###################################################################### Net::Evernote::Simple 0.04 ###################################################################### NAME Net::Evernote::Simple - Simple interface to the Evernote API SYNOPSIS use Net::Evernote::Simple; my $evernote = Net::Evernote::Simple->new( # Obtain a developer token from Evernote and put it here dev_token => "XXX", ); # check if our client API version still works if( ! $evernote->version_check() ) { print "Evernote API version out of date!\n"; } my $note_store = $evernote->note_store(); if( !$note_store ) { die "getting notestore failed: $@"; } # retrieve all of our notebooks my $notebooks = $note_store->listNotebooks( $evernote->dev_token() ); for my $notebook ( @$notebooks ) { print $notebook->name(), "\n"; } DESCRIPTION Net::Evernote::Simple enables easy access to the Evernote API with developer tokens. Developer tokens allow read/write access to a user's Evernote data. If you don't have a developer token yet, you can obtain one here: http://dev.evernote.com/documentation/cloud/chapters/Authentication.php#devtoken Net::Evernote::Simple then lets you obtain a note_store object which can then be used with a variety of functions of the Evernote API described here: http://dev.evernote.com/documentation/cloud/chapters/ METHODS "new()" Constructor, creates a helper object to retrieve a note store object later. To access Evernote data, you need a developer token and specify it either with the "dev_token" parameter in the constructor call: my $evernote = Net::Evernote::Simple->new( dev_token => "XXX", ); You can omit the "dev_token" parameter and let Net::Evernote::Simple search for a configuration file named "~/.evernote.yml" containing the developer token like dev_token: XXX within the YAML data. To specify an alternative YAML file, use my $evernote = Net::Evernote::Simple->new( config_file => "/path/to/evernote.yml", ); The object points to the Evernote production server by default. If you want to use the sandbox instead, use my $evernote = Net::Evernote::Simple->new( evernote_host => "sandbox.evernote.com", ); "version_check()" Contact the Evernote API server and verify if the client API version we're using is still supported. If this fails, please contact the author of this module and ask to update the distribution on CPAN. To make things easier for users of this module, the Evernote "dev_token()" Return the value of the developer token. Many Evernote API functions need the value of the token (like "listNotebooks()" or "createNote()"). "note_store()" Obtain a note_store object from Evernote SDK, which allows you call all sorts of Evernote data manipulation functions, like "listNotebooks()" or "createNote()". One thing to keep in mind when using this library is that the original "EDAMxxx" namespace of the Evernote API has been converted to "Net::Evernote::Simple::EDAMxxx" to avoid collisions. See the example below to get an idea on how to use it. Consult the official Evernote API documentation at the link listed above for details on data structures used and parameters needed.
