NAME¶
Data::ICal::Property - Represents a property on an entry in an iCalendar file
DESCRIPTION¶
A Data::ICal::Property object represents a single property on an entry in an iCalendar file. Properties have parameters in addition to their value.
You shouldn't need to create Data::ICal::Property values directly -- just use "add_property" in Data::ICal::Entry.
The "encoding" parameter value is only interpreted by Data::ICal in the "decoded_value" and "encode" methods: all other methods access the encoded version directly (if there is an encoding).
Currently, the only supported encoding is "QUOTED-PRINTABLE".
METHODS¶
new $key, $value, [$parameter_hash]¶
Creates a new Data::ICal::Property with key $key and value $value.
If $parameter_hash is provided, sets the property's parameters to it. The parameter hash should have keys equal to the names of the parameters (case insensitive; parameter hashes should not contain two different keys which are the same when converted to upper case); the values should either be a string if the parameter has a single value or an array reference of strings if the parameter has multiple values.
key [$key]¶
Gets or sets the key name of this property.
value [$value]¶
Gets or sets the value of this property.
parameters [$param_hash]¶
Gets or sets the parameter hash reference of this property. Parameter keys are converted to upper case.
vcal10 [$bool]¶
Gets or sets a boolean saying whether this should be interpreted as vCalendar 1.0 (as opposed to iCalendar 2.0). Generally, you can just set this on your main Data::ICal object when you construct it; "add_entry" automatically makes sure that sub-entries end up with the same value as their parents, and "add_property" makes sure that properties end up with the same value as their entry.
decoded_value¶
Gets the value of this property, converted from the encoding specified in its encoding parameter. (That is, "value" will return the encoded version; this will apply the encoding.) If the encoding is not specified or recognized, just returns the raw value.
encode $encoding¶
Calls "decoded_value" to get the current decoded value, then encodes it in $encoding, sets the value to that, and sets the encoding parameter to $encoding. ($encoding is first converted to upper case.)
If $encoding is undef, deletes the encoding parameter and sets the value to the decoded value. Does nothing if the encoding is not recognized.
as_string ARGS¶
Returns the property formatted as a string (including trailing newline).
Takes named arguments:
