Google Safe Browsing v2: Implementation notes

I wanted to share what I learned while I implementing Net::Google::SafeBrowsing2, a Perl library for Google Safe Browsing v2. I have put together "Google Safe Browsing v2 API: implementation notes", a collection of notes and real-world numbers about the API. This is intended for people who want to learn more about the API, whether as a user or to make their own implementation.

This is not another description of the API. Rather, it provides information about what you should expect from the API:
  • how many updates does it take to get the full database initially
  • how many updates there are per day on average
  • how many add chunks and sub chunks you should expect
  • how to test a library
  • key differences between version 1 and 2
  • etc.
The DOC and PDF versions can be downloaded from our website:
