Mobile::Wurfl is a Perl module interface to WURFL (the Wireless Universal Resource File.

SYNOPSIS

my $wurfl = Mobile::Wurfl->new(
wurfl_home => "/path/to/wurfl/home",
db_descriptor => "DBI:mysql:database=wurfl:host=localhost",
db_username => 'wurfl',
db_password => 'wurfl',
wurfl_url => q{http://wurfl.sourceforge.net/wurfl.xml}
);

my $dbh = DBI->connect( $db_descriptor, $db_username, $db_password );
my $wurfl = Mobile::Wurfl->new( dbh => $dbh );

my $desc = $wurfl->get( 'db_descriptor' );
$wurfl->set( wurfl_home => "/another/path" );

$wurfl->create_tables( $sql );
$wurfl->update();
$wurfl->get_wurfl();
$wurfl->rebuild_tables();

my @devices = $wurfl->devices();

}

my @groups = $wurfl->groups();
my @capabilities = $wurfl->capabilities();

}

my $ua = $wurfl->canonical_ua( "SonyEricssonK750i/R1J Browser/SEMC-Browser/4.2 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1" );
my $deviceid = $wurfl->deviceid( $ua );

my $wml_1_3 = $wurfl->lookup( $ua, "wml_1_3" );
print "$wml_1_3->{name} = $wml_1_3->{value} : in $wml_1_3->{group}n";

Mobile::Wurfl is a perl module that provides an interface to mobile device information represented in wurfl (http://wurfl.sourceforge.net/). The Mobile::Wurfl module works by saving this device information in a database (preferably mysql).

It offers an interface to create the relevant database tables from a SQL file containing "CREATE TABLE" statements (a sample is provided with the distribution). It also provides a method for updating the data in the database from the wurfl.xml file hosted at http://www.nusho.it/wurfl/dl.php?t=d&f=wurfl.xml.
It provides methods to query the database for lists of capabilities, and groups of capabilities. It also provides a method for generating a "canonical" user agent string (see "canonical_ua").

Finally, it provides a method for looking up values for particular capability / user agent combinations. By default, this makes use of the hierarchical "fallback" structure of wurfl to lookup capabilities fallback devices if these capabilities are not defined for the requested device.
