NAME

pod2html - convert .pod files to .html files

SYNOPSIS

pod2html --help --htmldir=<name> --htmlroot=<URL>
         --infile=<name> --outfile=<name>
         --podpath=<name>:...:<name> --podroot=<name>
         --cachedir=<name> --flush --recurse --norecurse
         --quiet --noquiet --verbose --noverbose
         --index --noindex --backlink --nobacklink
         --header --noheader --poderrors --nopoderrors
         --css=<URL> --title=<name>

DESCRIPTION

Converts files from pod format (see perlpod) to HTML format.

ARGUMENTS

pod2html takes the following arguments:

• help

  --help
  

  Displays the usage message.

• htmldir

  --htmldir=name
  

  Sets the directory to which all cross references in the resulting HTML file will be relative. Not passing this causes all links to be absolute since this is the value that tells Pod::Html the root of the documentation tree.

  Do not use this and --htmlroot in the same call to pod2html; they are mutually exclusive.

• htmlroot

  --htmlroot=URL
  

  Sets the base URL for the HTML files. When cross-references are made, the HTML root is prepended to the URL.

  Do not use this if relative links are desired: use --htmldir instead.

  Do not pass both this and --htmldir to pod2html; they are mutually exclusive.

• infile

  --infile=name
  

  Specify the pod file to convert. Input is taken from STDIN if no infile is specified.

• outfile

  --outfile=name
  

  Specify the HTML file to create. Output goes to STDOUT if no outfile is specified.

• podroot

  --podroot=name
  

  Specify the base directory for finding library pods.

• podpath

  --podpath=name:...:name
  

  Specify which subdirectories of the podroot contain pod files whose HTML converted forms can be linked-to in cross-references.

• cachedir

  --cachedir=name
  

  Specify which directory is used for storing cache. Default directory is the current working directory.

• flush

  --flush
  

  Flush the cache.

• backlink

  --backlink
  

  Turn =head1 directives into links pointing to the top of the HTML file.

• nobacklink

  --nobacklink
  

  Do not turn =head1 directives into links pointing to the top of the HTML file (default behaviour).

• header

  --header
  

  Create header and footer blocks containing the text of the "NAME" section.

• noheader

  --noheader
  

  Do not create header and footer blocks containing the text of the "NAME" section (default behaviour).

• poderrors

  --poderrors
  

  Include a "POD ERRORS" section in the outfile if there were any POD errors in the infile (default behaviour).

• nopoderrors

  --nopoderrors
  

  Do not include a "POD ERRORS" section in the outfile if there were any POD errors in the infile.

• index

  --index
  

  Generate an index at the top of the HTML file (default behaviour).

• noindex

  --noindex
  

  Do not generate an index at the top of the HTML file.

• recurse

  --recurse
  

  Recurse into subdirectories specified in podpath (default behaviour).

• norecurse

  --norecurse
  

  Do not recurse into subdirectories specified in podpath.

• css

  --css=URL
  

  Specify the URL of cascading style sheet to link from resulting HTML file. Default is none style sheet.

• title

  --title=title
  

  Specify the title of the resulting HTML file.

• quiet

  --quiet
  

  Don't display mostly harmless warning messages.

• noquiet

  --noquiet
  

  Display mostly harmless warning messages (default behaviour). But this is not the same as "verbose" mode.

• verbose

  --verbose
  

  Display progress messages.

• noverbose

  --noverbose
  

  Do not display progress messages (default behaviour).
