NAME

HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint - Stream Encoder for QuotedPrint Encoding

SYNOPSIS

    use HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint;
    my $s = HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint->new || 
        die( HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint->error, "\n" );
    $s->encode( $input => $output, eol => "\n" ) ||
        die( $s->error );
    $s->decode( $input => $output ) || die( $s->error );
    HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint::encode_qp( $input => $output, eol => "\n" ) ||
        die( $HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint::QuotedPrintError );
    HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint::decode_qp( $input => $output, eol => "\n" ) ||
        die( $HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint::QuotedPrintError );

VERSION

    v0.1.0

DESCRIPTION

This implements an encoding and decoding mechanism for quoted-printable encoding using either of the following on input and output:

filepath

If the parameter is neither a scalar reference nor a file handle, it will be assumed to be a file path.

file handle

This can be a native file handle, or an object oriented one as long as it implements the print or write, and read methods. The read method is expected to return the number of bytes read or undef upon error. The print and write methods are expected to simply return true upon success and undef upon error.

Alternatively, those methods can die and those exceptions wil be caught.

scalar reference

This can be a simple scalar reference, or an object scalar reference.

Requires the XS module MIME::QuotedPrint for encoding and decoding.

This encodes and decodes the quoted-printable data according to rfc2045, section 6.7

CONSTRUCTOR

new

Creates a new HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint object and returns it.

METHODS

decode

This takes 2 arguments: an input and an output. Each one can be either a file path, a file handle, or a scalar reference.

It will decode the quoted-printable encoded data and write the result into the output.

It returns true upon success and sets an error and return undef upon error.

encode

This takes 2 arguments: an input and an output. Each one can be either a file path, a file handle, or a scalar reference.

It will encode the data into quoted-printable encoded data and write the result into the output.

If the option eol (standing for "End of line") is provided, it will be used at the end of each line of 76 characters. If eol is not provided, it will default to $/, which usually is \n.

It returns true upon success and sets an error and return undef upon error.

CLASS FUNCTIONS

The following class functions are available and can also be exported, such as:

    use HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint qw( decode_qp encode_qp );

decode_qp

This takes the same 2 arguments used in "decode": an input and an output. Each one can be either a file path, a file handle, or a scalar reference.

It will decode the quoted-printable encoded data and write the result into the output.

It returns true upon success, and upon error, it will set the error in the global variable $QuotedPrintError and return undef

    my $decoded = HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint::decode_qp( $encoded );
    die( "Something went wrong: $HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint::QuotedPrintError\n" if( !defined( $decoded ) );
    print( "Decoded data is: $decoded\n" );

encode_qp

This takes the same 2 arguments used in "encode": an input and an output. Each one can be either a file path, a file handle, or a scalar reference.

It will encode the data into quoted-printable encoded data and write the result into the output.

It returns true upon success, and upon error, it will set the error in the global variable $QuotedPrintError and return undef

    my $encoded = HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint::encode_qp( $data );
    die( "Something went wrong: $HTTP::Promise::Stream::QuotedPrint::QuotedPrintError\n" if( !defined( $encoded ) );
    print( "Encoded data is: $encoded\n" );

encode_qp_utf8

This takes a string, encode it into an UTF-8 string using "encode_utf8" in Encode and then encode the resulting string into quoted-printable and returns the result.
