Overview

Net::Google::SafeBrowsing2::Lookup implements the Google Safe Browsing v2 Lookup API. See the API documentation at <http://code.google.com/apis/safebrowsing/lookup_guide.html>.

If you need to check more than 10,000 URLs a day, you need to use Net::Google::SafeBrowsing2.

The source code is available on github at https://github.com/juliensobrier/Net-Google-SafeBrowsing2 <https://github.com/juliensobrier/Net-Google-SafeBrowsing2>.

Constructor

new()

Create a Net::Google::SafeBrowsing2::Lookup object

  my $gsb = Net::Google::SafeBrowsing2::Lookup->new(
        key     => "my key", 
        debug   => 0,
  );

Arguments

key: Required. Your Google Safe Browsing API key

debug

Optional. Set to 1 to enable debugging. 0 (disabled) by default.

The debug output maybe quite large and can slow down significantly the update and lookup functions.

errors: Optional. Set to 1 to show errors to STDOUT. 0 (disabled by default).

version: Optional. Google Safe Browsing version. 3.0 by default

delay: Optional. Delay, in seconds, between 2 requests to the Google server. See the "lookup" function for more details. 0 (no delay) by default

Public functions

lookup()

Lookup a list URLs against the Google Safe Browsing v2 lists.

  my %match = $gsb->lookup(url => 'http://www.gumblar.cn');

Returns a hash "url" => "Google match". The possible list of values for "Google match" are: "ok" (no match), "malware", "phishing", "malware,phishing" (match both lists) and "error".

Arguments

url: Optional. Single URL to lookup.

urls

Optional. List of URLs to lookup.

The Lookup API allows only 10,000 URL checks a day. if you need more, use the Net::Google::SafeBrowsing2 library.

Each requests must contain 500 URLs at most. The lookup() method will split the list of URLS in blocks of 500 URLs if needed.

delay: Optional. If more than 500 URLs are checked, wait "delay" seconds between consecutive requests to avoid rate limiting by Google.
