NAME

WWW::Search::Ebay - backend for searching www.ebay.com

SYNOPSIS

   use WWW::Search;
   my $oSearch = new WWW::Search('Ebay');
   my $sQuery = WWW::Search::escape_query("C-10 carded Yakface");
   $oSearch->native_query($sQuery);

     { print $oResult->url, "\n"; }

DESCRIPTION

This class is a Ebay specialization of WWW::Search. It handles making and interpreting Ebay searches http://www.ebay.com.

This class exports no public interface; all interaction should be done through WWW::Search objects.

NOTES

The search is done against CURRENT running auctions only.

The query is applied to TITLES only.

The results are ordered youngest auctions first (reverse order of auction listing date).

In the resulting WWW::Search::Result objects, the description field consists of a human-readable combination (joined with semicolon-space) of the Item Number; number of bids; and high bid amount (or starting bid amount).

OPTIONS

Search descriptions
To search titles and descriptions, add 'srchdesc' => 'y' to the query options: 
   $oSearch->native_query($sQuery, { srchdesc => 'y' } );

SEE ALSO

To make new back-ends, see WWW::Search.
