XML::XPathEngine - a re-usable XPath engine for DOM-like trees

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides an XPath engine, that can be re-used by other
module/classes that implement trees.

In order to use the XPath engine, nodes in the user module need to mimic
DOM nodes. The degree of similitude between the user tree and a DOM dictates 
how much of the XPath features can be used. A module implementing all of the
DOM should be able to use this module very easily (you might need to add
the cmp method on nodes in order to get ordered result sets).

This code is a more or less direct copy of the L<XML::XPath> module by
Matt Sergeant. I only removed the XML processing part to remove the dependency
on XML::Parser, applied a couple of patches, renamed a whole lot of methods
to make Pod::Coverage happy, and changed the docs.

The article eXtending XML XPath, http://www.xmltwig.com/article/extending_xml_xpath/
should give authors who want to use this module enough background to do so.

Otherwise, my email is below ;--)

B<WARNING>: while the underlying code is rather solid, this module mostly lacks docs.
As they say, "patches welcome"...

=head1 SYNOPSIS

use XML::XPathEngine;
    
    my $tree= my_tree->new( ...);
    my $xp = XML::XPathEngine->new();
    
    my @nodeset = $xp->find('/root/kid/grandkid[1]', $tree); # find all first grankids

package XML::MyTree;

# needs to provide DOM methods

=head1 DETAILS

=head1 API

XML::XPathEngine will provide the following methods:

=head2 new

=head2 findnodes ($path, $context)

Returns a list of nodes found by $path, optionally in context $context. 
In scalar context returns an XML::XPathEngine::NodeSet object.

=head2 findnodes_as_string ($path, $context)

Returns the nodes found as a single string. The result is 
not guaranteed to be valid XML though (it could for example be just text
if the query returns attribute values).

=head2 findnodes_as_strings ($path, $context)

Returns the nodes found as a list of strings, one per node found.

=head2 findvalue ($path, $context)

Returns the result as a string (the concatenation of the values of the
result nodes).

=head2 findvalues($path, $context)

Returns the values of the result nodes as a list of strings.

=head2 exists ($path, $context)

Returns true if the given path exists.

=head2 matches($node, $path, $context)

Returns true if the node matches the path.

=head2 find ($path, $context)

The find function takes an XPath expression (a string) and returns either a
XML::XPathEngine::NodeSet object containing the nodes it found (or empty if
no nodes matched the path), or one of XML::XPathEngine::Literal (a string),
XML::XPathEngine::Number, or XML::XPathEngine::Boolean. It should always return 
something - and you can use ->isa() to find out what it returned. If you
need to check how many nodes it found you should check $nodeset->size.
See L<XML::XPathEngine::NodeSet>.

=head2 getNodeText ($path)

Returns the text string for a particular node. Returns a string,
or undef if the node doesn't exist.

=head2 set_namespace ($prefix, $uri)

Sets the namespace prefix mapping to the uri.

Normally in XML::XPathEngine the prefixes in XPath node tests take their
context from the current node. This means that foo:bar will always
match an element <foo:bar> regardless of the namespace that the prefix
foo is mapped to (which might even change within the document, resulting
in unexpected results). In order to make prefixes in XPath node tests
actually map to a real URI, you need to enable that via a call
to the set_namespace method of your XML::XPathEngine object.

=head2 clear_namespaces ()

Clears all previously set namespace mappings.

=head2 get_namespace ($prefix, $node)

Returns the uri associated to the prefix for the node (mostly for internal usage)

=head2 set_strict_namespaces ($strict)

By default, for historical as well as convenience reasons, XML::XPathEngine
has a slightly non-standard way of dealing with the default namespace.

If you search for C<//tag> it will return elements C<tag>. As far as I understand it,
if the document has a default namespace, this should not return anything.
You would have to first do a C<set_namespace>, and then search using the namespace.

Passing a true value to C<set_strict_namespaces> will activate this behaviour, passing a
false value will return it to its default behaviour.

=head2 set_var ($var. $val)

Sets an XPath variable (that can be used in queries as C<$var>)

=head2 get_var ($var)

Returns the value of the XPath variable (mostly for internal usage)

=head2 $XML::XPathEngine::Namespaces

Set this to 0 if you I<don't> want namespace processing to occur. This
will make everything a little (tiny) bit faster, but you'll suffer for it,
probably.

=head1 Node Object Model

Nodes need to provide the same API as nodes in XML::XPath (at least the access 
API, not the tree manipulation one).

=head1 Example

Please see the test files in t/ for examples on how to use XPath.

=head1 XPath extension

The module supports the XPath recommendation to the same extend as XML::XPath 
(that is, rather completely).

It includes a perl-specific extension: direct support for regular expressions.

You can use the usual (in Perl!) C<=~> and C<!~> operators. Regular expressions 
are / delimited (no other delimiter is accepted, \ inside regexp must be 
backslashed), the C<imsx> modifiers can be used.

$xp->findnodes( '//@att[.=~ /^v.$/]'); # returns the list of attributes att
                                         # whose value matches ^v.$
