Create the DBIx:Class schema in MyApp/Schema/FilmDB.pm: package MyApp::Schema::FilmDB; use base qw/DBIx::Class::Schema/; __PACKAGE__->load_classes(qw/Actor Role/); =item 2. Create some classes for the tables in the database, for example an Actor in MyApp/Schema/FilmDB/Actor.pm: package MyApp::Schema::FilmDB::Actor; use base qw/DBIx::Class/ __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/Core/); __PACKAGE__->table('actor'); ... and a Role in MyApp/Schema/FilmDB/Role.pm: package MyApp::Schema::FilmDB::Role; use base qw/DBIx::Class/ __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/Core/); __PACKAGE__->table('role'); ... Notice that the schema is in MyApp::Schema, not in MyApp::Model. This way it's usable as a standalone module and you can test/run it without Catalyst. =item 3. To expose it to Catalyst as a model, you should create a DBIC Model in MyApp/Model/FilmDB.pm: package MyApp::Model::FilmDB; use base qw/Catalyst::Model::DBIC::Schema/; __PACKAGE__->config( schema_class => 'MyApp::Schema::FilmDB', connect_info => { dsn => "DBI:...", user => "username", password => "password", } ); See below for a full list of the possible config parameters. =back Now you have a working Model which accesses your separate DBIC Schema. This can be used/accessed in the normal Catalyst manner, via $c->model(): my $actor = $c->model('FilmDB::Actor')->find(1); You can also use it to set up DBIC authentication with L in MyApp.pm: package MyApp; use Catalyst qw/... Authentication .../; ... __PACKAGE__->config->{authentication} = { default_realm => 'members', realms => { members => { credential => { class => 'Password', password_field => 'password', password_type => 'hashed' password_hash_type => 'SHA-256' }, store => { class => 'DBIx::Class', user_model => 'DB::User', role_relation => 'roles', role_field => 'rolename', } } } }; C<< $c->model('Schema::Source') >> returns a L for the source name parameter passed. To find out more about which methods can be called on a ResultSet, or how to add your own methods to it, please see the ResultSet documentation in the L distribution. Some examples are given below: # to access schema methods directly: $c->model('FilmDB')->schema->source(...); # to access the source object, resultset, and class: $c->model('FilmDB')->source(...); $c->model('FilmDB')->resultset(...); $c->model('FilmDB')->class(...); # For resultsets, there's an even quicker shortcut: $c->model('FilmDB::Actor') # is the same as $c->model('FilmDB')->resultset('Actor') # To get the composed schema for making new connections: my $newconn = $c->model('FilmDB')->composed_schema->connect(...); # Or the same thing via a convenience shortcut: my $newconn = $c->model('FilmDB')->connect(...); # or, if your schema works on different storage drivers: my $newconn = $c->model('FilmDB')->composed_schema->clone(); $newconn->storage_type('::LDAP'); $newconn->connection(...); # and again, a convenience shortcut my $newconn = $c->model('FilmDB')->clone(); $newconn->storage_type('::LDAP'); $newconn->connection(...); =head1 DESCRIPTION This is a Catalyst Model for L-based Models. See the documentation for L for information on generating these Models via Helper scripts. When your Catalyst app starts up, a thin Model layer is created as an interface to your DBIC Schema. It should be clearly noted that the model object returned by C<< $c->model('FilmDB') >> is NOT itself a DBIC schema or resultset object, but merely a wrapper proving L to access the underlying schema. In addition to this model class, a shortcut class is generated for each source in the schema, allowing easy and direct access to a resultset of the corresponding type. These generated classes are even thinner than the model class, providing no public methods but simply hooking into Catalyst's model() accessor via the L mechanism. The complete contents of each generated class is roughly equivalent to the following: package MyApp::Model::FilmDB::Actor sub ACCEPT_CONTEXT { my ($self, $c) = @_; $c->model('FilmDB')->resultset('Actor'); } In short, there are three techniques available for obtaining a DBIC resultset object: # the long way my $rs = $c->model('FilmDB')->schema->resultset('Actor'); # using the shortcut method on the model object my $rs = $c->model('FilmDB')->resultset('Actor'); # using the generated class directly my $rs = $c->model('FilmDB::Actor'); In order to add methods to a DBIC resultset, you cannot simply add them to the source (row, table) definition class; you must define a separate custom resultset class. See L for more info. =head1 CONFIG PARAMETERS =head2 schema_class This is the classname of your L Schema. It needs to be findable in C<@INC>, but it does not need to be inside the C namespace. This parameter is required. =head2 connect_info This is an arrayref of connection parameters, which are specific to your C (see your storage type documentation for more details). If you only need one parameter (e.g. the DSN), you can just pass a string instead of an arrayref. This is not required if C already has connection information defined inside itself (which isn't highly recommended, but can be done) For L, which is the only supported C in L at the time of this writing, the parameters are your dsn, username, password, and connect options hashref. See L for a detailed explanation of the arguments supported. Examples: connect_info => { dsn => 'dbi:Pg:dbname=mypgdb', user => 'postgres', password => '' } connect_info => { dsn => 'dbi:SQLite:dbname=foo.db', on_connect_do => [ 'PRAGMA synchronous = OFF', ] } connect_info => { dsn => 'dbi:Pg:dbname=mypgdb', user => 'postgres', password => '', pg_enable_utf8 => 1, on_connect_do => [ 'some SQL statement', 'another SQL statement', ], } Or using L: schema_class MyApp::Schema::FilmDB traits Caching dsn dbi:Pg:dbname=mypgdb user postgres password "" auto_savepoint 1 quote_char """ on_connect_do some SQL statement on_connect_do another SQL statement or schema_class MyApp::Schema::FilmDB connect_info dbi:SQLite:dbname=foo.db Or using L: Model::MyDB: schema_class: MyDB connect_info: dsn: dbi:Oracle:mydb user: mtfnpy password: mypass LongReadLen: 1000000 LongTruncOk: 1 on_connect_do: [ "alter session set nls_date_format = 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'" ] cursor_class: 'DBIx::Class::Cursor::Cached' quote_char: '"' The old arrayref style with hashrefs for L then L options is also supported: connect_info => [ 'dbi:Pg:dbname=mypgdb', 'postgres', '', { pg_enable_utf8 => 1, }, { auto_savepoint => 1, on_connect_do => [ 'some SQL statement', 'another SQL statement', ], } ] =head2 traits Array of Traits to apply to the instance. Traits are Ls. They are relative to the C<< MyApp::TraitFor::Model::DBIC::Schema:: >>, then the C<< Catalyst::TraitFor::Model::DBIC::Schema:: >> namespaces, unless prefixed with C<+> in which case they are taken to be a fully qualified name. E.g.: traits Caching traits +MyApp::TraitFor::Model::Foo A new instance is created at application time, so any consumed required attributes, coercions and modifiers will work. Traits are applied at L time using L. C will be an anon class if any traits are applied, C<< $self->_original_class_name >> will be the original class. When writing a Trait, interesting points to modify are C, L and L. Traits that come with the distribution: =over 4 =item L =item L =back =head2 storage_type Allows the use of a different C than what is set in your C (which in turn defaults to C<::DBI> if not set in current L). Completely optional, and probably unnecessary for most people until other storage backends become available for L. =head1 ATTRIBUTES The keys you pass in the model configuration are available as attributes. Other attributes available: =head2 connect_info Your connect_info args normalized to hashref form (with dsn/user/password.) See L for more info on the hashref form of L. =head2 model_name The model name L uses to resolve this model, the part after C<::Model::> or C<::M::> in your class name. E.g. if your class name is C the L will be C. =head2 _default_cursor_class What to reset your L to if a custom one doesn't work out. Defaults to L. =head1 ATTRIBUTES FROM L =head2 _original_class_name The class name of your model before any L are applied. E.g. C. =head2 _traits Unresolved arrayref of traits passed in the config. =head2 _resolved_traits Traits you used resolved to full class names. =head1 METHODS =head2 new Instantiates the Model based on the above-documented ->config parameters. The only required parameter is C. C is required in the case that C does not already have connection information defined for it. =head2 schema Accessor which returns the connected schema being used by the this model. There are direct shortcuts on the model class itself for schema->resultset, schema->source, and schema->class. =head2 composed_schema Accessor which returns the composed schema, which has no connection info, which was used in constructing the C above. Useful for creating new connections based on the same schema/model. There are direct shortcuts from the model object for composed_schema->clone and composed_schema->connect =head2 clone Shortcut for ->composed_schema->clone =head2 connect Shortcut for ->composed_schema->connect =head2 source Shortcut for ->schema->source =head2 class Shortcut for ->schema->class =head2 resultset Shortcut for ->schema->resultset =head2 storage Provides an accessor for the connected schema's storage object. Used often for debugging and controlling transactions. =cut has schema => (is => 'rw', isa => 'DBIx::Class::Schema'); has schema_class => ( is => 'ro', isa => LoadedClass, coerce => 1, required => 1 ); has storage_type => (is => 'rw', isa => Str); has connect_info => (is => 'ro', isa => ConnectInfo, coerce => 1); has model_name => ( is => 'ro', isa => Str, required => 1, lazy_build => 1, ); has _default_cursor_class => ( is => 'ro', isa => LoadedClass, default => 'DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Cursor', coerce => 1 ); sub BUILD { my $self = shift; my $class = $self->_original_class_name; my $schema_class = $self->schema_class; if( !$self->connect_info ) { if($schema_class->storage && $schema_class->storage->connect_info) { $self->connect_info($schema_class->storage->connect_info); } else { die "Either ->config->{connect_info} must be defined for $class" .
