NAME

Firefox::Application::API35 - API wrapper for Firefox 3.5+

SYNOPSIS

use Firefox::Application;
my $ff = Firefox::Application->new(
    # Force the Firefox 4 API
    api => 'Firefox::Application::API40',
);

METHODS

$api->updateitems( %args )

for my $item ($api->updateitems) {
    print sprintf "Name: %s\n", $item->{name};
    print sprintf "Version: %s\n", $item->{version};
    print sprintf "GUID: %s\n", $item->{id};
};

Returns the list of updateable items. Under Firefox 4, can be restricted by the type option.

  • type - type of items to fetch

    ANY - fetch any item

    ADDON - fetch extensions

    LOCALE - fetch locales

    THEME - fetch themes

This method is asynchronous in Firefox 4, but is run synchronously by Firefox::Application, polling every 0.1s. Currently, no special support for AnyEvent is implemented.

$ff->addons( %args )

for my $addon ($ff->addons) {
    print sprintf "Name: %s\n", $addon->{name};
    print sprintf "Version: %s\n", $addon->{version};
    print sprintf "GUID: %s\n", $addon->{id};
};

Returns the list of installed addons as Addons. See <https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Addons/Add-on_Manager/Addon> depending.

$ff->addTab( %options )

my $new = $ff->addTab();

Creates a new tab and returns it. The tab will be automatically closed upon program exit.

The Firefox 4 API is asynchronous. The method is forced into a synchronous call here.

$ff->selectedTab( %options )

my $curr = $ff->selectedTab();

Sets the currently active tab.
