Net::Amazon::Request::EAN - request class for EAN search

SYNOPSIS

Top

  use Net::Amazon;
  use Net::Amazon::Request::EAN;

  my $ua = Net::Amazon->new(
      token       => 'YOUR_AMZN_TOKEN'
  );

  my $req = Net::Amazon::Request::EAN->new( 
      ean => '5035822647633',
  );

    # Response is of type Net::Amazon::Response::EAN
  my $resp = $ua->request($req);

DESCRIPTION

Top

Net::Amazon::Request::EAN is a class used to submit EAN search requests to the Amazon web service.

The EAN number to search for is specified in the EAN parameter.

Upon success, the response's properties() method will return a single Net::Amazon::Property object.

According to the Amazon E-Commerce Service Developer's Guide (2007-01-15) EAN searches are only valid in DE, JP, and CA only. This is patently false. I think this is a documenation bug, and is actually for valid for non-US only.

METHODS

new(ean => $ean)

Constructs a new Net::Amazon::Request::EAN object, used to query the Amazon web service for an item with the given EAN number.
