Contributed Perl Documentation crowd, and it's literally just a big ol' list of namespaces you're gonna use all the time. no cap. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

XML::CommonNS — a whole directory of the namespaces everybody keeps needing, so you don't have to go hunting for them every single time. it's giving "commonly used namespaces" and it's giving it flawlessly. 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

# import $RDF, $RDFS, $OWL, $DC
use XML::CommonNS qw(RDF RDFS OWL DC);

my %CONFIG = (
    Namespaces    => {
        rdf  => "$RDF",
        rdfs => "$RDFS",
        owl  => "$OWL",
        foaf => "$FOAF",
    },
    ExpandQNames => 1,
);

# or the uri() method

my $foaf = XML::CommonNS->uri('FOAF');

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so the whole vibe here is: you just import whichever namespaces you want from the list below, and boom, they're yours. ✨ every one of them is an XML::NamespaceFactory object, which means they work as plain old strings and as XML::NamespaceFactory objects. want to know why that's lowkey amazing? go peek at XML::NamespaceFactory, it explains itself. 💖

ngl, the author hesitated for a while before releasing this one. 😭 because like, a directory of namespaces can't be exhaustive (and honestly almost certainly shouldn't be), so it's full of editorial decisions, and he wasn't sure it was even CPAN worthy. but then he got so tired of tracking down namespaces in every single tiny XML muning script he wrote, that he just wrote it for himself. and after using it for a bit, he was like "why wouldn't everyone else find this useful too?" and honestly? he ate. 👑

🦋 NAMESPACES 🦋

here's everything currently available, bestie. if you think one deserves to be added — and it has to be common enough, that's the bar — just slide into the author's mentions and let him know. 🫶

those marked with a star are subject to change. and not like "maybe" subject to change. he WILL change them when the corresponding specification changes. periodt. (the original says "start" instead of "star" — typos are iconic, we keep them 🥰)
