"Cloud Files is reliable, scalable and affordable web-based storage for backing up and archiving all your static content". Find out more at . To use this module you will need to sign up to Mosso Cloud Files and provide a "user" and "key". If you use this module, you will incurr costs as specified by Mosso. Please check the costs. If you use this module with your user and key you will be responsible for these costs. I highly recommend reading all about Cloud Files, but in a nutshell data is stored in objects. Objects are referenced by names and objects are stored in containers. METHODS new The constructor logs you into Cloud Files: my $cloudfiles = Net::Mosso::CloudFiles->new( user => 'myusername', key => 'mysecretkey', ); containers List all the containers and return them as Net::Mosso::CloudFiles::Container objects: my @containers = $cloudfiles->containers; create_container Create a new container and return it as a Net::Mosso::CloudFiles::Container object: my $container = $cloudfiles->create_container(name => 'testing'); container Use an existing container and return it as a Net::Mosso::CloudFiles::Container object: my $existing_container = $cloudfiles->container(name => 'testing'); total_bytes_used Returns the total amount of bytes used in your Cloud Files account: my $total_bytes_used = $cloudfiles->total_bytes_used; TESTING Testing CloudFiles is a tricky thing. Mosso charges you a bit of money each time you use their service. And yes, testing counts as using. Because of this, this module's test suite skips testing unless you set the following three environment variables, along the lines of: CLOUDFILES_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=1 CLOUDFILES_USER=username CLOUDFILES_KEY=15bf43... perl t/simple.t SEE ALSO Net::Mosso::CloudFiles::Container, Net::Mosso::CloudFiles::Object.
