RT::Client::REST::Attachment(3)

NAME
RT::Client::REST::Attachment -- this object represents an attachment.

SYNOPSIS
  my $attachments = $ticket->attachments;

  my $count = $attachments->count;
  print "There are $count attachments.\n";

  my $iterator = $attachments->get_iterator;
  while (my $att = &$iterator) {
      print "Id: ", $att->id, "; Subject: ", $att->subject, "\n";
  }

DESCRIPTION
An attachment is a second-class citizen, as it does not exist (at least from the current REST protocol implementation) by itself. At the moment, it is always associated with a ticket (see parent_id attribute). Thus, you will rarely retrieve an attachment by itself; instead, you should use "attachments()" method of RT::Client::REST::Ticket object to get an iterator for all attachments for that ticket.

ATTRIBUTES

id  Numeric ID of the attachment.

creator_id
    Numeric ID of the user who created the attachment.

parent_id
    Numeric ID of the object the attachment is associated with. This is not a proper attribute of the attachment as specified by REST -- it is simply to store the ID of the RT::Client::REST::Ticket object this attachment belongs to.

subject
    Subject of the attachment.

content_type
    Content type.

file_name
    File name (if any).

transaction_id
    Numeric ID of the RT::Client::REST::Transaction object this attachment is associated with.

message_id
    Message ID.

created
    Time when the attachment was created

content
    Actual content of the attachment.

headers
    Headers (not parsed), if any.

parent
    Parent (not sure what this is yet).

content_encoding
    Content encoding, if any.

METHODS
RT::Client::REST::Attachment is a read-only object, so you cannot "store()" it. Also, because it is a second-class citizen, you cannot "search()" or "count()" it -- use "attachments()" method provided by RT::Client::REST::Ticket.

retrieve
    To retrieve an attachment, attributes id and parent_id must be set.

INTERNAL METHODS

rt_type
    Returns 'attachment'.
