Revision history for WWW::Myspace
0.47 2006-05-31
- send_message REs updated due to change in MySpace site.
THE FOLLOWING METHODS WILL NOT WORK WITH PREVIOUS VERSIONS
DUE TO MYSPACE CHANGES:
- send_message
- reply_message
0.46 2006-05-24
- get_friends and friends_from_profile now accept an "exclude"
option that lets you pass a reference to a list or hash of
friendIDs to exclude. Since friendIDs are excluded as they are
read, passing an exclude list along with a max_count is much more
efficient (and faster) than reading all friends, then excluding.
- get_friends is now documented to accept a "source" option
( group, profile, or inbox ) and "id" option (friendID or groupID
as appropriate to the source). This both makes it possible to
use the new features on a group (because friends_from_group doesn't
take options yet), and makes the other methods convenience methods
(which they really already were, it just wasn't documented).
- Changed RE in friend_count to match Myspace formatting change.
Made more "robust".
- Changed RE in user_name to match Myspace formatting change.
Made more "robust".
- get_friends now sets $myspace->error if it encounters a page with
no friends on it.
- Changed RE in is_band to handle whitespace and account for Myspace
formatting change.
- Added _previous_button internal method.
- Updated REs in internal save_friend_info method to check for
whitespace instead of single space for robustness.
- Updated "private profile" RE in _get_friend_page to check for
whitespace instead of single spaces; added check for whitespace
after <br>.
- message_group will now die if get_friends returns with an error.
- get_friends now checks for "View All Friends", a Previous or
Next link, and for the </html> tag to make sure it's got a full
page, and displays a warning if it encounters a page with less than
35 friends on it.
THE FOLLOWING METHODS WILL NOT WORK WITH PREVIOUS VERSIONS
DUE TO MYSPACE CHANGES:
- friend_count
- user_name
- is_band
0.45 2006-05-09
- Added note regarding logins to test output.
- Fixed bug in FriendAdder.pm that re-cached friend ids even
if they already existed in the database
- Added methods to FriendAdder.pm and Data.pm to take advantage
of caching. FriendAdder.pm's is_band will first attempt to
get is_band info from the database before using the Myspace.pm
method
- Cleaned up get_friends code
- get_friends now accepts a hash of options. Current options are
max_count and end_page.
- friends_from_profile accepts a hash of options like get_friends
(same options). IDs can be passed as an array reference or
as a single ID ( id => 12345 ) or ( id => [ 12345, 123456 ] ).
- Altered MySQL table structures to make timestamps consistent
- add_log table has been dropped in database schema
- date_stamp now allows user to provide an epoch value in
Data.pm
- accelerated initial sorting of ids in FriendAdder when Data.pm
is used
- Added debugging code to Comment.pm to help track occasional
error that causes the module to die with an error about calling
post_comment in a boolean context.
- Removed explicit "$self->current_page" from submit_form calls in
post_comment method.
- site_login now checks for the "You must be logged in" page
immediately after submitting the login form.
In short, if your password is wrong, it'll try once then
return 0 and set $myspace->error. Once logged in, it will cache
the username/password as "valid", and subsequent "You must be
logged in" pages will be retried more vigorously.
- Added bad login test script.
- post_comment now croaks unless friend_id and message are passed.
- Fixed bug that would cause incorrect warning from get_friends if
called a second time after adding or deleting friends within the
same script.
- Modified post_comment to check for SCALAR instead of STR in
contextual "return" statement. This hopefully fixes an
error which caused WWW::Myspace::Comment::post_comments to fail
with "Can't call WWW::Myspace::post_comment in boolean context
at /Library/Perl/5.8.6/WWW/Myspace/Comment.pm line 448".
(This most notibly affects approve_friends, which would trip this
error when posting general comments after approving friends).
- Modified send_message and send_friend_request to check for
SCALAR instead of STR in contextual "return" statement.
- Modularized site_login method code.
- Added test to verify logged_in = 1 to 01-login.t.
0.44 2006-04-28
- add_friends script now documents a known issue in which friend
requests will be re-sent if they are denied.
- FriendAdder.pm now reports the number of skipped profiles if
profile_type parameter is not set to 'all' and interactive
mode is enabled
- Updated docs for is_band to note that one cannot assume that
a profile is a personal profile if is_band is false.
- Fixed issue that was causing logins to fail.
- Updated user_name and friend_count methods to work with new
Myspace change.
VERSIONS BEFORE 0.44 WILL FAIL LOGIN VERIFICATION as of 4/28/2006.

description if called in a list context.
- added cache_friend to Data.pm
- added call to cache_friend in FriendAdder.pm

development dungeon.
- Removed unfinished Poster.pm from distribution.
0.42 2006-04-19
- All page loads now check for "You must be logged in" error and
re-login if necessary. This fixes a bug many have reported in
which they will start receiving "Failed, Network Error" messages
for every post.
- Recoded delete_form to allow it to delete more than one
friend at a time.
- Message.pm now excludes previously posted friends whose profiles
were set to "private" or "away".
- Message.pm now displays the "counter" value for each message it's
sending.
- Removed delete_friend note from TODO.
- Corrected "Sorry! an unexpected error has occurred" RE check.

error if one occurs.
- "Detabbed" Myspace.pm code.

with a false value like so: "new WWW::Myspace( auto_login => 0 )".
- Added routines to croak if a function that requires login is
called when not logged in.
- Moved methods and their docs around in an attempt to
better organize things.
- Added search_music method. Still in testing.
- Removed test account logins. Only tests that don't require login
will be run by default. You can add a config file with personal
test accounts if you want to run full tests (see README for more
info and sample config file).
- Updated TestConfig.pm to use user-specific config file for full test
with generic fallback file.
- Fixed bug in Data.pm where friend_id was not passed to is_band
- add_account and update_friend in Data.pm now croak if database
connection cannot be created
- Fixed bug in send_message that would cause it to delay and return
"FN" if it encountered a user whose status was set to "away" or
who only accepts messages from friends. It should now return the
appropriate status code.
- submit_form now accepts a null URL, meaning it should search the
contents of $self->current_page for the form.
- Added delete_message method.
- Added bug in delete_friends to TODO.
- Added cleanup_inbox script to sample_scripts (deletes messages
from inbox, leaving most recent 40 messages).

read, and delete (not reply yet).
- get_friends now displays a warning and sets "error" if it
encounters a private profile.
- get_friends correctly allows friend viewing when not logged in,
but croaks if attempting to view a mailbox or group when not

after full test suite to make sure everything works in both modes.
0.39 2006-04-08
- Fixed bug in MyBase.pm that could cause an error in some
cases when the new method was invoked.
- Added fatal error in WWW:Myspace::FriendAdder if

- Added previously_posted method to Poster.pm, fixed bugs,
updated docs.
- Poster.pm's friend_ids method can now take a list or arrayref
to set its value.
- Updated get_friends to start at page 1 when serarching friend
lists, 0 for group and inbox due to myspace chage. (Note that this
change doesn't seem to affect the results, it was just loading
page 1 twice).
- Added get_friend_page to sample_scripts
- Added delete_friend to sample_scripts
- Fixed a bug in submit_form which could cause failures if an error
page was encountered on the first submit.
- Commented out "An Error Has Occurred" from the errors array in
Myspace.pm because it conflicts with the "Exceeded Useage"
(their typo, not mine) error message. It should fail, not try
again.

- Updated send_message to semi-properly handle Mech. and to use
the error method to check for failure from get_page.

- Updated docs for FriendAdder.pm and Data.pm
Made several enhancements to Myspace.pm:
- Myspace.pm is now a subclass of WWW::Myspace::MyBase.pm, so the
new method inherits options processing.
- Added logout method.
- Made "site_login" method public.
- Started changes to not require login for functions that don't need it.
- Added account_name and password accessor methods.
- Updated docs and reviewed code for proper Mech usage (needs more).

0.38 2006-03-28
- Removed extra "&"s from end of URLs in get_friends routines.
- get_friends methods (friends_from_profile, etc) will display
a warning if it encounters a page with no friendIDs.
- get_friends methods will display a warning if the friend count
is off of myspace's friend count by more than 5% when getting
friends from another user's profile (already did this when
getting our friends).
- get_friends methods will display a warning and return if they
fail to get a page.
- Enhanced get_friends sample script
- Fixed bug that was making get_page fail too easily.
- Added version 0.02 of FriendAdder.pm to the distribution
- FriendAdder.pm is now (mostly) documented
- FriendAdder->friend_request() renamed to
FriendAdder->send_friend_requests()
- Added convenience method FriendAdder->add_to_friends() for
FriendAdder->send_friend_requests()
- Added version 0.01 of Myspace::Data.pm to the distribution
- Added test 09-data.t for Myspace::Data
- Added test 10-mybase.t for MyBase.pm
- FriendAdder.pm now uses MyBase.pm as a base class
- Added MyBase.pm to dist (for internal modules to use).
- Fixed bug in message_group - docs said to add "delay: 0"
to the config file to stop it from sleeping. Correct setting
is "delay_time: 0". Fixed docs, and made "delay: 0" work
also so it'll work as expected for people with old config files.
- Removed dependency on IO::All in approve_friends, message_group,
and Message.pm (no longer required in the distribution, removed
from Makefile.PL also).
- Updated output in approve_friends to display result of commenting
(DONE, CAPTCHA, COUNTER). DONE means you've commented all your
friends.
- send_friend_request now checks to make sure there's a button
before posting to avoid:
"Can't call method "click" on an undefined value at
/usr/local/ActivePerl-5.8/lib/site_perl/5.8.7/WWW/Mechanize.pm
line 1345."
- send_friend_request now returns FN if a known error page is returned
even after the multiple attempts get_page makes at retreiving the
page. Before it could cause the error above also.
- Fixed a bug in which get_friends would produce a "use of
unitialized value" error if called with no arguments.
- Updated VERIFY_COMMENT_POST due to change in myspace.com profile
page display.
- Added eval around the "click" in submit_form to prevent the error
above from all methods. Failed form load will now just fail,
not "die".
- Added RE checks to post_comment to strengthen initial load.
Helps overcome FN post errors due to network problems.
EARLIER VERSIONS WILL REPORT FALSE COMMENT POST FAILURES.
0.37 2006-03-22
- Added "We\'re doing some maintenance on the mail for certain users"
error message to errors array.
- Fixed and added example to friends_from_profile method's docs.
- if get_friends is called in a HASHREF context, it returns
a hash of info about each friend (currently just the page they're
on in the friends list).
- Added version 0.01 of FriendAdder.pm to the distribution
- Added 07-friend_adder test script
- Added cool_new_people method to Myspace.pm
- Added 08-cool_new_people test script
comment_myspace:
- Added -i flag to comment_myspace. Causes comment_myspace to ignore
duplicates when posting comments.
- Added -r flag to comment_myspace. Reset the exclusions file before
running.
0.36 2006-03-22 - maintenance release, replaces 0.35.
- Removed signature code - was breaking install.
0.35 2006-03-15
- Added inbox method. Returns the contents of your inbox complete
with sender, messageID, subject, and status (read, unread, sent,
replied).
- Removed commented-out libraries deprecated in version 0.34.
- Added get_inbox sample script.
- submit_form now properly returns a failure code if it can't
load the form, instead of letting WWW::Mechanize choke on it.
This hopefully fixes bug#18232, where post_comments can fail
with no such field 'f_comments' at /.../WWW/Mechanize.pm line 1178.
0.34 2006-03-14
- Switched to use WWW::Mechanize
- Removed dependency on HTTP::Request::Form
- Fixes "Use of initialized value" errors when sending
friend requests.
- Removed cookie_jar method. Cookies stored in memory only.
- Moved login functions to more logical location in the code.
- Fixed some docs typos.
- logged_in will return false if my_friend_id couldn't be set for
some reason.
- If already_commented can't load the page, or if my_friend_id
isn't set, it will return a false "true" value and set
$myspace->error to a message describing the problem.
- Added mortality to all "scripts" - if login fails, the script
will die with "Login Failed". This prevents continuing with
unpredictable results.
0.33 2006-03-10
- Added signature code to Makefile.PL
- Added sample code to logged_in method to keep trying forever
until logged in.
- Added sample_scripts directory to MANIFEST
- Converted tabs into spaces in Changes file.
- Applied patch in bug#18055 to fix send_friend_request. Now
properly returns status code instead of status description
when called in a list context.
- Added dependency for Contextual::Return to Makefile.PL
(used in above bug fix).
- Added is_band method. Returns true if the profile is a band profile.
- Added code to send_friend_request to return "FB" if the
friend we're trying to add doens't accept friend requests from
bands, and the account we're sending from is a band.
- Added is_band tests to 01-login.t.
- Debugged response codes in send_friend_requests. The method
returned mostly FN and F before, codes are accurate now.
- Added "error" method and removed page-load warnings. They
are returned in "error" now and can be displayed by your script if
desired. See docs for "error" method.
- Added code to friend_request to return "FA" (Short for
Failed, Anonomyous adds rejected) if the user requires
a last name or email address to add them.
add_friends:
- Added add_friends to Makefile.PL so it'll actually install.
- add_friends will now die if it can't log in.
- Converted tabs into spaces in code.
- Fixed redundant status_codes code.
- Debugged CAPTCHA prompt
- Updated text.
0.32 2006-03-08
- Added add_friends script to the distribution. Simple script to
help send friend requests to friends list of another profile.
- Updated comment test script to skip post_all test if CAPTCHA
encountered.
- Corrected docs for comment_friends method.
- Corrected potential bug in approve_friend_requests which could
cause duplicate comments.
- Added CAPTCHA check to new friend commenting in
approve_friend_requests so it will not try to post any more
comments after receiving a CAPTCHA response.
- You can now check $myspace->captcha after runing
approve_friend_requests to see if it hit a CAPTCHA response or not.
- Updated approve test to skip comment testing if CAPTCHA was
encountered to prevent unnecessary test failures.
- Fixed Tom's ID in docs (it's 6221, not 6229). Note that it
-was- correct in the code, just not in the docs.
- Fixed test script bug that would cause friends_from_profile
method test to fail.
Comment.pm:
- post_all method now returns CAPTCHA, COUNTER, or DONE like
post_comments. (Only useful when delay = 0).
0.31 2006-03-06
- Added reply_message method. Not tested.
- Added friends_from_profile method which returns a list of
one or more other profile's friends.
- Updated login test script to work like the others,
added tests for friend_from_profile method.
- send_friend_request:
- Applied patch from Olaf Alders to return human-readable
status codes. Added his CAPTCHA-handling sample code
to docs.
Message.pm:
- send_all method now returns a response code (fixes a bug
in message_group in which it would say "Stopped due to "
instead of specifying why it had stopped).
- approve_friends:
- Added "-gc message" argument. If used, approve_friends, after
approving and commenting new friend requests, will leave
"message" as a comment for existing friends.
0.30 2006-03-05
- Added read_message method to Myspace.pm
- Added tests for read_message
- Moved Message.pm testing to 05-message.t
- Renamed approve.t 04-approve.t
- Renamed comment.t 05-comment.
- Changed verification RE for get_profile so that
profiles marked as "private" won't produce "Page doesn't
match verification pattern." warnings.
- Fixed bug#17999: Can't modify non-lvalue subroutine call.
(When post_comment would return an FC response, the module
would produce an error).
0.29 2006-02-27
message_group:
- Now accepts a reference to a list of groups or a single group.
0.28 2006-02-26
- Fixed a bug in post_comment that would cause comments with
multiple lines to display "<br>" tags when posted to pages that
don't allow HTML comments.
- Made same change in send_message, which makes no difference
in MacOS X, but might on other platforms that interpret "\n"
differently. Should be "safer".
- Updated test scripts to post multi-line messages.
0.27 2006-02-24
- Added "An error has occurred trying to send this message" error RE.
message_group:
- Now displays the reason it stopped (CAPTCHA, USAGE, COUNTER, or DONE).
0.26 2006-02-20
- Included approve_friends, message_group, and comment scripts
in distribution.
- Added browse method, but not yet functional. If you want to
help debug, please do. Otherwise, don't use it yet.
- Added CAPTCHA handling (alpha stage):
- post_comment sets $myspace->captcha and returns FC
- Call post_comment with ID, message, captcha response to
continue.
Note: Using this is a bit tricky, needs better examples.
- Fixed "t/02-dual.........Can't open test config file
readline() on closed filehandle CONFIG at t/TestConfig.pm
line 50." error in test.
- CHANGED submit_friend_request. This implements feature request
17587, but IS NOT BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE. It will DIE if you call
it with more than one friend, so that it can tell you to update
your code. Now returns a status code like post_comment instead
of a true/false value.
- Added submit_friend_requests method for multiple adds (but see
docs for a better example).
0.25 2006-02-20
- Added debugging code.
- Updated URLs for get_friends sub-methods. Versions before
this one will not return all friends.
- Added warning if friend_count and number of friends returned
by get_friends differs by more than 10 friends or 5% of
friend_count.
- Added page verification RE to get_friends to help ensure all
friends are accounted for.
0.24 2006-02-19
- Added logged_in method. Returns true if login was successful.
- Added login failure tests to test scripts.
- Updated for changes in myspace.com. These fix install test
errors and the get_friends method (whose URL relies on
friend_count) as well.
- user_name now gets name from "Hello, <name>!" line.
- Included test for optional "<span>" in friend_count.
PREVIOUS VERSION WILL FAIL INSTALL TESTS AND get_friends,
user_name, AND friend_count METHODS (and possibly others)
WILL NOT WORK.
0.23 2006-02-11
- Added "profile undergoing routine maintenance" error RE to
list of error pages.
- Added add_to_friends convenience method.
- Updated URL for inbox friends check. Fixes friends_who_emailed
method and tests so install works.
- Updated $SEND_MESSAGE_FORM URL. Fixes mail sending and tests.
- Fixed POD for add_to_friends.
PREVIOUS VERSIONS WILL FAIL INSTALL TESTS AND CAN'T SEND
MESSAGES.

- Fixed condition in 03-delete.t in which test would fail if
Perl 2 was not in friend list.
- Added code to check for "unexpected error" page.

- Updated URLs in send_friend_request, delete_friends,
post_comment to use new myspace URLs.
- Added flag to send_message to have it attach an "Add to Friends"
button. This is mostly to save people having to update their
message files manually if the code for this changes again.
- Fixed delete_friends method, broken by myspace change.
- Numerous other changes and bug fixes from extensive changes at
Myspace.com.
- Reinforcement of test script items so that tests should pass,
so that end-user installations can include auto-update code
without forcing install.
Message.pm (0.8):
- Added add_to_friends method which adds an "Add to friends"
button after the message if set to true.
If you include an "add to friends" button in your messages,
YOU SHOULD UPDATE YOUR CODE TO USE THIS METHOD instead.
PREVIOUS VERSIONS WILL ENCOUNTER MANY ERRORS:
Posting comments, deleting friends, sending friend requests.
Install tests will fail.
0.20 2006-02-04

/path/to/WWW/Myspace/Comment.pm line 124, <STDIN> line 2.
if post_comments was called without any friends.
(RT Bug 17379: http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=17379).
- Added test for defaults to comment.t
