NAME

WWW::FetchStory::Fetcher::Default - default fetching module for WWW::FetchStory

VERSION

version 0.2003

DESCRIPTION

This is the default story-fetching plugin for WWW::FetchStory.

METHODS

info

Information about the fetcher.

$info = $self->info();

priority

The priority of this fetcher. Fetchers with higher priority get tried first. This is useful where there may be a generic fetcher for a particular site, and then a more specialized fetcher for particular sections of a site. For example, there may be a generic LiveJournal fetcher, and then refinements for particular LiveJournal community, such as the sshg_exchange community. This works as either a class function or a method.

This must be overridden by the specific fetcher class.

$priority = $self->priority();

$priority = WWW::FetchStory::Fetcher::priority($class);

allow

If this fetcher can be used for the given URL, then this returns true. This must be overridden by the specific fetcher class.

    if ($obj->allow($url))
    {
        ....
    }
