NAME LWP::UserAgent::Patch::Plugin - Change use of LWP::UserAgent to that of LWP::UserAgent::Plugin VERSION This document describes version 0.001 of LWP::UserAgent::Patch::Plugin (from Perl distribution LWP-UserAgent-Patch-Plugin), released on 2019-04-15. SYNOPSIS First, invoke this patch. From Perl: use LWP::UserAgent::Patch::Plugin # -set_plugins => ['Cache', CustomRetry=>{strategy=>"Exponential", strategy_options=>{initial_delay=>0.5, max_delay=>300}}], ; or: use LWP::UserAgent::Patch::Plugin; LWP::UserAgent::Plugin->set_plugins('Cache', ...); From command-line: % LWP_USERAGENT_PLUGINS='["Cache","CustomRetry",{"strategy":"Exponential","strategy_options":{"initial_delay":0.5}}]' \ perl -MLWP::UserAgent::Patch::Plugin script-that-uses-lwp-useragent.pl ... Now every usage of LWP::UserAgent, e.g.: my $response = LWP::UserAgent->new->get("http://www.example.com/"); will become: my $response = LWP::UserAgent::Plugin->new->get("http://www.example.com/"); DESCRIPTION This module replaces every instantiation of LWP::UserAgent to instantiate LWP::UserAgent::Plugin instead, so you can use LWP::UserAgent::Plugin's plugins. Note that instantiation of other LWP::UserAgent subclasses, e.g. WWW::Mechanize is not replaced with instantiation of LWP::UserAgent::Plugin. CONFIGURATION -set_plugins Array. Will be passed to LWP::UserAgent::Plugin's "set_plugins()". You can also set plugins by calling "set_plugins()" yourself. FAQ HOMEPAGE Please visit the project's homepage at .
