HTTP user agent programming interface unification layer
HTTPAnyUA provides a small wrapper for unifying the programming interfaces of several different actual user agents HTTP clients under one familiar interface.
Rather than providing yet another programming interface for you to learn, HTTPAnyUA follows the HTTPTiny interface. This also means that you can plug in any supported HTTP client LWPUserAgent, Furl, etc. and use it as if it were HTTPTiny.
Unfortunately, many modules on CPAN are hardcoded to work with specific HTTP clients, leaving the end user unable to use the HTTP client that would be best for them. Although the end user won’t – or at least doesn’t need to – use HTTPAnyUA directly, they will benefit from client choice if their third-party modules use HTTPAnyUA or something like it.
The primary goal of HTTPAnyUA is to make it easy for module developers to write HTTP code once that can work with any HTTP client the end user may decide to plug in. A secondary goal is to make it easy for anyone to add support for new or yet-unsupported user agents.
