NAME

WWW::Yahoo::KeywordExtractor - Get keywords from summary text via the Yahoo API

SYNOPSIS

This module will submit content to the Yahoo keyword extractor API to return a list of relevant keywords.

  use WWW::Yahoo::KeywordExtractor;
  my $yke = WWW::Yahoo::KeywordExtractor->new();
  my $keywords = $yke->extract(content => 'My wife and I love to cook together. Carolyn surprises me with new things to love about her everyday.');
  print join q{}. 'Keyword 1: ', $keywords->[0], "\n";

SUBROUTINES/METHOD

new

The new subroutine creates and returns a WWW:Yahoo::KeywordExtractor object.

extract

This method will return a list of keywords based on sample data. It will die if there is no 'content' arg given.

CACHING

This module will attempt to cache its data locally. It does this by creating content cache keys which are md5 hashes of content. Sooner or later I will update this module to also provide a list of content cache keys.
