=head1 NAME

Apache::AxKit::Provider::File::Formatter - An AxKit Provider that can
use any Formatter API module

=head1 SYNOPSIS

In your Apache config, you can configure this Provider like this example:


        PerlHandler AxKit
	AxAddProcessor text/xsl /transforms/xhtml2html.xsl
        AxContentProvider Apache::AxKit::Provider::File::Formatter
	PerlSetVar FormatterModule Formatter::HTML::HTML


=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is an AxKit Provider that may be used to apply any module that
conforms with the Formatter API (v0.93) to a file. At the time of this
writing, there are three modules in the C namespace, one
that can clean existing HTML using L, one for formatting
the L syntax, and one to add minimal HTML markup to a
preformatted plain text.

The Provider can be configured like any other Provider, to apply to a
directory, a file ending, etc. The only thing that is special about it
is that it needs a C variable to tell it which module
will do the actual formatting. It can be set like in the example in
the SYNOPSIS.

Make sure you have the module you specify installed, otherwise an
error will result. Also, you may need to copy a supplied XSLT
stylesheet to an appropriate location from the C
directory. For example, if you would like to output HTML like in the
above example, you need the C stylesheet.

other Providers may also be of interest:

=head1 TODO

It should, in principle, be possible to use a chain of Formatter
modules to process a file in stages. This could be an interesting
exercise for the future, but then there are also many other pipeline
based paradigms that me be better suited.
