NAME

Net::EPP::Frame::ObjectSpec - metadata about EPP object types

SYNOPSIS

use Net::EPP::Frame;
use strict;

# create an EPP frame:
my $check = Net::EPP::Frame::Command::Check->new;

# get the spec:
my @spec = Net::EPP::Frame::ObjectSpec->spec('domain');

# create an object:
my $domain = $check->addObject(@spec);

# set the attributes:
my $name = $check->createElement('domain:name');
$name->addText('example.tld');

# assemble the frame:
$domain->appendChild($name);
$check->getCommandNode->appendChild($domain);

print $check->toString;

DESCRIPTION

Net::EPP::Frame::ObjectSpec is a simple module designed to provide easy access to metadata for the object types defined in the EPP specification.

USAGE

my @spec = Net::EPP::Frame::ObjectSpec->spec($type);

This function returns an array containing metadata for the given object type. If no metadata is registered then the function returns undef.

The array contains three members:

@spec = (
	$type,
	$xmlns,
	$schemaLocation,
);

$type is the same as the supplied argument, and the other two members correspond to the XML attributes used to specify the object in an EPP <command> or <response> frame.

The objects currently registered are:

  • domain, for domain names;

  • host, for DNS server hosts;

  • contact, for contact objects;

  • secDNS, for DNSSEC information;

  • rgp, for registry grace periods.

Note that secDNS and rgp refer to extensions to the domain object rather than objects in their own right.
