Currently it only implements the parts of the API that manipulate Backpack pages. Future releases will increase the coverage. =head2 Getting Started In order to use the Backpack API, you'll need to have a Backpack API token. And in order to get one of those, you'll need a Backpack account. But then again, the API will be pretty useless to you if you don't have a Backpack account to manipulate with it. You can get a Backpack account from L. =head2 Backback API The Backpack API is based on XML over HTTP. You send an XML message over HTTP to the Backpack server and the server sends a response to you which is also in XML. The format of the various XML requests and responses are defined at L. This module removes the need to deal with any XML. You create an object to talk to the Backpack server and call methods on that object to manipulate your Backpage pages. The values returned from Backpack are converted to Perl data structures before being handed back to you (although it is also possible to get back the raw XML). =head1 Important Note Net::Backpack uses XML::Simple to parse the data that is returned from Backpack. From version 1.10 of Net::Backpack has changed. By default we now pass the parameter C 1> to XML::Simple. This will change the Perl data structure returned by most calls. To get the old behaviour back, you can pass the parameter C 0> to the C function. =cut package Net::Backpack; use 5.006; use strict; use warnings; use Carp; use LWP::UserAgent; use HTTP::Request; use XML::Simple; our $VERSION = '1.14'; my %data = ( 'list_all_pages' => { url => '/ws/pages/all', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'create_page' => { url => '/ws/pages/new', req => ' [S:token] [P:title] [P:description] ' }, 'show_page' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'destroy_page' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:id]/destroy', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'update_title' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:id]/update_title', req => ' [S:token] [P:title] ' }, update_body => { url => '/ws/page/[P:id]/update_body', req => ' [S:token] [P:description] ' }, 'duplicate_page' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:id]/duplicate', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'link_page' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:to_page]/link', req => ' [S:token] [P:link_page] ' }, 'unlink_page' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:from_page]/link', req => ' [S:token] [P:link_page] ' }, 'share_people' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:id]/share', req => ' [S:token] [P:people] ' }, 'make_page_public' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:id]/share', req => ' [S:token] [P:public] ' }, 'unshare_friend_page' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:id]/unshare_friend_page', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'email_page' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:id]/email', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'list_all_items' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/items/list', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'create_item' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/items/add', req => ' [S:token] [P:item] ' }, 'update_item' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/items/update/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] [P:item] ' }, 'toggle_item' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/items/toggle/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'destroy_item' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/items/destroy/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'move_item' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/items/move/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] [P:direction] ' }, 'list_all_notes' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/notes/list', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'create_note' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/notes/create', req => ' [S:token] [P:title] [P:body] ' }, 'update_note' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/notes/update/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] [P:title] [P:body] ' }, 'destroy_note' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/notes/destroy/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'get_tag_pages' => { url => '/ws/tags/[P:page_id]', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'set_page_tags' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/tags/tag', req => ' [S:token] [P:tags] ' }, 'upcoming_reminders' => { url => '/ws/reminders', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'create_reminder' => { url => '/ws/reminders/create', req => ' [S:token] [P:content] [P:remind_at] ' }, 'update_reminder' => { url => '/ws/reminders/update/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] [P:content] [P:remind_at] ' }, 'destroy_reminder' => { url => '/ws/reminders/destroy/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'list_all_emails' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/emails/list', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'show_email' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/emails/show/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'destroy_email' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/emails/destroy/[P:id]', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'export' => { url => '/ws/account/export', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'list_all_lists' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/lists/list', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'list_this_list' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/items/list?list_id=[P:list_id]', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'create_list' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/lists/add', req => ' [S:token] [P:title] ' }, 'update_list' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/lists/update/[P:list_id]', req => ' [S:token] [P:title] ' }, 'destroy_list' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/lists/destroy/[P:list_id]', req => ' [S:token] ' }, 'create_list_item' => { url => '/ws/page/[P:page_id]/items/add?list_id=[P:list_id]', req => ' [S:token] [P:item] ' }, ); =head1 METHODS =head2 $bp = Net::Backpack->new(token => $token, user => $user, [forcearray => 0], ssl => 0); Creates a new Net::Backpack object.
