Net::SA...ng::SOAP(3)

📦 version 0.85, in alpine 3.24

🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay bestie, this is the manual page for Net::SAML2::Binding::SOAP — from the User Contributed Perl Documentation — and it is literally the SOAP binding for SAML. Main character energy for a Perl module, no cap. 💅

💖 VERSION 💖

version 0.85 — that's the vibe check, periodt. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

Here's the group-chat screenshot of how you use it:

my $soap = Net::SAML2::Binding::SOAP->new(
    url      => $idp_url,
    key      => $key,
    cert     => $cert,
    idp_cert => $idp_cert,
);

my $response = $soap->request($req);

Heads up bestie: LWP::UserAgent maybe used, which means environment variables may affect the use of https — see:

🔥 METHODS 🔥

✨ new( ... ) ✨

Constructor, obviously. Returns an instance of the SOAP binding configured for the given IdP service url.

Arguments — collect them all, no skipping:

  • ua — (optional) a LWP::UserAgent-compatible UA. You can build the user agent to your liking when extending this class by overriding build_user_agent.
  • url — the service URL.
  • key — the key to sign with.
  • cert — the corresponding certificate.
  • idp_cert — the idp's signing certificate.
  • cacert — the CA for the SAML CoT.

🛠️ build_user_agent 🛠️

Builder for the user agent. It's giving builder energy — that's the description, bestie.

📨 request( $message ) 📨

Submit the message to the IdP's service.

Returns the Response, or dies if there was an error. No cap, it really dies. 💀

📥 handle_response( $response ) 📥

Handle a response from a remote system on the SOAP binding.

Accepts a string containing the complete SOAP response.

📤 handle_request( $request ) 📤

Handle a request from a remote system on the SOAP binding.

Accepts a string containing the complete SOAP request.

🎁 create_soap_envelope( $message ) 🎁

Signs and SOAP-wraps the given message. Iconic behavior. ✨
