NAME Search::Elasticsearch::Cxn::NetCurl - A Cxn implementation which uses libcurl via Net::Curl VERSION version 1.13 DESCRIPTION Provides an HTTP Cxn class based on Net::Curl. The "NetCurl" Cxn class is very fast and uses persistent connections but requires XS and "libcurl". This class does Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn::HTTP, whose documentation provides more information. CONFIGURATION "connect_timeout" Unlike most HTTP backends, Net::Curl accepts a separate "connect_timeout" parameter, which defaults to 2 seconds but can be reduced in an environment with low network latency. Inherited configuration From Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn::HTTP * node * max_content_length * deflate From Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn * request_timeout * ping_timeout * dead_timeout * max_dead_timeout * sniff_request_timeout * sniff_timeout * handle_args METHODS "perform_request()" ($status,$body) = $self->perform_request({ # required method => 'GET|HEAD|POST|PUT|DELETE', path => '/path/of/request', qs => \%query_string_params, # optional data => $body_as_string, mime_type => 'application/json', timeout => $timeout }); Sends the request to the associated Elasticsearch node and returns a $status code and the decoded response $body, or throws an error if the request failed. Inherited methods From Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn::HTTP * scheme() * is_https() * userinfo() * default_headers() * max_content_length() * build_uri() From Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn * host() * port() * uri() * is_dead() * is_live() * next_ping() * ping_failures() * mark_dead() * mark_live() * force_ping() * pings_ok() * sniff() * process_response() SEE ALSO * Search::Elasticsearch::Role::Cxn::HTTP * Search::Elasticsearch::Cxn::Hijk * Search::Elasticsearch::Cxn::LWP * Search::Elasticsearch::Cxn::HTTPTiny BUGS This is a stable API but this implemenation is new.
