DESCRIPTION This module patches LWP::UserAgent (which is used by LWP::Simple, WWW::Mechanize, among others) so that HTTP request contents are logged using Log::ger. FAQ Why not subclass? By patching, you do not need to replace all the client code which uses LWP (or WWW::Mechanize, etc). Why is the request content logged before request headers (when using with Net::HTTP::Methods::Patch::LogRequest)? Yup, it's ugly. I'm working on that. SEE ALSO Use Net::HTTP::Methods::Patch::LogRequest to log raw HTTP request headers being sent to servers. Use LWP::UserAgent::Patch::LogResponse to log HTTP responses. Log::ger::For::LWP bundles all three mentioned patches in a single convenient package.
