WWW Mechanize - 401 Authorization Required
Last Updated on Thursday, 26 August 2010 20:00 Monday, 23 August 2010 09:32
Here is a small script on how to login to a .htaccess protected page. Suppose that URL we want to login to is:
http(:)//www(.)example(.)com/
and here are credentials required to login:
username: www password: mechanize
The perl script to fetch the content of this page will look like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use WWW::Mechanize;
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new( autocheck => 1 );
$url = 'http://www.example.com/';
$mech->credentials( 'www' => 'mechanize' );
$mech->get( $url );
print $mech->content();
