# Flickr::API::Request(3pm)

A request to the Flickr API

## NAME

Flickr::API::Request - A request to the Flickr API

## SYNOPSIS

### Using the OAuth form:

```
  use Flickr::API;
  use Flickr::API::Request;
  my $api = Flickr::API->new({'consumer_key' => 'your_api_key'});
  my $request = Flickr::API::Request->new({
      'method' => $method,
      'args' => {},
  });
  my $response = $api->execute_request($request);
```

### Using the original Flickr form:

```
  use Flickr::API;
  use Flickr::API::Request;
  my $api = Flickr::API->new({'key' => 'your_api_key'});
  my $request = Flickr::API::Request->new({
      'method' => $method,
      'args' => {},
  });
  my $response = $api->execute_request($request);
```

## DESCRIPTION

This object encapsulates a request to the Flickr API.

`"Flickr::API::Request"` is a subclass of HTTP::Request, so you can access any of the request parameters and tweak them yourself. The content, content-type header and content-length header are all built from the 'args' list by the `Flickr::API::execute_request()` method.
