NAME

ASP4::API - Your ASP4 Web App's Public API

SYNOPSIS

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use warnings 'all';
use ASP4::API;

my $api; BEGIN { $api = ASP4::API->new }

# Now you can use your other classes:
use My::User;
use My::Product;
use My::Foo;

# Use the API:

my $res = $api->ua->get('/index.asp');
if( $res->is_success ) {
  print $res->content;
}

# Access your test data:
warn $res->test_data->contact_form->email;

# Access your properties YAML:
warn $res->properties->contact_form->email->is_missing;

# Access the application config:
warn $api->config->system->settings->foo;

use warnings 'all';
use Test::More 'no_plan';

use ASP4::API;

ok(
  my $api = ASP4::API->new, "Got api"
);
is(
  $api->ua->get('/hello.asp')->content => 'Hello World!',
  'Website is friendly'
);
