Net::Amazon::Property::Book(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::Amazon::Property::Book(3)

Net::Amazon::Property::Book - Class for books on amazon.com

  use Net::Amazon;

  # ...

  if($resp->is_success()) {
      for my $prop ($resp->properties) {
          print join("/", $prop->authors()), " ",
                $prop->title(), " ",
                $prop->publisher(), " ",
                $prop->year(), "\n";
  }

"Net::Amazon::Property::Book" is derived from "Net::Amazon::Property" and on top of the all-purpose methods the base class provides, it offers specialized accessors for book parameters.

authors()
Returns a list of the book's authors. There's also a "author()" method which just returns the first author.
publisher()
Returns the book's publishing company as a string.
title()
Returns the book's title as a string.
isbn()
Returns the book's ISBN number.
edition()
Returns the book's edition.
ean()
Returns the book's EAN number.
numpages()
Returns the number of pages.
dewey_decimal()
Returns the Dewey decimal number, this is for non-fiction only.

This method is deprecated (2011-10-28) as it does not appear to be returned by Amazon any more.

publication_date()
Returns the publication date.
ReleaseDate()
Returns the release date.

For historical reasons, this method used to return the publication date. However, as of version Net::Amazon 0.44 the release date is returned, and a separate "publication_date()" method is available.

new(xmlref => $xmlref)
Initializes an object by passing a hash of hashes structure containing the XML data returned from the service. Usually, this is just used by "Net::Amazon" internally to initialize objects for on backcoming data.

Check out Net::Amazon::Property for all-purpose accessors, like "year", "OurPrice", "ListPrice", etc.
