WebService::ZombiesRun - Access run information from the Zombies, Run! game

VERSION

version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
use WebService::ZombiesRun;
my $zombies = WebService::ZombiesRun->new( player => 'pjf' );
my $runs = $zombies->runs_raw;
foreach my $run (@$runs) {
   say "Ran $run->{distance} metres, burning $run->{energy} calories";
}
            
          

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a thin interface that crawls the Zombies, Run! website for your running stats.

As a thin interface, any method ending with _raw is simply returning the JSON as used internally by the Zombies, Run! website. These structures may change.

METHODS

runs_raw

            

              
              
my $runs = $zombies->runs_raw;
foreach my $run (@$runs) {
   say "Ran $run->{distance} metres, burning $run->{energy} calories";
}
            
          

Returns an array reference of run records. These are returned directly translated from the JSON provided by the underlying server.

total_runs

            

              
              
my $runs = $zombies->total_runs;
            
          

Returns the total runs completed by the player.

meta_raw

            

              
              
my $metadata  = $zombies->meta_raw;
            
          

Returns the contents of the 'meta' data in the manfiest. At the time of writing, this is returned as a hash in the following form, which is directly interpreted from the JSON returned by the server:

            

              
              
{
    'total_count' => 12,
    'offset'      => 0,
    'limit'       => 1000,
    'previous'    => undef,
    'next'        => undef
}
