IO::All::HTTP(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation					IO::All::HTTP(3pm)

NAME
IO::All::LWP - Extends IO::All to HTTP URLs SYNOPSIS
use IO::All; $content < io('http://example.org'); # GET webpage into scalar io('http://example.org') > io('index.html'); # GET to file "hello " > io('http://example.org/index.html'); # PUT webpage # two ways of getting a page with a password: $content < io('http://me:secret@example.org'); $content < io('http://example.org')->user('me')->password('secret'); DESCRIPTION
This module extends IO::All for dealing with HTTP URLs. Note that you don't need to use it explicitly, as it is autoloaded by IO::All whenever it sees something that looks like an HTTP URL. The SYNOPSIS shows some simple typical examples, but there are many other interesting combinations with other IO::All features! For example, you can get an HTTP URL and write the content to a socket, or to an FTP URL, of to a DBM file. METHODS
This is a subclass of IO::All::LWP. The only new method is "http", which can be used to create a blank IO::All::HTTP object; or it can also take an HTTP URL as a parameter. Note that in most cases it is simpler just to call io('http://example.com'), which calls the "http" method automatically. OPERATOR OVERLOADING
The same operators from IO::All may be used. < GETs an HTTP URL; > PUTs to an HTTP URL. SEE ALSO
IO::All, IO::All::LWP, LWP. AUTHORS
