An API is basically a code library, written in some language like C and then presented as some kind of an object for other compiled languages to use.
bash is not a compiled language. You will have to write some kind of wrapper in C or java or whatever the api is meant to interface with.

xml::atom::client
XML::Atom::Client(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML::Atom::Client(3pm)
NAME
XML::Atom::Client - A client for the Atom API
SYNOPSIS
use XML::Atom::Client;
use XML::Atom::Entry;
my $api = XML::Atom::Client->new;
$api->username('Melody');
$api->password('Nelson');
my $entry = XML::Atom::Entry->new;
$entry->title('New Post');
$entry->content('Content of my post.');
my $EditURI = $api->createEntry($PostURI, $entry);
my $feed = $api->getFeed($FeedURI);
my @entries = $feed->entries;
my $entry = $api->getEntry($EditURI);
DESCRIPTION
XML::Atom::Client implements a client for the Atom API described at http://bitworking.org/projects/atom/draft-gregorio-09.html, with the
authentication scheme described at http://www.intertwingly.net/wiki/pie/DifferentlyAbledClients.
NOTE: the API, and particularly the authentication scheme, are still in flux.
USAGE
XML::Atom::Client->new(%param)
$api->use_soap([ 0 | 1 ])
XML::Atom::Client supports both the REST and SOAP-wrapper versions of the Atom API. By default, the REST version of the API will be used,
but you can turn on the SOAP wrapper--for example, if you need to connect to a server that supports only the SOAP wrapper--by calling
use_soap with a value of 1:
$api->use_soap(1);
If called without arguments, returns the current value of the flag.
$api->username([ $username ])
If called with an argument, sets the username for login to $username.
Returns the current username that will be used when logging in to the Atom server.
$api->password([ $password ])
If called with an argument, sets the password for login to $password.
Returns the current password that will be used when logging in to the Atom server.
$api->createEntry($PostURI, $entry)
Creates a new entry.
$entry must be an XML::Atom::Entry object.
$api->getEntry($EditURI)
Retrieves the entry with the given URL $EditURI.
Returns an XML::Atom::Entry object.
$api->updateEntry($EditURI, $entry)
Updates the entry at URL $EditURI with the entry $entry, which must be an XML::Atom::Entry object.
Returns true on success, false otherwise.
$api->deleteEntry($EditURI)
Deletes the entry at URL $EditURI.
$api->getFeed($FeedURI)
Retrieves the feed at $FeedURI.
Returns an XML::Atom::Feed object representing the feed returned from the server.
ERROR HANDLING
Methods return "undef" on error, and the error message can be retrieved using the errstr method.
