Padre::Task::LWP(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Padre::Task::LWP(3)NAMEPadre::Task::LWP - Generic HTTP client background processing task
SYNOPSIS
# Fire and forget HTTP request
Padre::Task::LWP->new(
request => HTTP::Request->new(
GET => 'http://perlide.org',
),
)->schedule;
DESCRIPTION
Sending and receiving data via HTTP.
METHODS
new
my $task = Padre::Task::LWP->new(
method => 'GET',
url => 'http://perlide.org',
);
The "new" constructor creates a Padre::Task for a background HTTP
request.
It takes a single addition parameter "request" which is a fully-
prepared HTTP::Request object for the request.
Returns a new Padre::Task::LWP object, or throws an exception on error.
request
The "request" method returns the HTTP::Request object that was provided
to the constructor.
response
Before the "run" method has been fired the "response" method returns
"undef".
After the "run" method has been fired the "response" method returns the
HTTP::Response object for the LWP::UserAgent request.
Typically, you would use this in the "finish" method for the task, if
you wish to take any further actions in Padre based on the result of
the HTTP call.
SEE ALSO
This class inherits from "Padre::Task" and its instances can be
scheduled using "Padre::TaskManager".
The transfer of the objects to and from the worker threads is
implemented with Storable.
