Re^4: Paging with REST::Client?

In theory I could pass in the paging parameters and see what REST::Client does with it, but I was hoping it supported it so it could be transparent to me -- i.e. just keep puling in thew data behind the scenes for me. Otherwise, it's back to some ugly code to deal with it. Maybe I can handle it slightly better than my Curl based scripts, but it adds a lot of complexity to the code just to handle something that feels like it should be part of the feature set of the module (e.g. a ->next function, or the abiltiy to tell it to slurp everything in).

The "don't know" part -- I know the server side is handling the paging, but not sure what specifically is handling it (module in the web server, some process the WAPI calls are passed to, etc.).

I suggest you read REST to see what it actually is. Same for REST::Client The "don't know" part -- I know the server side is handling the paging, but not sure what specifically is handling it (module in the web server, some process the WAPI calls are passed to, etc.). Is that like, I know gas gets gas delivered, but I dont know which refinery or how its delivered exactly? That is a baffling response to being asked which gas station.	[reply]
