=head1 NAME

LWP::RobotUA - A class for Web Robots

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  require LWP::RobotUA;
  $ua = new LWP::RobotUA 'my-robot/0.1', '[e-mail]';
  $ua->delay(10);  # be very nice, go slowly
  ...
  # just use it just like a normal LWP::UserAgent
  $res = $ua->request($req);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class implements a user agent that is suitable for robot
applications.  Robots should be nice to the servers they visit.  They
should consult the F<robots.txt> file to ensure that they are welcomed
and they should not send too frequent requests.

But, before you consider writing a robot take a look at
<URL:http://info.webcrawler.com/mak/projects/robots/robots.html>.

When you use a I<LWP::RobotUA> as your user agent, then you do not
really have to think about these things yourself.  Just send requests
as you do when you are using a normal I<LWP::UserAgent> and this
special agent will make sure you are nice.

=head1 METHODS

The LWP::RobotUA is a sub-class of LWP::UserAgent and implements the
same methods. In addition the following methods are provided:

#
# Additional attributes in addition to those found in LWP::UserAgent:
#
# $self->{'delay'}    Required delay between request to the same
#                     server in minutes.
#
# $self->{'rules'}     A WWW::RobotRules object
#


=item $ua = LWP::RobotUA->new($agent_name, $from, [$rules])

Your robot's name and the mail address of the human responsible for
the robot (i.e. you) is required by the constructor.

Optionally it allows you to specify the I<WWW::RobotRules> object to
use.

=cut

sub new
{
    my($class,$name,$from,$rules) = @_;

    Carp::croak('LWP::RobotUA name required') unless $name;

    $self->{'agent'} = $name;
    $self->{'from'}  = $from;

	$self->{'rules'} = $rules;
    } else {
	$self->{'rules'} = new WWW::RobotRules $name;
    }

    $self;
}


=item $ua->delay([$minutes])

Set the minimum delay between requests to the same server.  The
default is 1 minute.

=item $ua->use_sleep([$boolean])

Get/set a value indicating wether the UA should sleep() if request
arrive to fast (before $ua->delay minutes has passed).  The default is
TRUE.  If this value is FALSE then an internal SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE
response will be generated.  It will have an Retry-After header that
indicate when it is OK to send another request to this server.

Returns the number of documents fetched from this server host. Yes I
know, this method should probably have been named num_visits() or
something like that :-(

Returns the number of seconds (from now) you must wait before you can
make a new request to this host.

Returns a text that describe the state of the UA.
Mainly useful for debugging.
