    use Scrappy::Queue;
    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
    
        $queue->add($url);
        
        while (my $url = $queue->next) {
            ... $queue->add(...);
        }

Scrappy::Queue provides a system for saving URLs to a recordset/queue and iterating of them using the Scrappy framework.

The list method return the list of URLs in the queue. This is returned in list context.

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
    
    ...
    
    my  @list = $queue->list;

The add method adds new URLs to the queue. Duplicate URLs will be ignored.

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
        $queue->add($url);

The clear method completely empties the queue and resets the cursor (loop position).

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
    
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
    
        $queue->clear;

The reset method resets the cursor (loop position).

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
    
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        
        while (my $url = $queue->next) {
            $queue->reset if ...; # beware the infinate loop
        }
        
        $queue->reset;

The current method returns the URL in the current loop position.

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
    
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        
        while (my $url = $queue->next) {
            last if ...;
        }
        
        print 'great' if $url eq $queue->current;

The next method moves the cursor to the next loop position and returns the URL.

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
    
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        
        while (my $url = $queue->next) {
            ...
        }

The previous method moves the cursor to the previous loop position and returns the URL.

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
    
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        
        while (my $url = $queue->next) {
            ...
        }
        
        print $queue->previous;

The first method moves the cursor to the first loop position and returns the URL.

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
    
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        
        print $queue->first;

The last method moves the cursor to the last loop position and returns the URL.

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
    
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        
        print $queue->last;

The index method moves the cursor to the specified loop position and returns the URL. The loop position is a standard array index position.

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
    
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        $queue->add(...);
        
        print $queue->index(1);

The cursor method returns the current loop position.

    my  $queue = Scrappy::Queue->new;
        print $queue->cursor;
