XML::RPC(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML::RPC(3pm) NAME XML::RPC -- Pure Perl implementation for an XML-RPC client and server. SYNOPSIS make a call to an XML-RPC server: use XML::RPC; my $xmlrpc = XML::RPC->new('http://betty.userland.com/RPC2'); my $result = $xmlrpc->call( 'examples.getStateStruct', { state1 => 12, state2 => 28 } ); create an XML-RPC service: use XML::RPC; use CGI; my $q = new CGI; my $xmlrpc = XML::RPC->new(); my $xml = $q->param('POSTDATA'); print $q->header( -type => 'text/xml', -charset => 'UTF-8' ); print $xmlrpc->receive( $xml, \&handler ); sub handler { my ( $methodname, @params ) = @_; return { you_called => $methodname, with_params => \@params }; } DESCRIPTION XML::RPC module provides simple Pure Perl methods for XML-RPC communication. It's goals are simplicity and flexibility. XML::RPC uses XML::TreePP for parsing. CONSTRUCTOR AND OPTIONS $xmlrpc = XML::RPC->new(); This constructor method returns a new XML::RPC object. Usable for XML-RPC servers. $xmlrpc = XML::RPC->new( 'http://betty.userland.com/RPC2', %options ); Its first argument is the full URL for your server. The second argument is for options passing to XML::TreePP, for example: output_encoding => 'ISO-8859-1' (default is UTF-8). METHODS $xmlrpc->call( 'method_name', @arguments ); This method calls the provides XML-RPC server's method_name with @arguments. It will return the server method's response. $xmlrpc->receive( $xml, \&handler ); This parses an incoming XML-RPC methodCall and call the \&handler subref with parameters: $methodName and @parameters. $xmlrpc->xml_in(); Returns the last XML that went in the client. $xmlrpc->xml_out(); Returns the last XML that went out the client. CUSTOM TYPES $xmlrpc->call( 'method_name', { data => sub { { 'base64' => encode_base64($data) } } } ); When passing a CODEREF to a value XML::RPC will simply use the returned hashref as a type => value pair. ERROR HANDLING To provide an error response you can simply die() in the \&handler function. Also you can set the $XML::RPC::faultCode variable to a (int) value just before dieing. PROXY SUPPORT Default XML::RPC will try to use LWP::Useragent for requests, you can set the environment variable: CGI_HTTP_PROXY to set a proxy. LIMITATIONS XML::RPC will not create "bool", "dateTime.iso8601" or "base64" types automatically. They will be parsed as "int" or "string". You can use the CODE ref to create these types.
