# returns a Data::Stream::Bulk object
# as it may have to make multiple HTTP requests

    # also size, etag, content_type, last_modified

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a simple interface to the Mosso CloudFiles service. It is "Scalable, dynamic storage. Use as much or little as you want and only pay for what you use". Find out more at http://cloud.rackspace.com/cloudfiles.jsp.

This is the first version of this module. The API will probably change and lots of documentation will be added.

TESTING

Testing CloudFiles is a tricky thing. Mosso charges you a bit of money each time you use their service. And yes, testing counts as using. Because of this, this modules's test suite skips testing unless you set the following three environment variables, along the lines of:

CLOUDFILES_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=1 CLOUDFILES_USER=username CLOUDFILES_KEY=15bf43... perl t/simple.t

CLOUDFILES_EXPENSIVE_TESTS

Set this to 1.

CLOUDFILES_USER

CLOUDFILES_KEY
