XBRL version 0.02 ================= XBRL is an object oriented Perl module for reading XBRL instance documents. It seeks to both convert those documents into other formats (e.g. HTML) and make the contents of the XBRL instance generally available to other users without the need to completely understand the XBRL format. Because the XBRL standard is large and complex, the module currently implements only a subset of its features. The plan is to accrete functionality over subsequent releases until a complete and standards compliant implementation is achieved. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install DEPENDENCIES This module requires these other modules and libraries: Date::Manip Carp XML::LibXML LWP::UserAgent File::Spec File::Temp Class::Accessor HTML::Table Exporter XML::LibXML is a Perl interface to the Gnome project's libxml library and consequently requires libxml to be installed. USAGE use XBRL; my $xbrl_doc = XBRL->new( {file=>"foo.xml", schema_dir="/var/cache/xbrl"}); my $html_report = $doc->get_html_report(); COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE Copyright (C) 2012 by Mark Gannon This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself, either Perl version 5.10 or, at your option, any later version of Perl 5 you may have available.
