perl mechanize check mirror response for errors

To check the mirror response for errors using Perl Mechanize, you can follow these steps:

  1. Install the required Perl modules, including WWW::Mechanize and HTTP::Response.
  2. Create a new instance of the WWW::Mechanize class.
  3. Use the get method to retrieve the mirror response.
  4. Check the status code of the response using the is_success method of the HTTP::Response class.
  5. If the status code indicates an error (e.g., 4xx or 5xx), handle the error accordingly.

Here's an example Perl code snippet that demonstrates this process:

use strict;
use warnings;
use WWW::Mechanize;
use HTTP::Response;

# Create a new instance of WWW::Mechanize
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();

# Retrieve the mirror response
$mech->get('http://mirror.example.com');

# Check the status code of the response
my $response = $mech->response();
if ($response->is_success) {
    print "Mirror response is successful.\n";
} else {
    print "Mirror response encountered an error: " . $response->status_line . "\n";
}

Please note that you may need to modify the URL in the get method to match the mirror you want to check.
