Perl API for Checkvist

[Neil Bowers]

I'm working on a Perl API for Checkvist: a collection of classes built on the Checkvist API.

It's not even close to a version 1 yet, but I've got core stuff done as I needed it for

my task generator hack:

I'm posting this in case anyone else is working on stuff in Perl, and is possibly interested in hacking together. At some point I'll put it on github and release to CPAN, if there's interest beyond me :-)

I had an idea to do one, but still have too many things that aren't done
to be able to think about that.

I haven't done much yet, but I am interested.

Hello Neil,

   If you decide to publish your API (via github/CPAN/whatever) we'll definitely give people more awareness about your efforts
   and publish a link to your API on the Checkvist OpenAPI page.
  
   If you need any help from our side regarding existing Checkvist OpenAPI - please let us know, we'll try to do what we can :)

   Thanks!

Checkvist OpenAPI is so simple that you hardly need any wrappers around it, especially in Perl :)

See my https://github.com/kappa/checkvist-backup/blob/master/checkvist_backup.pl for example.

Indeed. For Perl programmers familiar with LWP, and comfortable working with URI formats,

it's pretty easy. But I think there are plenty who would prefer to work in a style like:

$checkvist = Checkvist->new( ... );

$list      = $checkvist->create_list( ... );

$list->create_task( ... );

I looked at that. Nice elegant code.
