NAME
Bio::WebAgent - A base class for Web (any protocol) access SYNOPSIS
# This is a abstract superclass for bioperl modules accessing web # resources - normally you do not instantiate it but one of its # subclasess. DESCRIPTION
This abstract superclass is a subclass of LWP::UserAgent which allows protocol independent access of remote locations over the Net. It takes care of error handling, proxies and various net protocols. BioPerl classes accessing the net should inherit from it. For details, see LWP::UserAgent. The interface is still evolving. For now, two public methods have been copied from Bio::DB::WebDBSeqI: delay() and delay_policy. These are used to prevent overwhelming the server by rapidly repeated . Ideally there should be a common abstract superclass with these. See delay. SEE ALSO
LWP::UserAgent, Bio::DB::WebDBSeqI, FEEDBACK
Mailing Lists User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing list. Your participation is much appreciated. bioperl-l@bioperl.org - General discussion http://bioperl.org/wiki/Mailing_lists - About the mailing lists Support Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list: bioperl-l@bioperl.org rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _ url Usage : $agent->url Returns : URL to reach out to Net Args : string delay Title : delay Usage : $secs = $self->delay([$secs]) Function: get/set number of seconds to delay between fetches Returns : number of seconds to delay Args : new value NOTE: the default is to use the value specified by delay_policy(). This can be overridden by calling this method, or by passing the -delay argument to new(). delay_policy Title : delay_policy Usage : $secs = $self->delay_policy Function: return number of seconds to delay between calls to remote db Returns : number of seconds to delay Args : none NOTE: The default delay policy is 3s. Override in subclasses to implement other delays. The timer has only second resolution, so the delay will actually be +/- 1s. sleep Title : sleep Usage : $self->sleep Function: sleep for a number of seconds indicated by the delay policy Returns : none Args : none NOTE: This method keeps track of the last time it was called and only imposes a sleep if it was called more recently than the delay_policy() allows. perl v5.14.2 2012-03-02 Bio::WebAgent(3pm)
