NAME

Google::Fusion - Interface to the Google Fusion Tables API

VERSION

Version 0.10

SYNOPSIS

  my $fusion = Google::Fusion->new( 
    client_id       => $client_id,
    client_secret   => $client_secret,
    token_store     => $token_store,
    );

  # Get the result for a query
  my $result = $fusion->query( $sql );
  
  # Print out the rows returned
  foreach( @{ $result->rows } ){
      print join( ',', @{ $_ } ) . "\n";
  }

PARAMS/ACCESSORS

One of the following combination of parameters is required:

    client_id and client_secret

You will be prompted with a URL, with which you will atain an access_code.

    client_id, client_secret, access_code

The OAuth2 client will complete the authorization process for you and get the refresh_token and access_token for you

    refresh_token and optionally access_token

The OAuth2 client will get a valid access_token for you if necessary, and refresh it when necessary.

    access_token

You will be able to make requests as long as the access_token is valid.

  • client_id <Str>

    The client id of your application.

  • client_secret <Str>

    The secret for your application

  • refresh_token <Str>

    Refresh token. Can be defined here, otherwise it will be aquired during the authorization process

  • access_token <Str>

    A temporary access token aquired during the authorization process Can be defined here, otherwise it will be aquired during the authorization process

  • keep_alive <Int>

    Use keep_alive for connections - this will make the application /much/ more responsive.

    Default: 1

  • headers <Bool>

    Responses passed with headers.

    Default: 1

  • access_code <Str>

    The code returned during the OAuth2 authorization process with which access_token and refresh_token are aquired.

  • auth_client

    A Net::OAuth2::Moosey::Client object with which authenticated requests are made. If you are running in application mode (interactive), then you can accept the default. If you already have an authenticated client, then initialise with it. If you have some required parameters (access_token, refresh_token or access_code), but no client object yet, then just define these parameters, and allow the client to be created for you.

  • query_cache <Str>

    Path to a directory to use as a query cache. This can be used to cache your results for blazing fast performance, and not actually hitting google for every query when testing, but should not be enabled in a productive environment otherwise you will have stale content.

  • token_store <Str>

    Path to the token store file to store access/refresh tokens

METHODS

query

Submit a (Googley) SQL query. Single argument is the SQL. Return is a Google::Fusion::Result object

Example:

    my $result = $fusion->query( 'SELECT * FROM 123456' );

get_fresh_access_token

Force the OAuth access token to be refreshed

Example:

    $fusion->get_fresh_access_token();

add_to_insert_buffer

The Fusion Table intefrace allows multiple INSERT commands to be sent in one query. This can be used similarly to the query method, but and will reduce the number of queries you use.

# Get data from your local database $sth->execute(); while( my $row = $sth->fetchrow_hashref ){ $fusion->add_to_insert_buffer( sprintf( "INSERT INTO INTO 12345 ( Id, Text ) VALUES( '%s', '%s' )", $row->{Id}, $row->{Text} ) ); } $fusion->send_insert_buffer;

Obviously this can be further optimised by having many VALUES per INSERT.

If a send_insert_buffer was triggered during the add, this is returned, otherwise undef is returned

send_insert_buffer

Flush the rest of the insert buffer
