NAME

       IO::All::LWP - Extends IO::All to HTTP URLs

SYNOPSIS

           use IO::All;

           $content < io('http://example.org');             # GET webpage into scalar
           io('http://example.org') > io('index.html');     # GET to file
           "hello\n" > io('http://example.org/index.html'); # PUT webpage

           # two ways of getting a page with a password:
           $content < io('http://me:secret@example.org');
           $content < io('http://example.org')->user('me')->password('secret');

DESCRIPTION

       This module extends IO::All for dealing with HTTP URLs.  Note that you don't need to use
       it explicitly, as it is autoloaded by IO::All whenever it sees something that looks like
       an HTTP URL.

       The SYNOPSIS shows some simple typical examples, but there are many other interesting
       combinations with other IO::All features! For example, you can get an HTTP URL and write
       the content to a socket, or to an FTP URL, of to a DBM file.

METHODS

       This is a subclass of IO::All::LWP. The only new method is "http", which can be used to
       create a blank IO::All::HTTP object; or it can also take an HTTP URL as a parameter. Note
       that in most cases it is simpler just to call io('http://example.com'), which calls the
       "http" method automatically.

OPERATOR OVERLOADING

       The same operators from IO::All may be used. < GETs an HTTP URL; > PUTs to an HTTP URL.
