FUNCTIONS use_riap_package Usage: use_riap_package(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta] Use a Riap package as if it was a local Perl module. "Use" a remote code package over Riap protocol as if it was a local Perl module. Actually, what is being done is query the remote URL for available functions, and for each remote function, create a proxy function. The proxy function will then call the remote function. Currently only functions are imported. Variables and other entities are ignored. This function is not exported. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * include => *array[str]* Do not load all children, only load specified ones. * into* => *str* Perl package name to put proxy functions into. Example: 'Foo::Bar', 'Example::Module'. * url* => *str* Location of Riap package entity. Example: '/Foo/Bar/' (local Perl module), 'http://example.com/api/Module/'. Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.
