NAME Perinci::Access::HTTP::Client - Riap::HTTP client VERSION version 0.16 SYNOPSIS use Perinci::Access::HTTP::Client; my $pa = Perinci::Access::HTTP::Client->new; ## perform Riap requests # list all functions in package my $res = $pa->request(list => 'http://localhost:5000/api/', {uri=>'/Some/Module/', type=>'function'}); # -> [200, "OK", ['/Some/Module/mult2', '/Some/Module/mult2']] # call function $res = $pa->request(call => 'http://localhost:5000/api/', {uri=>'/Some/Module/mult2', args=>{a=>2, b=>3}}); # -> [200, "OK", 6] # get function metadata $res = $pa->request(meta => 'http://localhost:5000/api/', {uri=>'/Foo/Bar/multn'}); # -> [200, "OK", {v=>1.1, summary=>'Multiple many numbers', ...}] # pass HTTP credentials my $pa = Perinci::Access::HTTP::Client->new(user => 'admin', password=>'123'); my $res = $pa->request(call => '...', {...}); # -> [200, "OK", 'result'] ## parse server URL $res = $pa->parse_url("https://cpanlists.org/api/"); # {proto=>"https", path=>"/App/cpanlists/Server/"} DESCRIPTION This class implements Riap::HTTP client. This class uses Log::Any for logging. ATTRIBUTES * realm => STR For HTTP basic authentication. Defaults to "restricted area" (this is the default realm used by Plack::Middleware::Auth::Basic). * user => STR For HTTP basic authentication. Default will be taken from environment "PERINCI_HTTP_USER". * password => STR For HTTP basic authentication. Default will be taken from environment "PERINCI_HTTP_PASSWORD". METHODS PKG->new(%attrs) => OBJ Instantiate object. Known attributes: * retries => INT (default 2) Number of retries to do on network failure. Setting it to 0 will disable retries. * retry_delay => INT (default 3) Number of seconds to wait between retries. * log_level => INT (default 0 or from environment) Will be fed into Riap request key 'loglevel' (if >0). Note that some servers might forbid setting log level. If TRACE environment variable is true, default log_level will be set to 6. If DEBUG, 5. If VERBOSE, 4. If quiet, 1. Else 0. * log_callback => CODE Pass log messages from the server to this subroutine. If not specified, log messages will be "rethrown" into Log::Any logging methods (e.g. $log->warn(), $log->debug(), etc). $pa->request($action => $server_url, \%extra_keys) => $res Send Riap request to $server_url. Note that $server_url is the HTTP URL of Riap server. You will need to specify code entity URI via "uri" key in %extra_keys. %extra_keys is optional and contains additional Riap request keys (except "action", which is taken from $action). $pa->parse_url($server_url) => HASH ENVIRONMENT "PERINCI_HTTP_USER". "PERINCI_HTTP_PASSWORD". FAQ How do I connect to a HTTP server that listens on a Unix socket? This class can switch to using LWP::Protocol::http::SocketUnixAlt when it detects that the server is on a Unix socket, using this syntax (notice the single instead of double slash after "http:"): http:/path/to/unix.sock//uri How do I connect to an HTTPS server without a "real" SSL certificate? Since this module is using LWP, you can set environment variable "PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME" to 0. See LWP for more details.
