WWW::AUR::URI - Generate dynamic URIs for accessing the AUR
use WWW::AUR::URI qw(:all); my $uri = pkgfile_uri('perl-www-aur'); $uri = pkgbuild_uri('perl-www-aur'); $uri = pkgsubmit_uri(); $uri = pkg_uri('SB' => 'n', 'O' => 1234, 'https' => 'YUP'); # Override Scheme to use http... local $WWW::AUR::URI::Scheme = 'http'; my $httpsuri = pkgfile_uri('perl-www-aur'); print $httpsuri # "http://aur.archlinux.org/..."
This is a collection of functions used internally by other modules in the WWW-AUR distribution. For advanced users only. Well... sorta.
This module exports nothing by default. You must explicitly import functions or import the all tag to import all functions.
all
use WWW::AUR::URI qw( pkgfile_uri pkgbuild_uri pkgsubmit_uri pkg_uri rpc_uri ); use WWW::AUR::URI qw( :all );
$URI = pkgfile_uri( $PKGNAME )
$PKGNAME
The name of the package.
$URI
The standard URI to the source package tarball.
$URI = pkgbuild_uri( $PKGNAME )
The standard URI to the conveniently extracted PKGBUILD file.
$URI = pkg_uri( %QUERY_PARAMS )
This generates a URI for the https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ webpage. The one that shows package information and comments, etc.
%QUERY_PARAMS
You can supply whatever query parameters that you want. You might want to look at the AUR's HTML source to learn how they work.
The URI to packages/ with query parameters appended.
$URI = pkgsubmit_uri( )
This usually returns https://aur.archlinux.org/submit/ but can be changed with $WWW::AUR::HOST and $WWW::AUR::URI::Scheme.
$WWW::AUR::HOST
$WWW::AUR::URI::Scheme
The URI used for submitting packages.
$URI = rpc_uri( $METHOD, @ARGS )
Generates a URI for the http://aur.archlinux.org/rpc.php page.
$METHOD
The RPC "method" to use. Must be either search, info, multiinfo, or msearch.
@ARG
The RPC "arguments" to give to the "method". multiinfo is the only "method" that uses all of the arguments given. The other methods only use the first argument and ignore the rest.
The URI to the rpc.php page with query parameters in place.
This scalar contains the URI scheme to be inserted into all generated URIs. The default value is "https".
# This prints a URI starting with http:// local $WWW::AUR::URI::Scheme = 'http'; print pkgbuild_uri('perl-www-aur'), "\n";
