DESCRIPTION
XML::Atom::Syndication::Feed element is the document (i.e., top-level) element of an Atom
Feed Document, acting as a container for metadata and data associated with the feed. Its
element children consist of metadata elements followed by zero or more entry child
elements.
METHODS
XML::Atom::Syndication::Feed is a subclass of XML::Atom::Syndication::Object (via
XML::Atom::Syndication:::Thing) that it inherits numerous methods from. You should already
be familiar with this base class before proceeding.
Class->new(%params)
In addition to the keys recognized by its superclass (XML::Atom::Syndication::Object)
this class recognizes a "Stream" element. The value of this element can be a SCALAR or
FILEHANDLE (GLOB) to a valid Atom document. The "Stream" element takes precedence over
the standard "Elem" element.
inner_atom($atom_markup_string)
This is a convenience method for quickly setting the child Atom elements of the feed
with a string. The string must also be well-formed XML. This method will replaces any
existing child elements. All elements are presumed to be in the same Atom namespace
as the feed object.
This method is similar to the innerHTML property found in JavaScript.
author
Indicates the author of the feed.
This accessor returns a XML::Atom::Syndication::Person object. This element can be set

category

This accessor returns a XML::Atom::Syndication::Category object. This element can be

generator
