Babble::DataSource::OPML - OPML source fetcher for Babble

SYNOPSIS

Top

 use Babble;
 use Babble::DataSource::OPML;

 my $babble = Babble->new ();
 $babble->add_sources (
	Babble::DataSource::OPML->new (
		-id => "Planet Debian",
		-location => "http://planet.debian.net/opml.xml",
		-babble => \$babble,
	)
 );
 ...

DESCRIPTION

Top

Babble::DataSource::OPML implements an unordinary data source for Babble. Instead of collecting data itself, this class parses an OPML document, and passes the information to a set of Babble::DataSource::RSS objects. For each outline, a new object is created, and the new() method returns an array of Babble::DataSource::RSS objects.

METHODS

Top

new(%params)

Parses the OPML document specified in the -location parameter, and returns an array of Babble::DataSource::RSS objects.

If one wants to use the caching provided by Babble, a reference to the Babble object should be passed in the -babble parameter.

collect()

Returns an error - this should not be called, ever.
