HTML::Breadcrumbs - module to produce HTML 'breadcrumb trails'.
# Procedural interace
use HTML::Breadcrumbs qw(breadcrumbs);
print breadcrumbs(path => '/foo/bar/bog.html');
# prints: Home > Foo > Bar > Bog (the first three as links)
# More complex version - some explicit element labels + extras
print breadcrumbs(
path => '/foo/bar/biff/bog.html',
labels => {
'bog.html' => 'Various Magical Stuff',
'/foo' => 'Foo Foo',
bar => 'Bar Bar',
'/' => 'Start',
},
sep => ' :: ',
format => '<a target="_blank" href="%s">%s</a>',
);
# prints: Start :: Foo Foo :: Bar Bar :: Biff :: Various Magical Stuff
# Object interface
use HTML::Breadcrumbs;
# Create
$bc = HTML::Breadcrumbs->new(
path => $path,
labels => {
'download.html' => 'Download',
foo => 'Bar',
'x.html' => 'The X Files',
},
);
# Render
print $bc->render(sep => ' :: ');
HTML::Breadcrumbs is a module used to create HTML 'breadcrumb trails' i.e. an ordered set of html links locating the current page within a hierarchy.
HTML::Breadcrumbs splits the given path up into a list of elements, derives labels to use for each of these elements, and then renders this list as N-1 links using the derived label, with the final element being just a label.
Both procedural and object-oriented interfaces are provided. The OO interface is useful if you want to separate object creation and initialisation from rendering or display, or for subclassing.
Both interfaces allow you to munge the path in various ways (see the roots and indexes arguments); set labels either explicitly via a hashref or via a callback subroutine (see labels); and control the formatting of elements via sprintf patterns or a callback subroutine (see format and format_last).
The procedural interface is the breadcrumbs() subroutine (not exported by default), which uses a named parameter style. Example usage:
# Procedural interace
use HTML::Breadcrumbs qw(breadcrumbs);
print breadcrumbs(
path => $path,
labels => {
'download.html' => 'Download',
foo => 'Bar',
'x.html' => 'The X Files',
},
sep => ' :: ',
format => '<a class="breadcrumbs" href="%s">%s</a>',
format_last => '<span class="bclast">%s</span>,
);
The object interface consists of two public methods: the traditional new() for object creation, and render() to return the formatted breadcrumb trail as a string (to_string() is an alias for render). Arguments are passed in the same named parameter style used in the procedural interface. All arguments can be passed to either method (using new() is preferred, although using render() for formatting arguments can be a useful convention).
Example usage:
# OO interface
use HTML::Breadcrumbs;
$bc = HTML::Breadcrumbs->new(path => $path);
# Later
print $bc->render(sep => ' :: ');
# OR
$bc = HTML::Breadcrumbs->new(
path => $path,
labels => {
'download.html' => 'Download',
foo => 'Bar',
'x.html' => 'The X Files',
},
sep => ' :: ',
format => '<a class="breadcrumbs" href="%s">%s</a>',
format_last => '<span class="bclast">%s</span>,
);
print $bc->render(); # Same as bc->to_string()
breadcrumbs() takes the following parameters:
PATH PROCESSING
map => {
'/' => '/home.html',
'/foo' => '/foo/foo.html',
'bar' => '/foo/bar.html',
},
/home.html > /foo/foo.html > /foo/bar.html > Bog
LABELS
C<$sub->($elt, $base, $last)>
RENDERING
C<$sub->($elt, $label)>.
sprintf $format, $element,
$label.
$sub-($label)>.
sprintf $format_last, $label.
