LWP::UserAgent::post gives me an odd response

[gideondsouza]

So I'm doing a POST request to github as part of an OAuth web flow authentication. (This is part of a sub in a Dancer app).

I use LWP::UserAgent::post() and the docs I linked to seem to say that method will return a HTTP::Response object. But I get a weird type.

When I send a post to github for the access_token is where I have a slight problemo:

my $code = params->{'code'};
my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;
my $resp = $browser.post('https://github.com/login/oauth/access_token'
+,
[
 client_id =>'<my client id>'
 client_secret => '<my secret>', 
 code => $code,#the code I got in the param
 state => '<some state>'
]);
#HERE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
# I cannot seem to figure what $resp is!??
#----- $resp->is_success doesn't work! 
return Dumper($resp);

Issues
1. If I use $resp->is_success then I get Can't locate object method "is_success"
2. With the Data::Dumper I get the following response: $VAR1 = 'LWP::UserAgent=HASH(0x7fd8da50a690)Dancer::Route=HASH(0x7fd8da4dd6a8)';

Any ideas?? How should I go an inspect the object that is returned.? Am I getting two objects here?
