NAME Net::HTTP::Spore - SPORE client VERSION version 0.04 SYNOPSIS my $client = Net::HTTP::Spore->new_from_spec('twitter.json'); # for identica my $client = Net::HTTP::Spore->new_from_spec('twitter.json', base_url => 'http://identi.ca/com/api'); $client->enable('Format::JSON'); my $timeline = $client->public_timeline(format => 'json'); my $tweets = $timeline->body; foreach my $tweet (@$tweets) { print $tweet->{user}->{screen_name}. " says ".$tweet->{text}."\n"; } my $friends_timeline = $client->friends_timeline(format => 'json'); DESCRIPTION This module is an implementation of the SPORE specification. To use this client, you need to use or to write a SPORE specification of an API. A description of the SPORE specification format is available at Some specifications for well-known services are available . CLIENT CREATION First you need to create a client. This can be done using two methods, new_from_spec and new_from_string. The client will read the specification file to create a appropriate methods to interact with the API. MIDDLEWARES It's possible to activate some middlewares to extend the usage of the client. If you're using an API that discuss in JSON, you can enable the middleware Net::HTTP::Spore::Middleware::JSON. $client->enable('Format::JSON'); or only on some path $client->enable_if(sub{$_->[0]->path =~ m!/path/to/json/stuff!}, 'Format::JSON'); METHODS new_from_spec($specification_file, %args) Create and return a Net::HTTP::Spore::Core object, with methods generated from the specification file. The specification file can either be a file on disk or a remote URL. new_from_string($specification_string, %args) Create and return a Net::HTTP::Spore::Core object, with methods generated from the specification string. TRACING Net::HTTP::Spore provides a way to trace what's going on when doing a request. Enabling Trace You can enable tracing using the environment variable SPORE_TRACE. You can also enable tracing at construct time by adding trace =E- when calling new_from_spec. Trace Output By default output will be directed to STDERR. You can specify another default output: SPORE_TRACE=1=log.txt or ->new_from_spec('spec.json', trace => '1=log.txt'); AUTHOR franck cuny COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2010 by linkfluence.
