SYNOPSIS

 # Model
 __PACKAGE__->config(
    location => 'http://webservice.example.com:9000',
 );

 # Controller
 sub default : Private {
    my ($self, $c) = @_;

    my $res;

        # Something went wrong...

    ...
};

DESCRIPTION

This model class uses RPC::XML::Client to invoke remote procedure calls using XML-RPC.

CONFIGURATION

You can pass the same configuration fields as when you call RPC::XML::Client, the only special thing is that the URI is provided via the location field.

METHODS

General

Take a look at RPC::XML::Client to see the method you can call.

NOTES

By default, there is an error_handler and a fault_handler provided for the RPC::XML::Client object that call Carp::croak. You can override it if you want via the config call.

Can't create RPC::XML::Client object
