NAME
WebService::Google::Suggest - Google Suggest as an API
SYNOPSIS
use WebService::Google::Suggest;
my $suggest = WebService::Google::Suggest->new();
my @suggestions = $suggest->complete("goog");
for my $suggestion (@suggestions) {
print "$suggestion->{query}: $suggestion->{results} results\n";
}
DESCRIPTION
WebService::Google::Suggest allows you to use Google Suggest as a Web
Service API to retrieve completions to your search query or partial
query. This module is based on Adam Stiles' hack
(http://www.adamstiles.com/adam/2004/12/hacking_google_.html).
METHODS
new
$suggest = WebService::Google::Suggest->new();
Creates new WebService::Google::Suggest object.
complete
@suggestions = $suggest->complete($query);
Sends your $query to Google web server and fetches suggestions for
the query. Suggestions are in a list of hashrefs, for example with
query "Google":
@suggestions = (
{ query => "google", results => 122000000 },
{ query => "google toolbar", results => 2620000 },
...
);
Note that "results" value does NOT contain commas and "results"
text.
ua
$ua = $suggest->ua;
Returns underlying LWP::UserAgent object. It allows you to change
User-Agent (Windows IE by default), timeout seconds and various
properties.
