NAME

URI::tdb - the tdb URI scheme

SYNOPSIS

my $uri = URI->new('tdb:2012:http://tobyinkster.co.uk/');
say $uri->embedded_uri;

DESCRIPTION

The dated URI scheme is defined in an Internet Draft http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-masinter-dated-uri-10. Dated URIs include a date and an embedded URI. They identify the same resource that was identified by the embedded URI at the given date.

tdb URIs take a slightly different approach, identifying the "thing described by" the resource. In the example given in the SYNOPSIS, the tdb URI doesn't identify a web page; it identifies a person.

This module brings support for the tdb URI scheme to the URI framework.

This module provides an exactly identical interface to URI::duri with the exception of differences described in the "Differences from URI::duri" section below.

Differences from URI::duri

None.
