WWW::Search::PubMedLite
=======================

This module queries the NCBI PubMed database in much the same way as
the WWW::Search::PubMed module. The difference is that this module,
W::S::PubMedLite, returns more data and in a slightly different format
than the original W::S::PubMed module.

Notably, this module was developed for WWW::Wikipedia::TemplateFiller.

INSTALLATION

  % perl -MCPAN -e 'install WWW::Search::PubMedLite'

SYNOPSIS

Converting HTML to wiki markup is easy:

  use WWW::Search;
  my $search = new WWW::Search('PubMedLite');

  $search->native_query( 126941 );
  my $article = $search->next_result;

  my @fields = qw(
    pmid
    journal
    journal_abbreviation
    volulme
    issue
    title
    page
    year
    month
    affiliation
    abstract
    language
    doi
    text_url
    pmc_id
  );

  foreach my $field ( @fields ) {
    printf "%s: %s\n", $field, $article->{$field};
  }

There's also a web interface if you're so inclined:
