=head1 NAME

HTTP::Request::FromWget - create a HTTP::Request from a wget command line

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  my $req = HTTP::Request::FromWget->new(
      # Note - wget itself may not appear
      argv => ['https://example.com'],
  );

  my $req = HTTP::Request::FromWget->new(
      command => 'https://example.com',
  );

  my $req = HTTP::Request::FromWget->new(
      command_wget => 'wget -A mywget/1.0 https://example.com',
  );

  my @requests = HTTP::Request::FromWget->new(
      command_wget => 'wget -A mywget/1.0 https://example.com https://www.example.com',
  );
  # Send the requests
  for my $r (@requests) {
      $ua->request( $r->as_request )
  }

=head1 RATIONALE

C command lines are found everywhere in documentation. The Firefox
developer tools can also copy network requests as C command lines from
the network panel. This module enables converting these to Perl code.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 C<< ->new >>

  my $req = HTTP::Request::FromWget->new(
      # Note - wget itself may not appear
      argv => ['--user-agent', 'myscript/1.0', 'https://example.com'],
  );

  my $req = HTTP::Request::FromWget->new(
      # Note - wget itself may not appear
      command => '--user-agent myscript/1.0 https://example.com',
  );

The constructor returns one or more L objects
that encapsulate the parameters. If the command generates multiple requests,
they will be returned in list context. In scalar context, only the first request
will be returned.

  my $req = HTTP::Request::FromWget->new(
      command => '--post-file /etc/passwd https://example.com',
      read_files => 1,
  );

=head3 Options

=over 4

=item B

An arrayref of commands as could be given in C< @ARGV >.

=item B

A scalar in a command line, excluding the C command

=item B

A scalar in a command line, including the C command

=item B

Do read in the content of files specified with (for example)
C<< --data=@/etc/passwd >>. The default is to not read the contents of files
specified this way.

Contains the default headers added to every request

=head2 C<< @option_spec >>

Contains the L specification of the recognized command line
parameters.

The following C options are recognized but largely ignored:

=head1 LIVE DEMO

L

=head1 KNOWN DIFFERENCES

=head2 Incompatible cookie jar formats

Until somebody writes a robust Netscape cookie file parser and proper loading
and storage for L, this module will not be able to load and
save files in the format that wget uses.

=head2 Loading/saving cookie jars is the job of the UA

You're expected to instruct your UA to load/save cookie jars:

  use Path::Tiny;
  use HTTP::CookieJar::LWP;

  if( my $cookies = $r->cookie_jar ) {
      $ua->cookie_jar( HTTP::CookieJar::LWP->new()->load_cookies(
          path($cookies)->lines
      ));
  };

=head2 Different Content-Length for POST requests

=head2 Different delimiter for form data

The delimiter is built by L, and C uses a different
mechanism to come up with a unique data delimiter. This results in differences
in the raw body content and the C header.

=head1 MISSING FUNCTIONALITY

=over 4

=item *

File uploads / content from files

While file uploads and reading POST data from files are supported, the content
is slurped into memory completely. This can be problematic for large files
and little available memory.

=head1 SEE ALSO

L - for the inverse function

The module HTTP::Request::AsCurl likely also implements a much better version
of C<< ->as_curl >> than this module.
