NAME
    XML::Generator::vCard::RDF - generate RDF/XML SAX2 events for vCard 3.0

SYNOPSIS
     use XML::SAX::Writer;
     use XML::Generator::vCard::RDF;

     my $writer = XML::SAX::Writer->new();
     my $driver = XML::Generator::vCard::RDF->new(Handler=>$writer);

     $driver->parse_files("test.vcf");

DESCRIPTION
    Generate RDF/XML SAX2 events for vCard 3.0

DOCUMENT FORMAT
    SAX2 events map to the *Representing vCard Objects in RDF/XML* W3C note:

     http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/NOTE-vcard-rdf-20010222/

    Additionally, an extra description will be added for each unique email
    address. Each description will be identified by the value of SHA1 digest
    of the address and simply point back to the vCard description.

    For example, the test file for this package contains the email address
    *senzala@example.com* which will cause the following description to be
    added to the final output :

     <rdf:RDF>
      <rdf:Description rdf:about = 't/Senzala.vcf'>
       <!-- vcard data here -->
      </rdf:Description>

      <!-- c0e0c54660f33a3ec7f22f902d0e5ead8bd4e4f4 == SHA1(senzala@example.com) -->

      <rdf:Description rdf:about='http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/mbox_sha1sum#c0e0c54660f33a3ec7f22f902d0e5ead8bd4e4f4'>
       <rdfs:seeAlso rdf:resource='t/Senzala.vcf' /></rdf:Description>
      </rdf:Description>
     </rdf:RDF>

    This is done to facilitate merging vCard data with RDF representations
    of email messages, using XML::Generator::RFC822::RDF. For example :

     <rdf:RDF>

      <rdf:Description rdf:about='x-urn:ietf:params:rfc822#5b0c8c9f9b2b782375f515a0b24b3a821a59a34a'>
       <rfc822:To rdf:resource='http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/mbox_sha1sum#c0e0c54660f33a3ec7f22f902d0e5ead8bd4e4f4' />
       <!-- ... -->
      </rdf:Description>

      <rdf:Description rdf:about='http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/mbox_sha1sum#c0e0c54660f33a3ec7f22f902d0e5ead8bd4e4f4'>
       <vCard:FN>Senzala Restaurant</vCard:FN>
       <vCard:EMAIL>senzala@example.com</vCard:EMAIL>
      </rdf:Description>

     </rdf:RDF>

PACKAGE METHODS
  __PACKAGE__->new(%args)
    This method inherits from *XML::SAX::Base*

OBJECT METHODS
OBJECT METHODS
  $pkg->parse_files(@files)
    Generate SAX2 events for one, or more, vCard files.

    Returns true or false.

  $pkg->parse_files(@files)
PRIVATE METHODS
    Private methods are documented below in case you need to subclass this
    package to tweak its output.

  $obj->_render_doc(\@vcards)
  $obj->_render_card(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_fn(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_n(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_nickname(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_photo(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_bday(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_adrs(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_labels(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_tels(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_emails(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_instantmessaging(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_mailer(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_tz(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_geo(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_org(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_title(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_role(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_logo(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_categories(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_note(Text::vCard)
  $self->_render_sound(Text::vCard)
  $self->_render_url(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_key(Text::vCard)
  $obj->_render_custom(Text::vCard)
    By default this method does nothing. It is here to be subclassed.

  $obj->_im_services()
    Returns a hash ref mapping an instant messaging service type to an XML
    element. Default is :

     {"aim"    => "foaf:aimChatID",
      "yahoo"  => "foaf:yahooChatID",
      "msn"    => "foaf:msnChatID",
      "jabber" => "foaf:JabberID",
      "icq"    => "foaf:icqChatId"}

    This is called by the *_render_instantmessaging* method.

BUGS
    vCards containg binary PHOTO images may cause Perl to segfault on Mac
    OSX and come flavours of Linux (but not FreeBSD.) The source of this
    problem has been traced, I think, to a regular expression issue in the
    Perl Text::ParseWords library. A bug report has been filed.
