NAME
Net::Fastly - client library for interacting with the Fastly web
acceleration service
SYNOPSIS
use Net::Fastly;
# username/password authentication is deprecated and will not be available
# starting September 2020; use {api_key: 'your-key'} as the login option
my $fastly = Net::Fastly->new(%login_opts);
my $current_user = $fastly->current_user;
my $current_customer = $fastly->current_customer;
my $user = $fastly->get_user($current_user->id);
my $customer = $fastly->get_customer($current_customer->id);
print "Name: ".$user->name."\n";
print "Works for ".$user->customer->name."\n";
print "Which is the same as ".$customer->name."\n";
print "Which has the owner ".$customer->owner->name."\n";
# Let's see which services we have defined
foreach my $service ($fastly->list_services) {
print $service->name." (".$service->id.")\n";
foreach my $version ($service->versions) {
print "\t".$version->number."\n";
}
}
my $service = $fastly->create_service(name => "MyFirstService");
my $latest_version = $service->version;
# Create a domain and a backend for the service ...
my $domain = $fastly->create_domain(service_id => $service->id, version => $latest_version->number, name => "www.example.com");
my $backend = $fastly->create_backend(service_id => $service->id, version => $latest_version->number, ipv4 => "127.0.0.1", port => 80);
# ... and activate it. You're now hosted on Fastly.
$latest_version->activate;
# Let's take a peek at the VCL that Fastly generated for us
my $vcl = $latest_version->generated_vcl;
print "Generated VCL file is:\n".$vcl->content."\n";
# Now let's create a new version ...
my $new_version = $latest_version->clone;
# ... add a new backend ...
my $new_backend = $fastly->create_backend(service_id => $service->id, version => $new_version->number, ipv4 => "192.0.0.1", port => 8080);
# ... and upload some custome vcl (presuming we have permissions)
$new_version->upload_vcl($vcl_name, slurp($vcl_file));
$new_version->activate;
# Purging
$fastly->purge('http://www.example.com'); # regular purge
$fastly->purge('http://www.example.com', 1); # 'soft' purge (see note below)
$service->purge_by_key('article-1'); # purge by surrogate key, note this works on $service
$service->purge_by_key('article-1', 1); # 'soft' purge by surrogate key
$service->purge_all; # use with caution!
DESCRIPTION
A Note About Authentication
Authenticating with a username/password is deprecated and will no
longer be available starting September 2020.
Authenticating with an API Token is shown in the example synopsis
below. For more information on API Tokens, please see [Fastly's API
Token documentation](https://developer.fastly.com/reference/api/auth/).
For more information about authenticating to our API, please see our
[Authentication
section](https://developer.fastly.com/reference/api/#authentication).
METHODS
new <opt[s]>
Create a new Fastly client. Options are
user - your Fastly login
password - your Fastly password
api_key - your Fastly api key
You only need to pass in api_key OR user and password.
Some methods require full username and password rather than just auth
token.
client
Get the current Net::Fastly::Client
set_customer <customer id>
Set the current customer to act as.
NOTE: this will only work if you're an admin
authed
Whether or not we're authed at all by either username & password or API
key
fully_authed
Whether or not we're fully (username and password) authed
current_user
Return a User object representing the current logged in user.
This will not work if you're logged in with an API key.
current_customer
Return a Customer object representing the customer of the current
logged in user.
commands
Return a hash representing all commands available.
Useful for information.
purge <path> [soft]
Purge the specified path from your cache.
You can optionally pass in a true value to enable "soft" purging e.g
$fastly->purge($url, 1);
See https://docs.fastly.com/guides/purging/soft-purges
Previously purging made an API call to the /purge endpoint of the
Fastly API.
The new method of purging is done by making an HTTP request against the
URL using the PURGE HTTP method.
This module now uses the new method. The old method can be used by
passing the use_old_purge_method into the constructor.
my $fastly = Net::Fastly->new(%login_opts, use_old_purge_method => 1);
stats [opt[s]]
Fetches historical stats for each of your fastly services and groups
the results by service id.
If you pass in a field opt then fetches only the specified field.
If you pass in a service opt then fetches only the specified service.
The field and service opts can be combined.
If you pass in an aggregate flag then fetches historical stats
information aggregated across all of your Fastly services. This cannot
be combined with field and service.
Other options available are:
from & to
by
region
See http://docs.fastly.com/docs/stats for details.
usage [opt[s]]
Returns usage information aggregated across all Fastly services and
grouped by region.
If the by_service flag is passed then teturns usage information
aggregated by service and grouped by service & region.
Other options available are:
from & to
by
region
See http://docs.fastly.com/docs/stats for details.
regions
Fetches the list of codes for regions that are covered by the Fastly
CDN service.
