To install this module, run the following commands:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

After installation, run axk. Options are similar to awk. Input scripts are Perl 5.18 with functions to, e.g., run on any node matching a given XPath. See L1.md for more details. For example, the script

-L1
on { xpath(q<//item>) } run { say "$NOW: " . $E->getTagName };

or the equivalent command line

axk -e 'on { xpath(q<//item>) } run { say "$NOW: " . $E->getTagName }' t/ex/ex1.xml

will print the tag name of each //item node in the input, along with an indication ($NOW) of whether the action is being run when entering or leaving the node.

After installing, you can find documentation for this module with the perldoc command:

• perldoc XML::Axk::App for command-line usage instructions
• perldoc XML::Axk::L::L1 or L1.md for the language reference
