INTERFACE

new( $args )

Constructs a new BigDoor Resource object

args

Reference to hash of Resource object attributes

all( $client )

Loads all Resource objects of this type.

client

WWW::BigDoor client object

load( $client, [$id] )

Loads single Resource object identified by id or reloads existing object if id omitted.

client

WWW::BigDoor client object

id

BigDoor Resource object ID. If calling object has id attribute defined, $id parameter is optional

save( $client )

Saves Resource object. If object has id attribute defined than PUT method is used, otherwise POST is used.

client

WWW::BigDoor client object

remove( $client, [$id] )

client

WWW::BigDoor client object

id

BigDoor Resource object ID. If calling object has id attribute defined, $id parameter is optional.

end_point()

Returns corresponding end_point URL for this particular object.

DIAGNOSTICS

In case of HTTP errors check HTTP response code returned by $client->get_response_code() or response body returned by $client->get_response_content().

For debugging purpose there is result object returned by REST::Client c<request()> call which could be accessed through get_request() and this result object contains HTTP::Response object.

CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT

WWW::BigDoor::Resource requires no configuration files or environment variables.

DEPENDENCIES

The module requires WWW::BigDoor module and all its dependecies.

DIFFERENCES FROM PYTHON BIGDOORKIT

Method name get() was changed to load() to avoid conflict with get() method inherited from Class::Accessor. Method name delete was changed to remove() to avoid conflict with Perl internal method delete.

INCOMPATIBILITIES

None reported.

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

Code is not fully covered by tests and there are not much tests for failures and, as consequence, not much parameters validation or checking for error conditions. Don't expect too much diagnosticts in case of errors.

Objects correspondig to following end points are not currently implemented:

• http://api.bigdoor.com/api/publisher/{application_key}/auth

• http://api.bigdoor.com/api/publisher/{application_key}/proxy

• http://api.bigdoor.com/api/publisher/{application_key}/transaction_summary

• http://api.bigdoor.com/api/publisher/{application_key}/award_summary

• http://api.bigdoor.com/api/publisher/{application_key}/level_summary

• http://api.bigdoor.com/api/publisher/{application_key}/good_summary

No bugs have been reported.
