DESCRIPTION

LINE::Bot::API is a client library which lets you easily start using the LINE Messaging API. You can create a bot which runs on the LINE app by registering for a LINE Messaging API account. You can create a Messaging API account from the LINE Business Center.

You can find the Channel secret and Channel access token on the Basic information page on the Channel Console which you can access from the LINE Business Center.

Use this documentation and the LINE Developers documentation to get you started developing your own bot!

METHODS

new(%args)

Create a new LINE::Bot::API instance.

     my $bot = LINE::Bot::API->new(
        channel_secret       => $channel_secret,
        channel_access_token => $channel_access_token,
    );

reply_message($reply_token, [ $message, ... ] )

Send reply messages to a user, room or group.

    my $messages = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::SendMessage->new;
    $messages->add_text( text => 'Example reply text' );

    my $ret = $bot->reply_message($reply_token, $messages->build);
    unless ($ret->is_success) {
        # error
        warn $ret->message;
        for my $detail (@{ $ret->details // []}) {
            warn "    detail: " . $detail->{message};

How to build a send message object

See the LINE Developers API reference about Message objects

When the LINE::Bot::API::Builder::SendMessage class is used, it is possible easily to build a send message object. That class supports a fluent interface.

    my $messages = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::SendMessage->new(
    )->add_text(
        text => 'Closing the distance',
    )->add_image(
        image_url   => 'http://example.com/image.jpg',
        preview_url => 'http://example.com/image_preview.jpg',
    );
    $bot->reply_message($reply_token, $messages->build);

Text type

Build a text type object.

    my $messages = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::SendMessage->new(
    )->add_text(
        text => 'Closing the distance',
    );
    $bot->reply_message($reply_token, $messages->build);

Image type

Build an image type object.

    my $messages = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::SendMessage->new(
    )->add_image(
        image_url   => 'http://example.com/image.jpg',
        preview_url => 'http://example.com/image_preview.jpg',
    );
    $bot->reply_message($reply_token, $messages->build);

Video type

Build a video type object.

    my $messages = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::SendMessage->new(
    )->add_video(
        video_url   => 'http://example.com/video.mp4',
        preview_url => 'http://example.com/video_preview.jpg',
    );
    $bot->reply_message($reply_token, $messages->build);

Audio type

Build an audio type object.

    my $messages = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::SendMessage->new(
    )->add_audio(
        audio_url => 'http://example.com/image.m4a',
        duration  => 3601_000, # msec
    );
    $bot->reply_message($reply_token, $messages->build);

Location type

Build a location type object.

    my $messages = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::SendMessage->new(
    )->add_location(
        title     => 'LINE Corporation.',
        address   => 'Hikarie  Shibuya-ku Tokyo 151-0002',
        latitude  => 35.6591,
        longitude => 139.7040,
    );
    $bot->reply_message($reply_token, $messages->build);

Sticker type

Build a sticker type object.

    my $messages = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::SendMessage->new(
    )->add_sticker(
        package_id => '1',
        sticker_id => '2',
    );
    $bot->reply_message($reply_token, $messages->build);

Imagemap type

Build an imagemap type object. You can use a helper module for the imagemap type.

    my $imagemap = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::ImagemapMessage->new(
        base_url    => 'https://example.com/bot/images/rm001',
        alt_text    => 'this is an imagemap',
        base_width  => 1040,
        base_height => 1040,
    )->add_uri_action(
        uri         => 'http://example.com/',
        area_x      => 0,
        area_y      => 0,

        image_url => 'https://example.com/bot/images/image.jpg',
        title     => 'buttons',
        text      => 'description',
    )->add_postback_action(
        label => 'postback',
        data  => 'postback data',
        text  => 'postback message',
    )->add_message_action(
        label => 'message',

    )->add_message_action(
        label => 'message2',
        text  => 'message2',

        uri   => 'http://example.com/',
    );

    my $messages = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::SendMessage->new(
    )->add_template($confirm->build);
    $bot->reply_message($reply_token, $messages->build);
    my $carousel = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::TemplateMessage->new_carousel(
        alt_text => 'this is a carousel template',
    );
    for my $i (1..5) {
        my $column = LINE::Bot::API::Builder::TemplateMessage::Column->new(
