NAME

Net::Identica - A perl interface to the Identi.ca Twitter Compatible API

VERSION

version 4.01043

SYNOPSIS

  use Net::Identica;

  $nt = Net::Identica->new(username => $user, password => $passwd);

  $nt->update('Hello, Identica friends!');

DEPRECATED

This module is a backwards compatibility wrapper for applications that used Net::Identica packaged with "Net::Twitter" versions 2.12 and earlier. Instead, use Net::Twitter with the "identica" option to gain all of the new features and functionality (OAuth, Search, exceptions on error, etc.).

  use Net::Twitter;

  # A simple, backwards compatible replacement for Net::Identica
  my $identica = Net::Twitter->new(
      legacy   => 1,
      identica => 1,
      username => $username,
      password => $password,
  );

  # A more complex object with OAuth and some optional traits
  my $identica = Net::Twitter->new(
      traits => [qw/API::REST API::Search InflateObjects/],
      identica            => 1,
      consumer_key        => $consumer_key,
      consumer_secret     => $consumer_secret,
      access_token        => $token,
      access_token_secret => $token_secret,
  );
