# GET request with Accept header
my $t = Mojo::UserAgent::Transactor−>new;
say $t−>tx(GET => 'http://example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'})−>req−>to_string;
# POST request with form−data

DESCRIPTION

Mojo::UserAgent::Transactor is the transaction building and manipulation framework used by Mojo::UserAgent.

GENERATORS

These content generators are available by default.

form

$t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => form => {a => 'b'});

Generate query string, "application/x−www−form−urlencoded" or "multipart/form−data" content. See "tx" for more.

json

$t−>tx(PATCH => 'http://example.com' => json => {a => 'b'});

Generate JSON content with Mojo::JSON. See "tx" for more.

multipart

$t−>tx(PUT => 'http://example.com' => multipart => ['Hello', 'World!']);

Generate multipart content. See "tx" for more.

ATTRIBUTES

Mojo::UserAgent::Transactor implements the following attributes.

compressed

my $bool = $t−>compressed;
$t = $t−>compressed($bool);

Try to negotiate compression for the response content and decompress it automatically, defaults to the value of the "MOJO_GZIP" environment variable or true.

generators

my $generators = $t−>generators;
$t = $t−>generators({foo => sub {...}});

Registered content generators, by default only "form", "json" and "multipart" are already defined.

name

my $name = $t−>name;
$t = $t−>name('Mojolicious');

Value for "User−Agent" request header of generated transactions, defaults to "Mojolicious (Perl)".

METHODS

Mojo::UserAgent::Transactor inherits all methods from Mojo::Base and implements the following new ones.

add_generator

$t = $t−>add_generator(foo => sub {...});

Register a content generator.

$t−>add_generator(foo => sub ($t, $tx, @args) {...});

endpoint

my ($proto, $host, $port) = $t−>endpoint(Mojo::Transaction::HTTP−>new);

Actual endpoint for transaction.

peer

my ($proto, $host, $port) = $t−>peer(Mojo::Transaction::HTTP−>new);

Actual peer for transaction.

promisify

$t−>promisify(Mojo::Promise−>new, Mojo::Transaction::HTTP−>new);

Resolve or reject Mojo::Promise object with Mojo::Transaction::HTTP object.

proxy_connect

my $tx = $t−>proxy_connect(Mojo::Transaction::HTTP−>new);

Build Mojo::Transaction::HTTP proxy "CONNECT" request for transaction if possible.

redirect

my $tx = $t−>redirect(Mojo::Transaction::HTTP−>new);

Build Mojo::Transaction::HTTP follow-up request for 301, 302, 303, 307 or 308 redirect response if possible.

tx

my $tx = $t−>tx(GET => 'example.com');
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com');
my $tx = $t−>tx(GET => 'http://example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'});
my $tx = $t−>tx(PUT => 'http://example.com' => 'Content!');
my $tx = $t−>tx(PUT => 'http://example.com' => form => {a => 'b'});
my $tx = $t−>tx(PUT => 'http://example.com' => json => {a => 'b'});
my $tx = $t−>tx(PUT => 'https://example.com' => multipart => ['a', 'b']);
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'} => 'Content!');
my $tx = $t−>tx(PUT => 'example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'} => form => {a => 'b'});
my $tx = $t−>tx(PUT => 'example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'} => json => {a => 'b'});
my $tx = $t−>tx(PUT => 'example.com' => {Accept => '*/*'} => multipart => ['a', 'b']);

Versatile general purpose Mojo::Transaction::HTTP transaction builder for requests, with support for "GENERATORS".

# Generate and inspect custom GET request with DNT header and content
say $t−>tx(GET => 'example.com' => {DNT => 1} => 'Bye!')−>req−>to_string;
# Stream response content to STDOUT
my $tx = $t−>tx(GET => 'http://example.com');
$tx−>res−>content−>unsubscribe('read')−>on(read => sub { say $_[1] });
# PUT request with content streamed from file
my $tx = $t−>tx(PUT => 'http://example.com');
$tx−>req−>content−>asset(Mojo::Asset::File−>new(path => '/foo.txt'));

The "json" content generator uses Mojo::JSON for encoding and sets the content type to "application/json".

# POST request with "application/json" content
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => json => {a => 'b', c => [1, 2, 3]});

The "form" content generator will automatically use query parameters for "GET" and "HEAD" requests.

# GET request with query parameters
my $tx = $t−>tx(GET => 'http://example.com' => form => {a => 'b'});

For all other request methods the "application/x−www−form−urlencoded" content type is used.

# POST request with "application/x−www−form−urlencoded" content
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => form => {a => 'b', c => 'd'});

Parameters may be encoded with the "charset" option.

# PUT request with Shift_JIS encoded form values
my $tx = $t−>tx(PUT => 'example.com' => form => {a => 'b'} => charset => 'Shift_JIS');

An array reference can be used for multiple form values sharing the same name.

# POST request with form values sharing the same name
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => form => {a => ['b', 'c', 'd']});

A hash reference with a "content" or "file" value can be used to switch to the "multipart/form−data" content type for file uploads.

# POST request with "multipart/form−data" content
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => form => {mytext => {content => 'lala'}});
# POST request with multiple files sharing the same name
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => form => {mytext => [{content => 'first'}, {content => 'second'}]});

The "file" value should contain the path to the file you want to upload or an asset object, like Mojo::Asset::File or Mojo::Asset::Memory.

# POST request with upload streamed from file
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => form => {mytext => {file => '/foo.txt'}});
# POST request with upload streamed from asset
my $asset = Mojo::Asset::Memory−>new−>add_chunk('lalala');
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => form => {mytext => {file => $asset}});

A "filename" value will be generated automatically, but can also be set manually if necessary. All remaining values in the hash reference get merged into the "multipart/form−data" content as headers.

# POST request with form values and customized upload (filename and header)
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => form => {
a => 'b',
c => 'd',
mytext => {
content => 'lalala',
filename => 'foo.txt',
'Content−Type' => 'text/plain'
}
});

The "multipart/form−data" content type can also be enforced by setting the "Content−Type" header manually.

# Force "multipart/form−data"
my $headers = {'Content−Type' => 'multipart/form−data'};
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'example.com' => $headers => form => {a => 'b'});

The "multipart" content generator can be used to build custom multipart requests and does not set a content type.

# POST request with multipart content ("foo" and "bar")
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => multipart => ['foo', 'bar']);

Similar to the "form" content generator you can also pass hash references with "content" or "file" values, as well as headers.

# POST request with multipart content streamed from file
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => multipart => [{file => '/foo.txt'}]);
# PUT request with multipart content streamed from asset
my $headers = {'Content−Type' => 'multipart/custom'};
my $asset = Mojo::Asset::Memory−>new−>add_chunk('lalala');
my $tx = $t−>tx(PUT => 'http://example.com' => $headers => multipart => [{file => $asset}]);
# POST request with multipart content and custom headers
my $tx = $t−>tx(POST => 'http://example.com' => multipart => [
{
content => 'Hello',
'Content−Type' => 'text/plain',
'Content−Language' => 'en−US'
},
{
content => 'World!',
'Content−Type' => 'text/plain',
'Content−Language' => 'en−US'
}
]);

upgrade

my $tx = $t−>upgrade(Mojo::Transaction::HTTP−>new);

Build Mojo::Transaction::WebSocket follow-up transaction for WebSocket handshake if possible.

websocket

my $tx = $t−>websocket('ws://example.com');
my $tx = $t−>websocket('ws://example.com' => {DNT => 1} => ['v1.proto']);

Versatile Mojo::Transaction::HTTP transaction builder for WebSocket handshake requests.
