NAME

       RT::Client::REST::Attachment - attachment object representation.

VERSION

       version 0.60

SYNOPSIS

         my $attachments = $ticket->attachments;

         my $count = $attachments->count;
         print "There are $count attachments.\n";

         my $iterator = $attachments->get_iterator;
         while (my $att = &$iterator) {
             print "Id: ", $att->id, "; Subject: ", $att->subject, "\n";
         }

DESCRIPTION

       An attachment is a second-class citizen, as it does not exist (at least from the current
       REST protocol implementation) by itself.  At the moment, it is always associated with a
       ticket (see parent_id attribute).  Thus, you will rarely retrieve an attachment by itself;
       instead, you should use "attachments()" method of RT::Client::REST::Ticket object to get
       an iterator for all attachments for that ticket.

ATTRIBUTES

       id
         Numeric ID of the attachment.

       creator_id
         Numeric ID of the user who created the attachment.

       parent_id
         Numeric ID of the object the attachment is associated with.  This is not a proper
         attribute of the attachment as specified by REST -- it is simply to store the ID of the
         RT::Client::REST::Ticket object this attachment belongs to.

       subject
         Subject of the attachment.

       content_type
         Content type.

       file_name
         File name (if any).

       transaction_id
         Numeric ID of the RT::Client::REST::Transaction object this attachment is associated
         with.

       message_id
         Message ID.

       created
         Time when the attachment was created

       content
         Actual content of the attachment.

       headers
         Headers (not parsed), if any.

       parent
         Parent (not sure what this is yet).

       content_encoding
         Content encoding, if any.

METHODS

       RT::Client::REST::Attachment is a read-only object, so you cannot "store()" it.  Also,
       because it is a second-class citizen, you cannot "search()" or "count()" it -- use
       "attachments()" method provided by RT::Client::REST::Ticket.

       retrieve
         To retrieve an attachment, attributes id and parent_id must be set.

INTERNAL METHODS

       can
         Wraps the normal can() call, to exclude unsupported methods from parent.

       rt_type
         Returns 'attachment'.

CREATING ATTACHMENTS

       Currently RT does not allow creating attachments via their API.
