6 Net::DAVTalk - Interface to talk to DAV servers
7
9 Version 0.22
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 Example:
17 use Net::DAVTalk;
19 use XML::Spice;
20 my $davtalk = Net::DAVTalk->new(
22 url => "https://dav.example.com/",
23 user => "foo\@example.com",
24 password => "letmein",
25 headers => { Cookie => "123", Referer => "456" },
26 );
27 $davtalk->Request(
29 'MKCALENDAR',
30 "$calendarId/",
31 x('C:mkcalendar', $Self->NS(),
32 x('D:set',
33 x('D:prop', @Properties),
34 ),
35 ),
36 );
37 $davtalk->Request(
39 'DELETE',
40 "$calendarId/",
41 );
42
44 $class->new(%Options)
45 Options:
46 url: either full https?:// url, or relative base path on the
48 server to the DAV endpoint
49 host, scheme and port: alternative to using full URL.
51 If URL doesn't start with https?:// then these will be used to
52 construct the endpoint URI.
53 expandurl and wellknown: if these are set, then the wellknown
55 name (caldav and carddav are both defined) will be used to
56 resolve /.well-known/$wellknown to find the current-user-principal
57 URI, and then THAT will be resovlved to find the $wellknown-home-set
58 URI, which will be used as the URL for all further actions on
59 this object.
60 user and password: if these are set, perform basic authentication.
62 user and access_token: if these are set, perform Bearer (OAUTH2)
63 authentication.
64 headers: a hashref of additional headers to add to every request
66 my $ua = $Self->ua(); =head2 $Self->ua($setua);
68 Get or set the useragent (HTTP::Tiny or compatible) that will be used
69 to make the requests:
70 e.g.
72 my $ua = $Self->ua();
74 $Self->ua(HTTP::Tiny->new(agent => "MyAgent/1.0", timeout => 5));
76 $Self->SetURL($url)
78 Change the endpoint URL for an existing connection.
79 $Self->SetPrincipalURL($url)
81 Set the URL to the DAV Principal
82 $Self->fullpath($shortpath)
84 Convert from a relative path to a full path:
85 e.g
87 my $path = $Dav->fullpath('Default');
88 ## /dav/calendars/user/foo/Default
89 NOTE: a you can pass a non-relative full path (leading /) to this
91 function and it will be returned unchanged.
92 $Self->shortpath($fullpath)
94 Convert from a full path to a relative path
95 e.g
97 my $path = $Dav->fullpath('/dav/calendars/user/foo/Default');
98 ## Default
99 NOTE: if the full path is outside the basepath of the object, it will
101 be unchanged.
102 my $path = $Dav->fullpath('/dav/calendars/user/bar/Default');
104 ## /dav/calendars/user/bar/Default
105 $Self->Request($method, $path, $content, %headers)
107 The whole point of the module! Perform a DAV request against the
108 endpoint, returning the response as a parsed hash.
109 method: http method, i.e. GET, PROPFIND, MKCOL, DELETE, etc
111 path: relative to base url. With a leading slash, relative to
113 server root, i.e. "Default/", "/dav/calendars/user/foo/Default".
114 content: if the method takes a body, raw bytes to send
116 headers: additional headers to add to request, i.e (Depth => 1)
118 $Self->GetProps($Path, @Props)
120 perform a propfind on a particular path and get the properties back
121 $Self->GetPropsArray($Path, @Props)
123 perform a propfind on a particular path and get the properties back as
124 an array of one or more items
125 $Self->GetCurrentUserPrincipal() =head2
127 $class->GetCurrentUserPrincipal(%Args)
128 Can be called with the same args as new() as a class method, or on an
129 existing object. Either way it will use the .well-known URI to find
130 the path to the current-user-principal.
131 Returns a string with the path.
133 $Self->GetHomeSet =head2 $class->GetHomeSet(%Args)
135 Can be called with the same args as new() as a class method, or on an
136 existing object. Either way it assumes that the created object has a
137 'url' parameter pointing at the current user principal URL (see
138 GetCurrentUserPrincipal above)
139 Returns a string with the path to the home set.
141 $Self->genuuid()
143 Helper to generate a uuid string. Returns a UUID, e.g.
144 my $uuid = $DAVTalk->genuuid(); # 9b9d68af-ad13-46b8-b7ab-30ab70da14ac
146 $Self->auth_header()
148 Generate the authentication header to use on requests:
149 e.g:
151 $Headers{'Authorization'} = $Self->auth_header();
153 $Self->request_url()
155 Generate the authentication header to use on requests:
156 e.g:
158 $Headers{'Authorization'} = $Self->auth_header();
160 $Self->NS()
162 Returns a hashref of the 'xmlns:shortname' => 'full namespace' items
163 for use in XML::Spice body generation, e.g.
164 $DAVTalk->Request(
166 'MKCALENDAR',
167 "$calendarId/",
168 x('C:mkcalendar', $Self->NS(),
169 x('D:set',
170 x('D:prop', @Properties),
171 ),
172 ),
173 );
174 # { 'xmlns:C' => 'urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav', 'xmlns:D' => 'DAV:' }
176 $Self->ns($key, $value)
178 Get or set namespace aliases, e.g
179 $Self->ns(C => 'urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav');
181 my $NS_C = $Self->ns('C'); # urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav
