Passing both GET and POST params to HTTP Request

[Doctrin]

Hello dear Monks :) Say, I want to POST to an url like http://mysite.org/some/url/?with=params&some=else with a basic authorization. So, I do:

my $HttpReq = HTTP::Request->new( POST => "http://mysite.org/some/url/
+?with=params&some=else");
$HttpReq->authorization_basic(&MY_LOGIN, &MY_PASSWORD);

It works; BUT, is there a way to provide GET params more, say, gently, like that, maybe:

my $HttpReq = HTTP::Request->new( POST => "http://mysite.org/some/url"
+, getparams => [with => 'params',some => 'else']);
$HttpReq->authorization_basic(&MY_LOGIN, &MY_PASSWORD);

Thanks in advance

What you call "GET params" are just URL params. HTTP::Request doesn't have a special syntax for constructing an URL from path and parameter, that's not its job.

But for example URI has a method query_form that can help you in constructing the URL.

In general, HTTP::Request is pretty low level. If you want convenience, you might want to use a a more high-level abstraction (like LWP::UserAgent or Mojo::UserAgent or so).

Thanks! URI would do the trick, I think :)
