✨ NAME ✨

LWP::UserAgent::ProgressBar β€” it's an LWP user agent, bestie, but make it glow πŸ’… she shows you a progress bar while stuff downloads.

(also hi, this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, section 3pm, and the manpage name is LWP::U...ressBar(3pm) if you're out here grepping for it 🫢)


🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 1.100810 ⭐


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

okay so like, here's the whole vibe:

my $url = 'http://...';
my $response = LWP::UserAgent::ProgressBar->new->get_with_progress($url);
$response->is_success or die "couldn't get $url\n";
my $content = $response->content;

literally that's it. no cap. πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

This class is a subclass of LWP::UserAgent (yes she inherited the whole wardrobe πŸ‘‘) and she provides one additional method, described below. That's the whole flex. Iconic behaviour, honestly.


πŸ’œ METHODS πŸ’œ

get_with_progress

Takes the exact same arguments as LWP::UserAgent's "get()", but it overrides the ":content_cb" and ":read_size_hint" arguments. And while the download is happening? A progress bar is displayed. ✨ That's the moment. That's the main character energy.

post_with_progress

Same situation, different verb β€” takes the same arguments as LWP::UserAgent's "post()", but again overrides the ":content_cb" and ":read_size_hint" arguments. During download, a progress bar is displayed. πŸ“
