NAME WWW::Splunk - Client library for Splunk log search engine SYNOPSIS use WWW::Splunk; my $splunk = WWW::Splunk->new({ host => $host, port => $port, login => $login, password => $password, unsafe_ssl => 1, verbose => 0, }); my $sid = $splunk->start_search('selinux avc'); $splunk->poll_search($sid); until ($splunk->results_read($sid)) { print scalar $splunk->search_results($sid); } print " results found\n"; DESCRIPTION This module contains utility functions for Splunk API, implementing version 4.1 API, verified to work with 4.2, 4.3 and 5.0.3 versions. start_search (string) [(since)] [(until)] Initiate a search, return a SID (Search ID) string. rt_search (string) (callback) [(since)] [(until)] Initiate a real-time search, calling a callback for each line matched. Finishes only if connection terminates (potentially never), returning number of results consumed. search_done (sid) Return true if the search is finished. poll_search (sid) Wait for a search to finish. search_results (sid) Return an array of the matched events. If called multiple times, it only returns events which were added from the time of the last call. Oh, and you can't run multiple search concurrently with single WWW::Splunk instance. Otherwise, WWW::Splunk is perfectly thread-safe. results_read (sid) Return true if search is finished and all there are no more results to read (everything was fetched with search_results).
