NAME

HTTP::Tiny::Paranoid - A safer HTTP::Tiny

SYNOPSIS

# use just like HTTP::Tiny
use HTTP::Tiny::Paranoid;
my $response = HTTP::Tiny::Paranoid->new->get('http://example.com');

# block or whitelist specific hosts
# delegates to Net::DNS::Paranoid
HTTP::Tiny::Paranoid->blocked_hosts([...]);
HTTP::Tiny::Paranoid->whitelisted_hosts([...]);

DESCRIPTION

This module is a subclass of HTTP::Tiny that performs exactly one additional function: before connecting, it passes the hostname to Net::DNS::Paranoid. If the hostname is rejected, then the request is aborted before a connect is even attempted.

By default, Net::DNS::Paranoid rejects connections to private network ranges. The blocklist & whitelist can be manipulated using the blocked_hosts and whitelisted_hosts class methods.
