6 Net::DAVTalk - Interface to talk to DAV servers
7
9 Version 0.16
10
12 Net::DAVTalk is was originally designed as a service module for
13 Net::CalDAVTalk and Net::DAVTalk, abstracting the process of connecting
14 to a DAV server and parsing the XML responses.
15
16 Example:
17
18 use Net::DAVTalk;
19 use XML::Spice;
20
21 my $davtalk = Net::DAVTalk->new(
22 url => "https://dav.example.com/",
23 user => "foo\@example.com",
24 password => "letmein",
25 );
26
27 $davtalk->Request(
28 'MKCALENDAR',
29 "$calendarId/",
30 x('C:mkcalendar', $Self->NS(),
31 x('D:set',
32 x('D:prop', @Properties),
33 ),
34 ),
35 );
36
37 $davtalk->Request(
38 'DELETE',
39 "$calendarId/",
40 );
41
43 $class->new(%Options)
44 Options:
45
46 url: either full https?:// url, or relative base path on the
47 server to the DAV endpoint
48
49 host, scheme and port: alternative to using full URL.
50 If URL doesn't start with https?:// then these will be used to
51 construct the endpoint URI.
52
53 expandurl and wellknown: if these are set, then the wellknown
54 name (caldav and carddav are both defined) will be used to
55 resolve /.well-known/$wellknown to find the current-user-principal
56 URI, and then THAT will be resovlved to find the $wellknown-home-set
57 URI, which will be used as the URL for all further actions on
58 this object.
59
60 user and password: if these are set, perform basic authentication.
61 user and access_token: if these are set, perform Bearer (OAUTH2)
62 authentication.
63
64 $Self->SetURL($url)
65 Change the endpoint URL for an existing connection.
66
67 $Self->SetPrincipalURL($url)
68 Set the URL to the DAV Principal
69
70 $Self->fullpath($shortpath)
71 Convert from a relative path to a full path:
72
73 e.g
74 my $path = $Dav->fullpath('Default');
75 ## /dav/calendars/user/foo/Default
76
77 NOTE: a you can pass a non-relative full path (leading /) to this
78 function and it will be returned unchanged.
79
80 $Self->shortpath($fullpath)
81 Convert from a full path to a relative path
82
83 e.g
84 my $path = $Dav->fullpath('/dav/calendars/user/foo/Default');
85 ## Default
86
87 NOTE: if the full path is outside the basepath of the object, it will
88 be unchanged.
89
90 my $path = $Dav->fullpath('/dav/calendars/user/bar/Default');
91 ## /dav/calendars/user/bar/Default
92
93 $Self->Request($method, $path, $content, %headers)
94 The whole point of the module! Perform a DAV request against the
95 endpoint, returning the response as a parsed hash.
96
97 method: http method, i.e. GET, PROPFIND, MKCOL, DELETE, etc
98
99 path: relative to base url. With a leading slash, relative to
100 server root, i.e. "Default/", "/dav/calendars/user/foo/Default".
101
102 content: if the method takes a body, raw bytes to send
103
104 headers: additional headers to add to request, i.e (Depth => 1)
105
106 $Self->GetProps($Path, @Props)
107 perform a propfind on a particular path and get the properties back
108
109 $Self->GetPropsArray($Path, @Props)
110 perform a propfind on a particular path and get the properties back as
111 an array of one or more items
112
113 $Self->GetCurrentUserPrincipal() =head2
114 $class->GetCurrentUserPrincipal(%Args)
115 Can be called with the same args as new() as a class method, or on an
116 existing object. Either way it will use the .well-known URI to find
117 the path to the current-user-principal.
118
119 Returns a string with the path.
120
121 $Self->GetHomeSet =head2 $class->GetHomeSet(%Args)
122 Can be called with the same args as new() as a class method, or on an
123 existing object. Either way it assumes that the created object has a
124 'url' parameter pointing at the current user principal URL (see
125 GetCurrentUserPrincipal above)
126
127 Returns a string with the path to the home set.
128
129 $Self->genuuid()
130 Helper to generate a uuid string. Returns a UUID, e.g.
131
132 my $uuid = $DAVTalk->genuuid(); # 9b9d68af-ad13-46b8-b7ab-30ab70da14ac
133
134 $Self->auth_header()
135 Generate the authentication header to use on requests:
136
137 e.g:
138
139 $Headers{'Authorization'} = $Self->auth_header();
140
141 $Self->request_url()
142 Generate the authentication header to use on requests:
143
144 e.g:
145
146 $Headers{'Authorization'} = $Self->auth_header();
147
148 $Self->NS()
149 Returns a hashref of the 'xmlns:shortname' => 'full namespace' items
150 for use in XML::Spice body generation, e.g.
151
152 $DAVTalk->Request(
153 'MKCALENDAR',
154 "$calendarId/",
155 x('C:mkcalendar', $Self->NS(),
156 x('D:set',
157 x('D:prop', @Properties),
158 ),
159 ),
160 );
161
162 # { 'xmlns:C' => 'urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav', 'xmlns:D' => 'DAV:' }
163
164 $Self->ns($key, $value)
165 Get or set namespace aliases, e.g
166
167 $Self->ns(C => 'urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav');
168 my $NS_C = $Self->ns('C'); # urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav
