HTTP::Simple is a wrapper of HTTP::Tiny that provides simplified functions for
|
|
performing HTTP requests in a similar manner to LWP::Simple, but with slightly
|
|
more useful error handling. For full control of the request process and response
|
|
handling, use HTTP::Tiny directly.
|
|
|
|
IO::Socket::SSL is required for HTTPS requests with HTTP::Tiny.
|
|
|
|
Request methods that return the body content of the response will return a byte
|
|
string suitable for directly printing, but that may need to be decoded for text
|
|
operations.
|
|
|
|
The HTTP::Tiny object used by these functions to make requests can be accessed
|
|
as $HTTP::Simple::UA (for example, to configure the timeout, or replace it with
|
|
a compatible object like HTTP::Tinyish).
|
|
|
|
The JSON encoder used by the JSON functions defaults to a JSON::PP instance, and
|
|
can be accessed as $HTTP::Simple::JSON.
