NAME

HTTP::Tiny::Mech - Wrap a WWW::Mechanize instance in an HTTP::Tiny compatible interface.

VERSION

version 1.001002

SYNOPSIS

# Get something that expects an HTTP::Tiny instance
# to work with HTTP::Mechanize under the hood.
#
my $thing => ThingThatExpectsHTTPTiny->new(
  ua => HTTP::Tiny::Mech->new()
);

# Get something that expects HTTP::Tiny
# to work via WWW::Mechanize::Cached
#
my $thing => ThingThatExpectsHTTPTiny->new(
  ua => HTTP::Tiny::Mech->new(
    mechua => WWW::Mechanize::Cached->new( )
  );
);

DESCRIPTION

This code is somewhat poorly documented, and highly experimental.

Its the result of a quick bit of hacking to get MetaCPAN::API working faster via the WWW::Mechanize::Cached module ( and gaining cache persistence via CHI )

It works so far for this purpose.

At present, only "get" and "request" are implemented, and all other calls fall through to a native HTTP::Tiny.

ATTRIBUTES

mechua

This class provides one non-standard parameter not in HTTP::Tiny, mechua, which is normally an autovivified WWW::Mechanize instance.

You may override this parameter if you want to provide a custom instance of a WWW::Mechanize class.

WRAPPED METHODS

get

Interface should be the same as it is with "get" in HTTP::Tiny.

request

Interface should be the same as it is with "request" in HTTP::Tiny
