NAME

Exobrain::Agent::Foursquare - Roles for Exobrain Foursquare agents

VERSION

version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

use Moose;
with 'Exobrain::Agent::Foursquare'

DESCRIPTION

This role provides useful methods and attributes for agents wishing to integrate with Foursquare

METHODS

mech

my $mech = $self->mech;

Returns a WWW::Mechanize object. By default its stack depth is set to zero (which avoid memory leaks in long-running processes), and autocheck is on (so it will throw an exception on error).

Primarily used by "foursquare_api".

auth_token

my $token = $self->auth_token

Returns the auth_token, taken from the user's configuration.

Primarily used by "foursquare_api".

api_base

Returns the Foursquare API base path to use. By default this is https://api.foursquare.com/v2.

Primarily used by "foursquare_api".

foursquare_api

my $checkins = $self->foursquare_api('checkins/recent',
    afterTimestamp => $last_check,
);

Calls the Foursquare API endpoint specified in the first argument, and converts the response into a Perl data structure. All additional named arguments are considered to be parameters that will be appended to the call.

This method automatically adds auth tokens and version strings as appropriate.
