NAME Net::HTTP::Methods::patch::log_request - Patch module for Net::HTTP::Methods VERSION version 0.06 SYNOPSIS use Net::HTTP::Methods::patch::log_request; # now all your LWP HTTP requests are logged Sample script and output: % LOG_SHOW_CATEGORY=1 TRACE=1 perl -MLog::Any::App \ -MNet::HTTP::Methods::patch::log_request -MWWW::Mechanize \ -e'$mech=WWW::Mechanize->new; $mech->get("http://www.google.com/")' [cat Net.HTTP.Methods.patch.log_request][23] HTTP request (142 bytes): GET / HTTP/1.1 TE: deflate,gzip;q=0.3 Connection: TE, close Accept-Encoding: gzip Host: www.google.com User-Agent: WWW-Mechanize/1.71 [cat Net.HTTP.Methods.patch.log_request][70] HTTP request (144 bytes): GET / HTTP/1.1 TE: deflate,gzip;q=0.3 Connection: TE, close Accept-Encoding: gzip Host: www.google.co.id User-Agent: WWW-Mechanize/1.71 DESCRIPTION This module patches Net::HTTP::Methods so that raw LWP HTTP request is logged using Log::Any. If you look into LWP::Protocol::http's source code, you'll see that it is already doing that (albeit commented): my $req_buf = $socket->format_request($method, $fullpath, @h); #print "------\n$req_buf\n------\n"; FAQ Why not subclass? By patching, you do not need to replace all the client code which uses LWP (or WWW::Mechanize, etc).
