SMS::Send::US::Verizon - SMS::Send driver for the text.vzw.com website
This document describes SMS::Send::US::Verizon version 0.0.1
use SMS::Send;
my $sender = SMS::Send->new('US::Verizon');
$sender->send_sms(
'to' => '202-555-2368', # ten digit, Verizon number
'text' => "You'll never believe me!", #
'_from' => 'phalliwell@charmed-gmail.com', #
'_callback' => '415-555-0198', #
'_subject' => '', # If specified, will appear after _from in parenthesis.
'_priority' => 1, # Use "1" for Urgent messages. Default is 0 for Normal messages.
) or _handle_sms_error( $@ );
Sends an SMS::Send message to Verizon US customers when used as the SMS::Send driver. This uses the Verizon web interface at https://text.vzw.com/customer_site/jsp/messaging_lo.jsp.
Uses 'to' and 'text' as per SMS::Send and additionally uses '_from', '_callback', '_subject', and '_priority'
Another way to send text messages to Verizon Wireless subscribers is by email. Send an email to xxxxxxxxxx@vtext.com where xxxxxxxxxx is the subscriber's 10-digit wireless number.
No authentication parameters necessary.
SMS::Send->new('US::Verizon');
If send_sms() returns true, then the return value is the Tracking ID or the message and the initial status of the send.
print $sender->send_sms( to => "4155550198", text => "Hi!" ); # Returns something like "MsgID5_ABCDEFGH - Sending your message" upon success.
This return value may change in format and/or text in future versions.
If send_sms() returns false then $@ is set to the error message.
'to' must contain 10 digitsThe value passed to 'to' does not have ten digits.
'_from', 'text', '_callback' and '_subject' combined must not be more than 160 charactersThe length of characters in '_from', 'text', '_callback' and '_subject' combined are too long. Message will be sent, but it will be truncated by Verizon.
SMS::Send::US::Verizon requires no configuration files or environment variables.
LWP::UserAgent, URI::Escape, SMS::Send::Driver
None known.
No bugs have been reported. Heavily reliant upon Verizon Wireless' web interface. A change there may break this.
Please report any bugs or feature requests to bug-sms-send-us-verizon@rt.cpan.org, or through the web interface at http://rt.cpan.org.
