DESCRIPTION

This distribution provides an easy interface to the Pocket API. It allows you to add, view and modify your list of items in a very simple way.

METHODS

new

The constructor accepts a username and password and validates your credentials with the Pocket API:

my $p = WebService::Pocket->new(
    username => 'throughnothing',
    password => 'myS3cr3t',
);

add

Allows you to add items to your Pocket list. You can add a single item via a simple HashRef:

my ( $new_item ) = $p->add( { url => 'http://youtube.com/video' } );

Or multiple items via an ArrayRef:

my $new_items = $p->add([
    { url => 'http://youtube.com/video', title => 'video 1' },
    { url => 'http://youtube.com/video2', title => 'video 2' },
]);

Note that only the url field is required for each added item, but you can set the title as well if you like. The add function will always return an ArrayRef of WebService::Pocket::Item objects if it succeeded.

list

Allows you to retrieve the list of items in your Pocket account. Returns a list of WebService::Pocket::Item objects.

my $items = $p->list;

You can pass in any parameters available to the Pocket API Get request.

# Get only read items, with tags
$p->list( state = 0, tags => 1 );

# Get only the first 5 resutls
$p->list( count => 5, page => 1 );

stats

Stats will return a WebService::Pocket::Stats object, which contains a few statistics about your Pocket account.

# Get the stats object
my $stats = $p->stats;

# How long i've been a user
say $stats->user_since;

# How many items in my list total
say $stats->count_list;

# How many unread items in my list
say $stats->count_unread;

# How many read items in my list
say $stats->count_read;
