NAME

    Amazon::MWS - Perl interface to Amazon Marketplace Web Services

VERSION

    0.150

DESCRIPTION

    See Amazon::MWS::Client for the implementation of the low level Amazon
    MWS API.

    For the high level methods provided by the Amazon::MWS::Uploader you
    are going to need to supply database storage.

 Uploading products

    Basically you take the products which need to be uploaded to Amazon and
    create Amazon::MWS::XML::Product objects from them:

        use Amazon::MWS::XML::Product;
        use Amazon::MWS::Uploader;
        use Try::Tiny;
    
        my @upload;
    
        foreach my $product_object (@send_to_amazon) {
            my %prod = ....
    
            try {
                my $product = Amazon::MWS::XML::Product->new(%prod);
                push @upload, $product;
            } catch {
                warn "Failure with $prod{sku} : $_";
            };
         }

    Now you create an Amazon::MWS::XML::Uploader object and do the actual
    upload.

        my $uploader = Amazon::MWS::XML::Uploader->new(...);
    
        try {
            $uploader->products(\@upload);
            $uploader->upload;
        } catch {
            die "Uploader failure with: $_";
        };

    A product upload goes through the following steps:

    product

      Basic product data.

    inventory

      Product inventory count (required).

    price

      Product price (required).

    image

      Product images (required).

      Please note that only http:// links are allowed. If you pass https://
      links, they will be rejected by Amazon.

    variants

      Product variants (optional).

    You are not by any means finished with the upload, see "Resume
    uploads".

 Delete products

    Deleting products is much more straightforward, but you have still to
    care of tracking the upload process, see again "Resume uploads".

        my $uploader = Amazon::MWS::Uploader->new(...);
