    my $steem = Steemit::WsClient->new( url => 'https://some.steemit.d.node.address');

    say "Initialized Steemit::WsClient client with url ".$steem->url;

    #get the last 99 discussions with the tag utopian-io
    #truncate the body since we dont care here
    my $discussions = $steem->get_discussions_by_created({
          tag => 'utopian-io',
          limit => 99,
          truncate_body => 100,
    });

    #extract the author names out of the result
    my @author_names = map { $_->{author} } @$discussions;
    say "last 99 authors: ".join(", ", @author_names);

    #load the author details
    my $authors = $steem->get_accounts( [@author_names] );
    #say Dumper $authors->[0];

    #calculate the reputation average
    my $reputation_sum = 0;
    for my $author ( @$authors ){
       $reputation_sum += int( $author->{reputation} / 1000_000_000 );
    }

    say "Average reputation of the last 99 utopian authors: ". ( int( $reputation_sum / scalar(@$authors) )  / 100 );

get_discussions_by_xxxxxx

all those methods will sort the results differently and accept one query parameter with the values:

   {
      tag   => 'tagtosearch',   # optional
      limit => 1,               # max 100
      filter_tags => [],        # tags to filter out
      select_authors => [],     # only those authors
      truncate_body  => 0       # the number of bytes of the post body to return, 0 for all
      start_author   => ''      # used together with the start_permlink gor pagination
      start_permlink => ''      #
      parent_author  => ''      #
      parent_permlink => ''     #
   }

so one example on how to get 200 discussions would be

   my $discussions = $steem->get_discussions_by_created({
         limit => 100,
         truncate_body => 1,
   });

   my $discussion = $discussions[-1];

   push @$discussions, $steem->get_discussions_by_created({
         limit => 100,
         truncate_body => 1,
         start_author   => $discussion->{author},
         start_permlink => $discussion->{permlink},
   });

vote

this requires you to initialize the module with your private posting key like this:

   my $steem = Steemit::WsClient->new(
      posting_key => 'copy this one from the steemit site',

   );

   $steem->vote($discussion,$weight)

weight is optional default is 10000 wich equals to 100%

comment

this requires you to initialize the module with your private posting key like this:

   my $steem = Steemit::WsClient->new(
      posting_key => 'copy this one from the steemit site',

   );

   $steem->comment(
         "parent_author"   => $parent_author,
         "parent_permlink" => $parent_permlink,
         "author"          => $author,
         "permlink"        => $permlink,
         "title"           => $title,
         "body"            => $body,
         "json_metadata"   => $json_metadata,
   )

you need at least a permlink and body fill the parent parameters to comment on an existing post json metadata can be already a json string or a perl hash

delete_comment

   $steem->delete_comment(
      author => $author,
      permlink => $permlink
   )

you need the permlink author will be filled with the user of your posting key if missing
