in reply to Help me convert this to Perl

Well, normally this isn't a code writing service, but if it helps Perl programmers, I guess it's for a good cause ;-) Will this documentation be public somewhere?

If I understood the C# code correctly, here's one way to do it with HTTP::Tiny and URI (for SSL support, IO::Socket::SSL and Net::SSLeay need to be installed too):

#!/usr/bin/env perl use warnings; use strict; use URI; use HTTP::Tiny; my $uri = URI->new('https://api.zerobounce.net/v1/validate'); $uri->query_form( apikey => 'Your Secret Key', email => 'example@example.com', #ipaddress => '99.123.12.122', ); my $response = HTTP::Tiny->new->get( $uri, { timeout=>15 } ); # in seconds die "Failed! $response->{status} $response->{reason}\n" unless $response->{success}; my $responseString = $response->{content};
an online Perl compiler that allows JSON REST Calls

I'd recommend installing Perl locally for testing (and perhaps just pointing the script at a different URL for testing). It comes pre-installed on many *NIX systems, and on Windows, Strawberry Perl makes things fairly easy. All of the aforementioned modules are included in the latest Strawberry Perl release, while on *NIX, some of them may need to be installed.

    It may help "Perl" programmers, but I think an actual Perl programmer would just look at the C# code and write a Perl program (as two actual Perl programmers have already done :).


    Give a man a fish:  <%-{-{-{-<

      Yeah, really a REST API document only needs to show the routes and parameters, and the data returned ... not a client implementation. Honestly that would get in the way of seeing and grasping the needed info.


      The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
