NAME
    Perinci::Access - Wrapper for Perinci Riap clients

VERSION
    This document describes version 0.37 of Perinci::Access (from Perl
    distribution Perinci-Access), released on 2014-08-06.

SYNOPSIS
     use Perinci::Access;

     my $pa = Perinci::Access->new;
     my $res;

     ### launching Riap request

     # use Perinci::Access::Perl
     $res = $pa->request(call => "pl:/Mod/SubMod/func");

     # use Perinci::Access::Schemeless
     $res = $pa->request(call => "/Mod/SubMod/func");

     # use Perinci::Access::HTTP::Client
     $res = $pa->request(info => "http://example.com/Sub/ModSub/func",
                         {uri=>'/Sub/ModSub/func'});

     # use Perinci::Access::Simple::Client
     $res = $pa->request(meta => "riap+tcp://localhost:7001/Sub/ModSub/");

     # dies, unknown scheme
     $res = $pa->request(call => "baz://example.com/Sub/ModSub/");

     ### parse URI

     $res = $pa->parse_url("/Foo/bar");                              # {proto=>'pl', path=>"/Foo/bar"}
     $res = $pa->parse_url("pl:/Foo/bar");                           # ditto
     $res = $pa->parse_url("riap+unix:/var/run/apid.sock//Foo/bar"); # {proto=>'riap+unix', path=>"/Foo/bar", unix_sock_path=>"/var/run/apid.sock"}
     $res = $pa->parse_url("riap+tcp://localhost:7001/Sub/ModSub/"); # {proto=>'riap+tcp', path=>"/Sub/ModSub/", host=>"localhost", port=>7001}
     $res = $pa->parse_url("http://cpanlists.org/api/");             # {proto=>'http', path=>"/App/cpanlists/Server/"} # will perform an 'info' Riap request to the server first

DESCRIPTION
    This module provides a convenient wrapper to select appropriate Riap
    client (Perinci::Access::*) objects based on URI scheme.

     /Foo/Bar/             -> Perinci::Access::Schemeless
     pl:/Foo/Bar           -> Perinci::Access::Perl
     riap://perl/Foo/Bar/  -> Perinci::Access::Perl (converted to pl:/Foo/Bar/)
     http://...            -> Perinci::Access::HTTP::Client
     https://...           -> Perinci::Access::HTTP::Client
     riap+tcp://...        -> Perinci::Access::Simple::Client
     riap+unix://...       -> Perinci::Access::Simple::Client
     riap+pipe://...       -> Perinci::Access::Simple::Client

    For more details on each scheme, please consult the appropriate module.

    You can customize or add supported schemes by providing class name or
    object to the handlers attribute (see its documentation for more
    details).

VARIABLES
  $Log_Request (BOOL)
    Whether to log every Riap request. Default is from environment variable
    LOG_RIAP_REQUEST, or false. Logging is done with Log::Any at trace
    level.

  $Log_Response (BOOL)
    Whether to log every Riap response. Default is from environment variable
    LOG_RIAP_RESPONSE, or false. Logging is done with Log::Any at trace
    level.

METHODS
  new(%opts) -> OBJ
    Create new instance. Known options:

    *   handlers => HASH

        A mapping of scheme names and class names or objects. If values are
        class names, they will be require'd and instantiated. The default
        is:

         {
           ''           => 'Perinci::Access::Schemeless',
           pl           => 'Perinci::Access::Perl',
           http         => 'Perinci::Access::HTTP::Client',
           https        => 'Perinci::Access::HTTP::Client',
           'riap+tcp'   => 'Perinci::Access::Simple::Client',
           'riap+unix'  => 'Perinci::Access::Simple::Client',
           'riap+pipe'  => 'Perinci::Access::Simple::Client',
         }

        Objects can be given instead of class names. This is used if you
        need to pass special options when instantiating the class.

    *   handler_args => HASH

        Arguments to pass to handler objects' constructors.

  $pa->request($action, $server_url[, \%extra_keys[, \%client_opts]]) -> RESP
    Send Riap request to Riap server. Pass the request to the appropriate
    Riap client (as configured in "handlers" constructor options). RESP is
    the enveloped result.

    %extra_keys is optional, containing Riap request keys (the "action"
    request key is taken from $action).

    %client_opts is optional, containing Riap-client-specific options. For
    example, to pass HTTP credentials to "Perinci::Access::HTTP::Client",
    you can do:

     $pa->request(call => 'http://example.com/Foo/bar', {args=>{a=>1}},
                  {user=>'admin', password=>'secret'});

  $pa->parse_url($server_url[, \%client_opts]) => HASH
    Parse $server_url into its components. Will be done by respective
    subclasses. Die on failure (e.g. invalid URL). Return a hash on success,
    containing at least these keys:

    *   proto => STR

    *   path => STR

        Code entity path. Most URL schemes include the code entity path as
        part of the URL, e.g. "pl", "riap+unix", "riap+tcp", or "riap+pipe".
        Some do not, e.g. "http" and "https". For the latter case, an "info"
        Riap request will be sent to the server first to find out the code
        entity path .

    Subclasses will add other appropriate keys.

ENVIRONMENT
    LOG_RIAP_REQUEST

    LOG_RIAP_RESPONSE
