NAME
    HTTP::Tiny::UA - Higher-level UA features for HTTP::Tiny

VERSION
    version 0.003

SYNOPSIS
        use HTTP::Tiny::UA;
    
        my $ua = HTTP::Tiny::UA->new(
            ...
        );

DESCRIPTION
    This module extends HTTP::Tiny with higher-level convenience features.

METHODS
  new
        $http = HTTP::Tiny::UA->new( %attributes );

    This is inherited from HTTP::Tiny. The only difference so far is that
    "agent" will be "HTTP-Tiny-UA/$VERSION".

    *   "agent"

        A user-agent string (defaults to 'HTTP-Tiny-UA/$VERSION'). If
        "agent" ends in a space character, the default user-agent string is
        appended.

    *   "cookie_jar"

        An instance of HTTP::CookieJar or equivalent class that supports the
        "add" and "cookie_header" methods

    *   "default_headers"

        A hashref of default headers to apply to requests

    *   "local_address"

        The local IP address to bind to

    *   "max_redirect"

        Maximum number of redirects allowed (defaults to 5)

    *   "max_size"

        Maximum response size (only when not using a data callback). If
        defined, responses larger than this will return an exception.

    *   "proxy"

        URL of a proxy server to use (default is $ENV{http_proxy} if set)

    *   "no_proxy"

        List of domain suffixes that should not be proxied. Must be a
        comma-separated string or an array reference. (default is
        $ENV{no_proxy})

    *   "timeout"

        Request timeout in seconds (default is 60)

    *   "verify_SSL"

        A boolean that indicates whether to validate the SSL certificate of
        an "https" connection (default is false)

    *   "SSL_options"

        A hashref of "SSL_*" options to pass through to IO::Socket::SSL

    See SSL SUPPORT in HTTP::Tiny for more on the "verify_SSL" and
    "SSL_options" attributes.

  get|head|put|post|post_form|mirror|delete
    These methods are inherited from HTTP::Tiny and work the same, except
    they invoke the HTTP::Tiny::UA request method and return a
    HTTP::Tiny::UA::Response object.

  request
        my $res = HTTP::Tiny->new->get( $url );

    Just like HTTP::Tiny::request, but returns a HTTP::Tiny::UA::Response
    object. All other "get", "post", etc. methods eventually invoke this one
    so all such methods return response objects now.

EXCEPTIONS
    Exceptions from "max_size", "timeout" or other error conditions will
    result in a pseudo-HTTP status code of 599 and a reason of "Internal
    Exception". The content field in the response will contain the text of
    the exception.

CONTRIBUTING
    Unlike HTTP::Tiny, this module is open to additional features. Please
    discuss new ideas on the bug tracker for feedback before implementing.

    While this module is not strictly "Tiny", here are some general
    guidelines:

    *   The goal for this module is not feature/API equivalence with
        LWP::UserAgent

    *   Core module dependencies and "Tiny"-ish module dependencies are OK

    *   Other CPAN modules should be used sparingly and only for good
        reasons

    *   Any XS dependencies must be optional

SEE ALSO
    *   HTTP::Tiny — the underlying client

    *   HTTP::Thin — another HTTP::Tiny extension that uses HTTP::Message
        objects

    *   LWP::UserAgent — when you outgrow HTTP::Tiny, use this
