Version 0.1.0

SYNOPSIS

                                site    => 'Ads.gr site code',
                                remote  => $ENV{'HTTP_USER_AGENT'},
                                address => $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'},
                                text    => 'default ad text',
                                link    => 'default ad link',
                                });
 

DESCRIPTION

Mobile::Ads::Adsgr provides an object oriented interface to serve advertisements from Ads.gr in mobile sites. ads.gr was written by me, so it is quite safe to assume it works, despite sloppy writing on this module (all the Mobile::Ads family to be exact)

new Mobile::Ads::Adsgr

[$parent]

To reuse Mobile::Ads in multiple (subsequent) ad requests, you can pass a Mobile::Ads reference here. Instead of creating a new Mobile::Ads object, we will use the one you pass instead. This might save a little LWP::UserAgent creation/destruction time.

Parameters/Properties

site

=> Ads.gr site code, delivered by them. Something in the form off ``site_name'' (ie ``wapamama'')

remote

=> Remote User Agent ($ENV{'HTTP_USER_AGENT'}). In fact $ENV{'HTTP_USER_AGENT'} will be used if not supplied.

address

=> $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}. All things about HTTP_USER_AGENT also apply here.

text

=> Should we fail to retrieve a real ad, this is the text of the ad displayed instead

link

=> Same with text, but for the ad's link.

Methods

get_adsgr_ad

=> Does the actual fetching of the ad for the site given. Refer to new for details Returns a list ($text_for_ad,$link_for_ad,$ad_image) value.
