NAME

CommonMark::Node - Node of the CommonMark parse tree

SYNOPSIS

my $html = $node->render(
    format => 'html',
    safe   => 1,
);

my $header    = $doc->first_child;
my $level     = $header->get_header_level;
my $paragraph = $header->next;

my $link = CommonMark::Node->new(CommonMark::NODE_LINK);
$link->set_url('http://example.com/');
my $text = CommonMark::Node->new(CommonMark::NODE_TEXT);
$text->set_literal('link text');
$link->append_child($link_text);
$paragraph->append_child($link);

$doc->render_html;

DESCRIPTION

CommonMark::Node represents a node of the parse tree.

new

my $node = CommonMark::Node->new($type);

Creates a new node of type $type. See "Node types" for a list of types. Note that the node creation functions provide a more powerful interface.

Rendering

my $result = $node->render(
    format        => $string,
    sourcepos     => $bool,    # Optional
    hardbreaks    => $bool,    # Optional
    nobreaks      => $bool,    # Optional
    safe          => $bool,    # Optional
    width         => $int,     # Optional
);

Convenience function to render documents. Supported formats are 'html', 'xml', 'man', 'commonmark', and 'latex'.

sourcepos, hardbreaks, nobreaks, and safe enable the respective render options.

width is passed to renderers that support it.

my $html  = $node->render_html( [$options] )
my $xml   = $node->render_xml( [$options] )
my $man   = $node->render_man( [$options], [$width] )
my $md    = $node->render_commonmark( [$options], [$width] )
my $latex = $node->render_latex( [$options], [$width] )

These methods render the contents of the node in the respective format.

$options is a bit field created by ORing the following constants:

CommonMark::OPT_DEFAULT => 0
CommonMark::OPT_SOURCEPOS
CommonMark::OPT_HARDBREAKS
CommonMark::OPT_SAFE
CommonMark::OPT_NOBREAKS

Render options can be imported from CommonMark with tag opt.

use CommonMark qw(:opt);

$options may be omitted and defaults to OPT_DEFAULT. See the documentation of libcmark for more details.

SOURCEPOS adds information about line numbers in the source file to the XML and HTML formats.

HARDBREAKS translates newlines in the input to line breaks in the output. This is only supported by some renderers. The HTML renderer, for example, generates a <br>.

NOBREAKS translates newlines in the input to spaces. Requires libcmark 0.25 or higher.

SAFE only affects the HTML renderer. It suppresses raw HTML blocks and some dangerous links.

$width specifies the number of characters at which lines are broken. A value of 0 disables line wrapping. The default is 0.

Accessors

# Integer values

my $int = $node->get_type;
my $int = $node->get_header_level;
my $int = $node->get_list_type;
my $int = $node->get_list_delim;
my $int = $node->get_list_start;
my $int = $node->get_list_tight;
my $int = $node->get_start_line;
my $int = $node->get_start_column;
my $int = $node->get_end_line;
my $int = $node->get_end_column;

$node->set_header_level($int);
$node->set_list_type($int);
$node->set_list_delim($int);
$node->set_list_start($int);
$node->set_list_tight($int);

# String values

my $string = $node->get_type_string;
my $string = $node->get_literal;
my $string = $node->get_title;
my $string = $node->get_url;
my $string = $node->get_fence_info;
my $string = $node->get_on_enter;
my $string = $node->get_on_exit;

$node->set_literal($string);
$node->set_title($string);
$node->set_url($string);
$node->set_fence_info($string);
$node->set_on_enter($string);
$node->set_on_exit($string);

Various accessors to get and set integer and string values of a node. Not all values are supported by every type of node. Getters return 0 or undef for unsupported values. Setters die on failure.

See "Constants" for a list of constants used for node types, list types, and list delimiters.

Tree traversal

my $iterator = $node->iterator;

Creates a new CommonMark::Iterator to walk through the descendants of the node.

my $next   = $node->next;
my $prev   = $node->previous;
my $parent = $node->parent;
my $child  = $node->first_child;
my $child  = $node->last_child;

These methods return the respective node in the tree structure.

Tree manipulation

$node->unlink;
$node->replace($other);
$node->insert_before($other);
$node->insert_after($other);
$node->prepend_child($other);
$node->append_child($other);

unlink removes a node and all its descendants from the tree.

replace replaces $node with $other, unlinking $node.

insert_before and insert_after insert the $other node before or after $node. append_child and prepend_child append or prepend $other to the children of $node.

$other is unlinked before it is inserted into its new position.

These methods may die on failure.
