NAME

UserAgent::Any::Response – Response object for UserAgent::Any

SYNOPSIS

my $response = $any_ua->get($url);

if ($response->success) {
  print $response->content."\n";
} else {
  print $response->status_code." ".$response->status_text."\n";
}

DESCRIPTION

UserAgent::Any::Response is a read-only object containing the response from a call made by UserAgent::Any.

Constructor

my $res = UserAgent::Any::Response->new($underlying_response);

Builds a new UserAgent::Any::Response object wrapping the given underlying response. Currently supported wrapped objects are HTTP::Response, Mojo::Message::Response and HTTP::Promise::Response. Feel free to ask for or contribute new implementations.

Methods

status_code

my $code = $res->status_code;

Returns the 3 digit numerical status code of the HTTP Response.

status_text

my $text = $res->status_text;

Returns the response status message attribute explaining the response code.

success

my $bool = $res->success;

Returns whether the request was successful (which typically means that the status code is in the 200 .. 299 range).

content

my $bytes = $res->content;

Returns the decoded response content according to the Content-Encoding header and, for text content (as per the Content-Type header) attempt to decode the text into a Perl unicode string.

Note that this is often called decoded_content in other response objects. But, as this is what you should always use, we settled here on the simpler name.

decoded_content

my $text = $res->decoded_content;

Returns the raw response content. This should be treated as a string of bytes.

Note that this is often called content in other response objects. But in general you don’t want to use that field unless you are doing low-level manipulations.

headers

my %headers = $res->headers;
my @headers_key_value_list = $res->headers;

Returns all headers of the response. Note that this actually returns a list of alternating keys and values and that a given key can appear more than once if a given header appears more than once in the response.

my $header = $res->header($string);
my @headers = $res->header($string);

Returns the value of the given header. if the header appears multiple times in the response then returns the concatenated values (separated by ,) in scalar context or all the values in list content.

res

my $obj = $res->res;

Returns the underlying response object being wrapped.
