NAME

PrankCall - call remote services and hang up without waiting for a response

SYNOPSIS

    my $prank = PrankCall->new(
        host => 'somewhere.beyond.the.sea',
        port => '10827',
        callback => sub {
          my $error = pop;
          # Callback called after service has been called
        }
    );

    $prank->get(path => '/', params => { 'bobby' => 'darin' }); # note, prank calls always succeed
    $prank->post(path => '/', body => { 'pizza' => 'hut' }); # note, prank calls always succeed

DESCRIPTION

Sometimes you just wanna call someone and hang up without waiting for them to say anything. PrankCall is your friend (but, oddly, also your nemesis).

METHODS

new( host => $str, [ port => $str], [ callback => $sub_ref] )

The constructor can take a number of paremeters, being the usual host/port. It can also accept a callback method which is called after the socket completes, if there was an error this will come back as a parameter.

get( path => $str, params => $hashref, [ request_obj => HTTP::Request ] )

Will perform a GET request, also accepts an optional HTTP::Request object.

post( path => $str, body => $hashref, [ request_obj => HTTP::Request ] )

Will perform a POST request, also accepts an optional HTTP::Request object.
