WWW::Dict::Leo::Org - Interface module to dictionary dict.leo.org
use WWW::Dict::Leo::Org; my $leo = new WWW::Dict::Leo::Org(); my @matches = $leo->translate($term);
WWW::Dict::Leo::Org is a module which connects to the website dict.leo.org and translates the given term. It returns an array of hashes. Each hash contains a left side and a right side of the result entry.
new() has several parameters, which can be supplied as a hash.
All parameters are optional.
The hostname of the dict website to use. For the moment only dict.leo.org is supported, which is also the default - therefore changing the hostname would not make much sense.
The tcp port to use for connecting, the default is 80, you shouldn't change it.
The user-agent to send to dict.leo.org site. Currently this is the default:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.8.1.9) Gecko/20071025 Firefox/2.0.0.9
Fully qualified proxy server. Specify as you would do in the well known environment variable http_proxy, example:
-Proxy => "http://192.168.1.1:3128"
If your proxy requires authentication, use these parameters to specify the credentials.
If enabled (set to 1), prints a lot of debug information to stderr, normally only required for developers or to report bugs (see below).
Parameters to control behavior of dict.leo.org:
Be tolerant to spelling errors.
Default: turned on.

Possible values: standard, none, forcedAll.

Use this method after initialization to connect to dict.leo.org and translate the given term. It returns an array of hashes containing the actual results.
use WWW::Dict::Leo::Org;
use Data::Dumper;
my $leo = new WWW::Dict::Leo::Org();
my @matches = $leo->translate("test");
print Dumper(\@matches);
which prints:
$VAR1 = [
{
'data' => [
{
'left' => 'check',
'right' => 'der Test'
},
{
'left' => 'quiz (Amer.)',
'right' => 'der Test [Schule]'

'right' => 'im Test'
}
