Net::RFC::Search - search for RFC's and dump RFC's content either to a variable or to a file.
Net::RFC::Search provides 2 methods:
search_by_header('keyword') is for searching for a RFC index number by given 'keyword' (through RFC index text file).
get_by_index($index_number) is for dumping RFC's content either to a variable or to a file.
use Net::RFC::Search; my $rfc = Net::RFC::Search->new; # This will return array of RFC indices with "websocket" keyword in their headers. my @found = $rfc->search_by_header('WebSocket'); # This will dump content of RFC 6455 into $rfc_text variable. my $rfc_text = $rfc->get_by_index(6455); # Dumps RFC 6455 into /tmp/6455.txt file $rfc->get_by_index(6455, '/tmp/6455.txt');
