lib/AMF/Connection.pm  view on Meta::CPAN

I was looking for a simple Perl module to automate data extraction from an existing Flash+Flex/AMS application, and I could not find a decent client implementation. So, this module was born based on available online documentation.

This module has been inspired to SabreAMF PHP implementation of AMF client libraries.

AMF::Connection is meant to provide a simple AMF library to write client applications for invocation of remote services as used by most flex/AIR RIAs. 

The module includes basic support for synchronous HTTP/S based RPC request-response access, where the client sends a request to the server to be processed and the server returns a response to the client containing the processing outcome. Data is sent...

AMF0 and AMF3 support is provided using the Storable::AMF module. While HTTP/S requestes to the AMF endpoint are carried out using the LWP::UserAgent module. The requests are sent using the HTTP POST method as AMF0 encoded data by default. AMF3 encod...

If encoding is set to AMF3 the Flex Messaging framework is used on returned responses content (I.e. objects casted to "flex.messaging.messages.AcknowledgeMessage" and "flex.messaging.messages.ErrorMessage" are returned).

Simple batch requests and responses is provided also.

See the sample usage synopsis above to start using the module.

 use Storable::AMF qw(new_date perl_date);
