=head1 NAME

HTTP::Async - process multiple HTTP requests in parallel without blocking.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

Create an object and add some requests to it:

    use HTTP::Async;
    my $async = HTTP::Async->new;

    # create some requests and add them to the queue.
    $async->add( HTTP::Request->new( GET => 'http://www.perl.org/'         ) );
    $async->add( HTTP::Request->new( GET => 'http://www.ecclestoad.co.uk/' ) );

and then EITHER process the responses as they come back:

    while ( my $response = $async->wait_for_next_response ) {
        # Do some processing with $response
    }

OR do something else if there is no response ready:

    while ( $async->not_empty ) {
        if ( my $response = $async->next_response ) {
            # deal with $response
        } else {
            # do something else
        }
    }

OR just use the async object to fetch stuff in the background and deal with
the responses at the end.

    # Do some long code...
    for ( 1 .. 100 ) {
      some_function();
      $async->poke;            # lets it check for incoming data.
    }

    while ( my $response = $async->wait_for_next_response ) {
        # Do some processing with $response
    }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Although using the conventional C is fast and easy it does
have some drawbacks - the code execution blocks until the request has been
completed and it is only possible to process one request at a time.
C attempts to address these limitations.

It gives you a 'Async' object that you can add requests to, and then get the
requests off as they finish. The actual sending and receiving of the requests
is abstracted. As soon as you add a request it is transmitted, if there are
too many requests in progress at the moment they are queued. There is no
concept of starting or stopping - it runs continuously.

Whilst it is waiting to receive data it returns control to the code that
called it meaning that you can carry out processing whilst fetching data from
the network. All without forking or threading - it is actually done using
C lists.

=head1 Default settings:

There are a number of default settings that should be suitable for most uses.
However in some circumstances you might wish to change these.

            slots:  20
          timeout:  180 (seconds)
 max_request_time:  300 (seconds)
    max_redirect:   7
    poll_interval:  0.05 (seconds)
       proxy_host:  ''
       proxy_port:  ''
       local_addr:  ''
       local_port:  ''
       ssl_options: {}
       cookie_jar:  undef
       peer_addr:   ''

If defined, is expected to be similar to C, with extract_cookies and add_cookie_header methods.

The option max_redirects has been renamed to max_redirect to be consistent with LWP::UserAgent, although max_redirects still works.


=head1 METHODS

=head2 new

    my $async = HTTP::Async->new( %args );

Creates a new HTTP::Async object and sets it up. Variations from the default
can be set by passing them in as C<%args>.

=head2 slots, timeout, max_request_time, poll_interval, max_redirect, proxy_host, proxy_port, local_addr, local_port, ssl_options, cookie_jar, peer_addr

    $old_value = $async->slots;
    $new_value = $async->slots( $new_value );

Get/setters for the C<$async> objects config settings. Timeout is for
inactivity and is in seconds.

Slots is the maximum number of parallel requests to make.

=head2 add

    my @ids      = $async->add(@requests);
    my $first_id = $async->add(@requests);

Adds requests to the queues. Each request is given an unique integer id (for
this C<$async>) that can be used to track the requests if needed. If called in
list context an array of ids is returned, in scalar context the id of the
first request added is returned.

=cut

sub add {

    foreach my $req (@_) {

    }

    return wantarray ? @returns : $returns[0];
}

=head2 add_with_opts

    my $id = $async->add_with_opts( $request, \%opts );

This method lets you add a single request to the queue with options that
differ from the defaults. For example you might wish to set a longer timeout
or to use a specific proxy. Returns the id of the request.

The method croaks when passed an invalid option.

=cut

sub add_with_opts {
    my $self = shift;
    my $req  = shift;

    $self->{id_opts}{$id} = $opts;
    $self->poke;

    return $id;
}

=head2 poke

    $async->poke;

At fairly frequent intervals some housekeeping needs to performed - such as
reading received data and starting new requests. Calling C lets the
object do this and then return quickly. Usually you will not need to use this
as most other methods do it for you.

You should use C if your code is spending time elsewhere (ie not using
the async object) to allow it to keep the data flowing over the network. If it
is not used then the buffers may fill up and completed responses will not be
replaced with new requests.

=cut

}

=head2 next_response

    my $response          = $async->next_response;
    my ( $response, $id ) = $async->next_response;

Returns the next response (as a L object) that is waiting, or
returns undef if there is none. In list context it returns a (response, id)
pair, or an empty list if none. Does not wait for a response so returns very
quickly.

=cut

sub next_response {
    my $self = shift;
    return $self->_next_response(0);

=head2 wait_for_next_response

    my $response          = $async->wait_for_next_response( 3.5 );
    my ( $response, $id ) = $async->wait_for_next_response( 3.5 );

As C but only returns if there is a next response or the time
in seconds passed in has elapsed. If no time is given then it blocks. Whilst
waiting it checks the queues every c seconds. The times can be
fractional seconds.

=cut

Returns the sum of the to_send_count, in_progress_count and to_return_count.

This should be the total number of items which have been added that have not yet been returned by next_response().

=head1 SEE ALSO

L - a polite form of this module. Slows the scraping down
by domain so that the remote server is not overloaded.

=head1 GOTCHAS

The responses may not come back in the same order as the requests were made.
For https requests to work, you must have L installed.

=head1 THANKS

Egor Egorov contributed patches for proxies, catching connections that die
before headers sent and more.

Tomohiro Ikebe from livedoor.jp submitted patches (and a test) to properly
handle 304 responses.

Naveed Massjouni for adding the https handling code.

Alex Balhatchet for adding the https + proxy handling code, and for making the
tests run ok in parallel.

Josef Toman for fixing two bugs, one related to header handling and another
related to producing an absolute URL correctly.

Github user 'c00ler-' for adding LocalAddr and LocalPort support.

rt.cpan.org user 'Florian (fschlich)' for typo in documentation.

Heikki Vatiainen for the ssl_options support patch.

Daniel Lintott of the Debian Perl Group for pointing out a test failure when
using a very recent version of HTTP::Server::Simple to implement
t/TestServer.pm

=head1 BUGS AND REPO
