RPC::XML - An implementation of XML-RPC
Version: 0.82
WHAT IS IT
The RPC::XML package is an implementation of XML-RPC. The module provides
classes for sample client and server implementations, a server designed as an
Apache location-handler, and a suite of data-manipulation classes that are
used by them.
USING RPC::XML
There are not any pre-packaged executables in this distribution (except for a
utility tool). Client usage will usually be along the lines of:
use RPC::XML::Client;
...
my $client = RPC::XML::Client->new(
'http://www.oreillynet.com/meerkat/xml-rpc/server.php' );
my $req = RPC::XML::request->new('meerkat.getChannelsBySubstring', 'perl');
my $res = $client->send_request($req);
# This returns an object of the RPC::XML::response class. This double-call
# of value() first gets a RPC::XML::* data object from the response, then
# the actual data from it:
my $value = $res->value->value;
Running a simple server is not much more involved:
use RPC::XML::Server;
...
my $srv = RPC::XML::Server->new( host => 'localhost',
port => 9000 );
# You would then use $srv->add_method to add some remotely-callable code
...
$srv->accept_loop; # Stays in an accept/connect loop
BUILDING/INSTALLING
This package is set up to configure and build like a typical Perl extension.
To build:
perl Makefile.PL
make && make test
If RPC::XML passes all tests, then:
make install
You may need super-user access to install.
