# Astro::ADS

Perl interface to the Harvard Astrophysics Data System (ADS) abstract service

## Getting Started

1. You'll need an API key from NASA ADS labs. Sign up for the newest version of ADS search at https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu, visit account settings and generate a new API token. The official documentation is available at https://github.com/adsabs/adsabs-dev-api

2. When you get your API key, save it to a file called ~/.ads/dev_key or save it as an environment variable named ADS_DEV_KEY

3. From a terminal type `cpan install Astro::ADS` (or checkout [cpanm](https://metacpan.org/pod/App::cpanminus))

4. Get the documentation using `perldoc Astro::ADS` or going to [MetaCPAN](https://metacpan.org/pod/Astro::ADS)
