NAME
Net::Dopplr - interface with Dopplr.com's web service
SYNOPSIS
my $dopplr = Net::Dopplr->new($token);
my $fellows = $dopplr->fellows('muttley');
print "I share my trips with ".scalar(@{$fellows->{show_trips_to}})." people\n";
print "I can see ".scalar(@{$fellows->{can_see_trips_of}})." people's trips\n";
GETTING A DEVELOPER TOKEN
This is a bit involved because Dopplr is still in beta.
First visit this URL
https://www.dopplr.com/api/AuthSubRequest?next=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com%2Fdopplrapi&scope=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dopplr.com%2F&session=1
(Or you can replace next with you own web app). That will give you a developer token.
You can then upgrade this to a permanent session token using the dopplr
utility shipped with this module or code similar to this
use strict;
use Net::Google::AuthSub;
my $token = shift;
my $auth = Net::Google::AuthSub->new( url => 'https://www.dopplr.com/api');
$auth->auth('null', $token);
my $sess = $auth->session_token() || die "Couldn't get token: $@";
print "Session token = $sess\n";
and then later
my $dopplr = Net::Dopplr->new($sess);
You can then use the session token from that point forward.

If there's any method I haven't implemented yet then you can simply provide the name of the method, the options as a hash ref and, optionally, whether it should be a POST request or not. So, for a theoretical new method called throw_penguin
which throws a penguin at a traveller and is called as a POST
$dopplr->call('throw_penguin', { traveller_id => $id }, 1);
and for get_penguins
which finds how many penguins have been thrown at a traveller and is called as a GET
use Data::Dumper;
my $data = $dopplr->call('get_penguins', { traveller_id => $id });
print Dumper($data);
