HTTP::AnyUA provides a small wrapper for unifying the programming interfaces of
|
|
several different actual user agents (HTTP clients) under one familiar
|
|
interface.
|
|
|
|
Rather than providing yet another programming interface for you to learn,
|
|
HTTP::AnyUA follows the HTTP::Tiny interface. This also means that you can plug
|
|
in any supported HTTP client (LWP::UserAgent, Furl, etc.) and use it as if it
|
|
were HTTP::Tiny.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, many modules on CPAN are hardcoded to work with specific HTTP
|
|
clients, leaving the end user unable to use the HTTP client that would be best
|
|
for them. Although the end user won't -- or at least doesn't need to -- use
|
|
HTTP::AnyUA directly, they will benefit from client choice if their third-party
|
|
modules use HTTP::AnyUA or something like it.
|
|
|
|
The primary goal of HTTP::AnyUA is to make it easy for module developers to
|
|
write HTTP code once that can work with any HTTP client the end user may decide
|
|
to plug in. A secondary goal is to make it easy for anyone to add support for
|
|
new or yet-unsupported user agents.
