# REST::Consumer A general-purpose client for interacting with RESTful HTTP services ### Synopsis This module provides an interface that encapsulates building an http request, sending, and parsing responses. It also retries on failed requests and has configurable timeouts. ### Usage First configure the REST::Consumer class. This only needs to be done once per process and the results will be cached in a file. You can then refer to the service by name. REST::Consumer->configure('http://somewhere.com/consumer/config'); And / or: REST::Consumer->configure({ 'google-calendar' => { url => 'https://apps-apis.google.com', }, 'google-accounts' => { url => 'https://accounts.google.com', }, }); Then later: my $media = REST::Consumer->service('google-calendar')->get( path => '/users/me/calendarList', timeout => 5, retry => 5, ); use Data::Dumper; print Dumper($media);
