NAME

Net::Dynect::REST - A REST implementation to communicate with Dynect

SYNOPSIS

use Net::Dynect::REST
my $dynect = Net::Dynect::REST->new();
$dynect->login(user_name => $user, customer_name => $customer, password => $password;

METHODS

Creating

Net::Dynect::REST->new()

This constructor will return an object, and can optionally attempt to establish a session if sufficient authentication details are passed as parameters. It takes the optional arguments of:

  • debug

    A numeric debug level, where 0 is silent, 1 is standard output, and higher gives more details.

  • server

  • protocol

  • base_path

  • port

  • user_name

  • customer_name

  • password

Methods

$dynect->login()

This will attempt to create a valid Session object by forming and sending a login request, and parsing the response. Parameters are:

  • user_name

  • customer_name

  • password

$dynect->logout()

If we have a valid session, then this will try and perform a logout against Dynect, and remove our sesssion object.

$dynect->execute()

This is the main heavy lifting; where Net::Dynect::REST::Request objects get sent to the server, and a Net::Dynect::REST::Response is returned, if all is OK. It takes one argument - the Net::Dynect::REST::Request object.

$dynect->session()

This is a Net::Dynect::REST::Session object, which should eb the current valid session for this Net::Dynect::REST object to use. It updates the web client to include the Auth-Token header for subsequent requests

Attributes

$dynect->server()

This is the server host name that we will send our requests to. Default is api2.dynect.net.

$dynect->protocol()

This is the protocol we will use, either http or https. Default is https.

$dynect->base_path()

This is the path that is used to find the services we will be accessing. Default is /REST/.

$dynect->port()

The TCP port that we will use. The default is to use whatever is apropriate for the protocol.

$dynect->base_uri()

A convenience method to put together the protocl, server, port and base_path attributes into a URI.
