NAME
WWW::Pusher::Client - Laughably incomplete Perl client for Pusher WS API
VERSION
version 0.03
SYNOPSIS
Pusher is a hosted API for the websocket protocol. WWW::Pusher::Client is a laughably incomplete Perl client for their interface. It's really only suited for joining one channel in its lifetime - trigger
uses only the most recent channel as defaults.
use WWW::Pusher::Client;
my $pusher = WWW::Pusher::Client->new(
auth_key => $ENV{AUTH_KEY},
secret => $ENV{SECRET},
channel => 'private-channel'
);
use JSON;
$pusher->trigger('my_event', 'this is some data that isn\'t JSON');
$pusher->trigger('my_event', to_json({
json => 'json also works!'
});
The main difference between this module and WWW::Pusher is that this module enables you to subscribe to channels like the WebSocket Pusher clients allow you to do. WWW::Pusher interacts with Pusher via its HTTP API, which doesn't allow for subscriptions. On the other hand, this module uses "AnyEvent::WebSocket::Client" to join channels via websockets and receive real time messages in addition to triggering them.
METHODS
new
Get a client to interact with the Pusher API. You can optionally pass in a channel to subscribe to it after the initial connection, or subscribe manually later on your own.
use WWW::Pusher::Client;
my $pusher = WWW::Pusher::Client->new(
auth_key => $ENV{AUTH_KEY}, // required
secret => $ENV{SECRET}, // required
channel => 'default-channel' // optional
);
subscribe
Subscribe to a Pusher channel; currently supporting public and private channels, but not presence channels. The authentication for private channels is automatically handled for you if your channel name is prefixed with 'private-'.
$pusher->subscribe('pubs-are-easy-to-join');
$pusher->subscribe('private-channels-are-supported');
trigger
Trigger an event & message on the currently subscribed channel.
$pusher->trigger('my_event', 'this is the message!');
