DESCRIPTION
This class provides accessors and methods to handle client upload requests.
METHODS
$upload->new
Simple constructor.
$upload->copy_to
Copies the temporary file using File::Copy. Returns true for success, false for failure.
$upload->copy_to('/path/to/target');$upload->fh
Opens a temporary file (see tempname below) and returns an IO::File handle.
$upload->filename
Returns the client-supplied filename.
$upload->headers
Returns an HTTP::Headers object for the request.
$upload->link_to
Creates a hard link to the temporary file. Returns true for success, false for failure.
$upload->link_to('/path/to/target');$upload->size
Returns the size of the uploaded file in bytes.
$upload->slurp
Returns a scalar containing the contents of the temporary file.
Note that this will cause the filehandle pointed to by $upload->fh to be reset to the start of the file using seek and the file handle to be put into binary mode.
$upload->basename
Returns basename for filename.
$upload->tempname
Returns the path to the temporary file.
$upload->type
Returns the client-supplied Content-Type.
