=head1 SYNOPSIS
Create a schema class called MyDB/Schema.pm:
package MyDB::Schema;
use base qw/DBIx::Class::Schema/;
__PACKAGE__->load_namespaces();
1;
Create a result class to represent artists, who have many CDs, in
MyDB/Schema/Result/Artist.pm:
See L for docs on defining result classes.
package MyDB::Schema::Result::Artist;
use base qw/DBIx::Class::Core/;
__PACKAGE__->table('artist');
__PACKAGE__->add_columns(qw/ artistid name /);
__PACKAGE__->set_primary_key('artistid');
__PACKAGE__->has_many(cds => 'MyDB::Schema::Result::CD');
1;
A result class to represent a CD, which belongs to an artist, in
MyDB/Schema/Result/CD.pm:
package MyDB::Schema::Result::CD;
use base qw/DBIx::Class::Core/;
__PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/InflateColumn::DateTime/);
__PACKAGE__->table('cd');
__PACKAGE__->add_columns(qw/ cdid artistid title year /);
__PACKAGE__->set_primary_key('cdid');
__PACKAGE__->belongs_to(artist => 'MyDB::Schema::Artist', 'artistid');
1;
Then you can use these classes in your application's code:
# Connect to your database.
use MyDB::Schema;
my $schema = MyDB::Schema->connect($dbi_dsn, $user, $pass, \%dbi_params);
# Query for all artists and put them in an array,
# or retrieve them as a result set object.
# $schema->resultset returns a DBIx::Class::ResultSet
my @all_artists = $schema->resultset('Artist')->all;
my $all_artists_rs = $schema->resultset('Artist');
# Output all artists names
# $artist here is a DBIx::Class::Row, which has accessors
# for all its columns. Rows are also subclasses of your Result class.
foreach $artist (@all_artists) {
print $artist->name, "\n";
}
# Create a result set to search for artists.
# This does not query the DB.
my $johns_rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search(
# Build your WHERE using an SQL::Abstract structure:
{ name => { like => 'John%' } }
);
# Execute a joined query to get the cds.
my @all_john_cds = $johns_rs->search_related('cds')->all;
# Fetch the next available row.
my $first_john = $johns_rs->next;
# Specify ORDER BY on the query.
my $first_john_cds_by_title_rs = $first_john->cds(
undef,
{ order_by => 'title' }
);
# Create a result set that will fetch the artist data
# at the same time as it fetches CDs, using only one query.
my $millennium_cds_rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search(
{ year => 2000 },
{ prefetch => 'artist' }
);
my $cd = $millennium_cds_rs->next; # SELECT ... FROM cds JOIN artists ...
my $cd_artist_name = $cd->artist->name; # Already has the data so no 2nd query
# new() makes a DBIx::Class::Row object but doesnt insert it into the DB.
# create() is the same as new() then insert().
my $new_cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->new({ title => 'Spoon' });
$new_cd->artist($cd->artist);
$new_cd->insert; # Auto-increment primary key filled in after INSERT
$new_cd->title('Fork');
$schema->txn_do(sub { $new_cd->update }); # Runs the update in a transaction
# change the year of all the millennium CDs at once
$millennium_cds_rs->update({ year => 2002 });
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This is an SQL to OO mapper with an object API inspired by L
(with a compatibility layer as a springboard for porting) and a resultset API
that allows abstract encapsulation of database operations. It aims to make
representing queries in your code as perl-ish as possible while still
providing access to as many of the capabilities of the database as possible,
including retrieving related records from multiple tables in a single query,
JOIN, LEFT JOIN, COUNT, DISTINCT, GROUP BY, ORDER BY and HAVING support.
DBIx::Class can handle multi-column primary and foreign keys, complex
queries and database-level paging, and does its best to only query the
database in order to return something you've directly asked for. If a
resultset is used as an iterator it only fetches rows off the statement
handle as requested in order to minimise memory usage. It has auto-increment
support for SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQL Server and DB2 and is
known to be used in production on at least the first four, and is fork-
and thread-safe out of the box (although your DBD may not be).
This project is still under rapid development, so large new features may be
marked EXPERIMENTAL - such APIs are still usable but may have edge bugs.
Failing test cases are *always* welcome and point releases are put out rapidly
as bugs are found and fixed.
We do our best to maintain full backwards compatibility for published
APIs, since DBIx::Class is used in production in many organisations,
and even backwards incompatible changes to non-published APIs will be fixed
if they're reported and doing so doesn't cost the codebase anything.
The test suite is quite substantial, and several developer releases
are generally made to CPAN before the branch for the next release is
merged back to trunk for a major release.
