NAME

WWW::IRail::API::Connections - HTTP::Request builder and HTTP::Response parser for the IRail API (Train)Connection data

SYNOPSIS

make_request( from => 'brussel noord', to => 'oostende' );

DESCRIPTION

This module builds a HTTP::Request and has a parser for the HTTP::Response. It's up to you to transmit it over the wire. If don't want to do that yourself, don't use this module directly and use WWW::IRail::API instead.

METHODS

make_request( key = 'val'> | { key = 'val' }> )

from and to are the only arguments required, all time and date arguments default to the current time and date on the iRail API side.

make_request (
    from    => 'oostende',
    to      => 'brussel noord',
    date    => '2010-11-28' || '20101128' || 'tomorrow afternoon',   
    time    => '6:24' || 1290922133,        
);

parse_response( $http_response, dataType )
