NAME
WWW::Curl::Simple - A Simpler interface to WWW::Curl
VERSION
version 0.100191
SYNOPSIS
my $curl = WWW::Curl::Simple->new(); my $res = $curl->get('http://www.google.com/');
ATTRIBUTES
timeout / timeout_ms Sets the timeout of individual requests, in seconds or milliseconds. max_redirects Sets the maximum number of redirects that should be transparently followed. Set this to 0 if you don't want to follow redirects. Default: 5. check_ssl_certs Specifies whether the underlying Curl library should check SSL certificates when making https requests. Defaults to 1 (i.e. do check certs, to err on safe side). ssl_cert_bundle Specifies the bundle to look for CA certificates in. Leave blank for system default, which should work if your libcurl is properly compiled. connection_timeout /connection_timeout_ms Sets the timeout of the connect phase of requests, in seconds or milliseconds. fatal Defaults to true, but if set to false, it will make failure in multi-requests warn instead of die.
METHODS
request($req) $req should be a HTTP::Request object. If you have a URI string or object, look at the "get" method instead. Returns a WWW::Curl::Simple::Request object. get($uri || URI) Accepts one parameter, which should be a reference to a URI object or a string representing a URI. Returns a HTTP::Response object. post($uri || URI, $form) Creates a HTTP::Request of type POST to $uri, which can be a string or a URI object, and sets the form of the request to $form. See HTTP::Request for more information on the format of $form. add_request($req) Adds $req (a HTTP::Request object) to the list of URLs to fetch. Returns a WWW::Curl::Simple::Request object. register($req) An alias for "add_request". has_request $request Will return true if $request is one of the object's requests. delete_request $req Removes $req from the object's list of requests. perform Does all the requests added with "add_request" and returns a list of WWW::Curl::Simple::Request objects. wait This method is here to provide an easier transition from LWP::Parallel::UserAgent. It is by no means a drop in replacement, but using "wait" instead of "perform" makes the return value more like that of LWP::UA.
