NAME Net::Minecraft::Login - Basic implementation of the Minecraft Login Protocol. VERSION version 0.001000 DESCRIPTION This is a basic implementation of the Minecraft Login protocol as described at use Net::Minecraft::Login; my $ua = Net::Minecraft::Login->new(); my $result = $ua->login( user => 'Bob', password => 'secret', ); if( $result->isa('Net::Minecraft::LoginFailure') ){ die $result; } say "Login for user " . $result->user . " succeeded"; Note, it presently does no explict session stuff, only performs the basic HTTP Request and returns the response as an object. CONSTRUCTOR ARGUMENTS This second describes arguments that may be optionally passed to "->new()", but as of the time of this writing, none are explicitly required, and are offered only to give leverage to strange usecases ( and tests ) my $instance = Net::Minecraft::Login->new( user_agent => ... , http_headers => { ... }, http_engine => HTTP::Tiny->new(), login_server => 'https://somewhere.else.org/' version => 14, # IN THE FUTURE! ); user_agent The User Agent to self-describe over HTTP type : String default : "Net::Minecraft::Login/" . VERSION http_headers Standard Headers that will be injected in each request type : Hash[ string => string ] default : { 'Content-Type' => 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' } http_engine Low-Level HTTP Transfer Agent. type : Object[ =~ HTTP::Tiny ] default : An HTTP::Tiny instance. login_server HTTP Address to authenticate with. type : String default : https://login.minecraft.net/ version "Client" version. type : String default : 13 This field indicates the version of the "Launcher". Minecraft may at some future time produce an updated launcher, and indicate that this specified version is out of date. Mojang Minecraft Launchers will be required to download a newer version, and users of Net::Minecraft::Login will either a) Be required to update to a newer Net::Minecraft::Login that supports the newer version and changes that implies b) Assuming no Login Protocol Changes, only have to specify "version =>" either to the constructor, or as an argument to "login" METHODS login signature: { user => String , password => String, version? => String } return : Any( Net::Minecraft::LoginResult , Net::Minecraft::LoginFailure ) my $result = $nmcl->login( user => 'notch', password => 'jellybean', ); if( $result->isa('Net::Minecraft::LoginFailure') ){ say "$result"; } else { say "Logged in!"; } See "::LoginFailure" and "::LoginResult" ATTRIBUTES user_agent http_headers http_engine login_server version PRIVATE METHODS _do_request signature : ( String $base_uri, Hash[ String => String ] $parameters , Hash[ String => Any ] $config ) return : Hash[ String => String ] AUTHOR Kent Fredric COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2013 by Kent Fredric .
