20 This module provides a simple one-subroutine "named parameters" style
21 interface for creating URIs. Underneath the hood it uses "URI.pm",
22 though because of the simplified interface it may not support all
23 possible options for all types of URIs.
24
25 It was created for the common case where you simply want to have a
26 simple interface for creating syntactically correct URIs from known
27 components (like a path and query string). Doing this using the native
28 "URI.pm" interface is rather tedious, requiring a number of method
29 calls, which is particularly ugly when done inside a templating system
30 such as Mason or TT2.
31
33 This module provides two functions both of which are optionally
34 exportable:
35
36 uri( ... ) and uri_object( ... )
37 Both of these functions accept the same set of parameters, except for
38 one additional parameter allowed when calling "uri()".
39
40 The "uri()" function simply returns a string representing a
41 canonicalized URI based on the provided parameters. The "uri_object()"
42 function returns new a "URI.pm" object based on the given parameters.
43
44 These parameters are:
45
46 • scheme
47
48 The URI's scheme. This is optional, and if none is given you will
49 create a schemeless URI. This is useful if you want to create a URI
50 to a path on the same server (as is commonly done in "<a>" tags).
51
52 • host
53
54 • port
55
56 • path
57
58 The path can be either a string or an array reference.
59
60 If an array reference is passed each defined member of the array
61 will be joined by a single forward slash (/).
62
63 If you are building a host-less URI and want to include a leading
64 slash then make the first element of the array reference an empty
65 string ("q{}").
66
67 You can add a trailing slash by making the last element of the
68 array reference an empty string.
69
70 • username
71
72 • password
73
74 • fragment
75
76 All of these are optional strings which can be used to specify that
77 part of the URI.
78
79 • query
80
81 This should be a hash reference of query parameters. The values for
82 each key may be a scalar or array reference. Use an array reference
83 to provide multiple values for one key.
84
85 • query_separator
86
87 This option is can only be provided when calling "uri()". By
88 default, it is a semi-colon (;).
89
91 Please report any bugs or feature requests to
92 "bug-uri-fromhash@rt.cpan.org", or through the web interface at
93 <http://rt.cpan.org>. I will be notified, and then you'll
94 automatically be notified of progress on your bug as I make changes.
