    },
)->wait;

DESCRIPTION

Use AnyEvent::Net::Curl::Queued with fewer keystrokes. Also, the easy things should be easy side of the package. For the hard things should be possible side, refer to the complete AnyEvent::Net::Curl::Queued documentation.

USAGE

The example in "SYNOPSIS" is equivalent to:

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use common::sense;

use AnyEvent::Net::Curl::Queued;
use AnyEvent::Net::Curl::Queued::Easy;

my $q = AnyEvent::Net::Curl::Queued->new;
$q->append(sub {
    AnyEvent::Net::Curl::Queued::Easy->new({
        initial_url => $_,
        on_finish   => sub {
            say $_[0]->final_url;
            say ${$_[0]->header};
        },
    })
}) for qw(
    http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-category/02_Language_Extensions/
    http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-category/02_Perl_Core_Modules/
    http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-category/03_Development_Support/
    ...
    http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-category/27_Pragma/
    http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-category/28_Perl6/
    http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-category/99_Not_In_Modulelist/
);
$q->wait;

As you see, YADA overloads append/prepend from AnyEvent::Net::Curl::Queued, adding implicit constructor for the worker object. It also makes both methods return a reference to the queue object, so (almost) everything gets chainable. The implicit constructor is triggered only when append/prepend receives multiple arguments. The order of arguments (mostly) doesn't matter. Their meaning is induced by their reference type:

Beware!

YADA tries to follow the principle of least astonishment, at least when you play nicely. All the following snippets have the same meaning:

$q->append(
    { retry => 3 },
    'http://www.cpan.org',
    'http://metacpan.org',
    sub { $_[0]->setopt(verbose => 1) }, # on_init placeholder
    \&on_finish,
);

$q->append(
    [qw[
        http://www.cpan.org
        http://metacpan.org
    ]],
    { retry => 3, opts => { verbose => 1 } },
    \&on_finish,
);

$q->append(
    URI->new($_) => \&on_finish,
    { retry => 3, opts => { verbose => 1 } },
) for qw[
    http://www.cpan.org
    http://metacpan.org
];

$q->append(
    [qw[
        http://www.cpan.org
        http://metacpan.org
    ]] => {
        retry       => 3,
        opts        => { verbose => 1 },
        on_finish   => \&on_finish,
    }
);

However, you will be astonished if you specify multiple distinct on_init and on_finish or try to sneak in initial_url through attributes! At least, RTFC if you seriously attempt to do that.
