NAME WebService::Bluga::Webthumb - fetch website thumbnails via webthumb.bluga.net SYNOPSIS use WebService::Bluga::Webthumb; my $wt = WebService::Bluga::Webthumb->new( user => $user_id, api_key => $api_key, size => $size, # small, medium, medium2, large (default: medium) cache => $cache_days, # optional - default 14 ); # get a thumbnail URL using the default settings my $thumb_url = wt->thumb_url($url); # Get a thumbnail URL overriding some settings: my $thumb_url = $wt->thumb_url($url, { size => 'large' }); Class methods new Create a new WebService::Bluga::Webthumb object. Takes the following params: user Your webthumb user ID, available from your http://webthumb.bluga.net/user page. api_key Your webthumb API key. also available from your user page. (This is used to construct the hash of the thumbnail URL, but not sent directly.) size The size of the thumbnail to generate. Size can be: * small - 80x60 * medium - 160x120 * medium2 - 320x240 * large - 640x480 cache How many days a generated thumbnail can be cached on the webthumb servers before a fresh one is generated. Generating a thumbnail uses a credit whereas serving up a cached one uses a fraction of a credit, so don't set this too low. If not specified, defaults to 14 days. Instance methods thumb_url Given an URL, and optionally `size' / `cache' params to override those from the object, returns an URL to the thumbnail, to use in an IMG tag. easy_thumb An alias for `thumb_url'. This name was used in 0.01 to reflect the fact that it used the EasyThumb API rather than the full API; however, I think `thumb_url' is rather clearer as to the actual purpose of the method, and the implementation of it is somewhat unimportant, so consider this method somewhat deprecated (but likely to be supported indefinitely.)
