NAME

Net::EPP::ResponseCodes - a module to export some constants that correspond to EPP response codes

SYNOPSIS

        use Net::EPP::ResponseCodes;
        use Net::EPP::Simple;
        use strict;

        my $epp = Net::EPP::Simple->new(
                host    => 'epp.nic.tld',
                user    => 'my-id',
                pass    => 'my-password',
        );

        my $result = $epp->domain_transfer_request('example.tld', 'foobar', 1);

        if ($result) {
                print "Transfer initiated OK\n";

        } else {
                if ($Net::EPP::Simple::Code == OBJECT_PENDING_TRANSFER) {
                        print "Error: domain is already pending transfer\n";

                } elsif ($Net::EPP::Simple::Code == INVALID_AUTH_INFO) {
                        print "Error: invalid authcode provided\n";

                } elsif ($Net::EPP::Simple::Code == OBJECT_DOES_NOT_EXIST) {
                        print "Error: domain not found\n";

                } elsif ($Net::EPP::Simple::Code == STATUS_PROHIBITS_OP) {
                        print "Error: domain cannot be transferred\n";

                } else {
                        print "Error code $Net::EPP::Simple::Code\n";

DESCRIPTION

EPP is the Extensible Provisioning Protocol. EPP (defined in RFC 4930) is an application layer client-server protocol for the provisioning and management of objects stored in a shared central repository. Specified in XML, the protocol defines generic object management operations and an extensible framework that maps protocol operations to objects. As of writing, its only well-developed application is the provisioning of Internet domain names, hosts, and related contact details.

Every response sent to the client by an EPP server contains a "<result>" element that has a "code" attribute. This is a four-digit numeric code that describes the result of the request. This module exports a set of constants that provide handy mnemonics for each of the defined codes.
