NAME Class::Dot::Model - Simple way of defining models for DBIx::Class. VERSION This document describes Class::Dot::Model version v%%VERSION%% SYNOPSIS package My::Model; use Class::Dot::Model domain => 'org.mydomain.myapp'; package My::Model::Cat; use Class::Dot::Model::Table qw(:has_many); Table 'cats'; Columns qw( id gender dna action colour ); Primary_Key 'id'; Has_Many 'memories' => 'My::Model::Cat::Memory'; package My::Model::Cat::Memory; use Class::Dot::Model::Table qw(:belongs_to); Table 'memory'; Columns qw( id cat content ); Primary_Key 'id'; Belongs_To 'cat' => 'My::Model::Cat'; Then you would have to initialize the database configuration for org.mydomain.myapp: use Config::PlConfig; my $DOMAIN = 'org.mydomain.myapp'; my $dbconfig = { driver => 'mysql', database => 'myappdb', hostname => 'localhost', username => 'me', password => 'secret', }; my $plconfig = Config::PlConfig->new({ domain => $DOMAIN, }); my $config = $plconfig->load(); $config->{database} = $dbconfig; $plconfig->save(); DESCRIPTION A module for making DBIx::Class even simpler. SUBROUTINES/METHODS None of this modules functions should be used directly. PRIVATE CLASS METHODS "_create_dsn_with_config($config)" Create a DBI DSN out of a configuration hash. "_install_constructor($call_class, $dsn, $config)" Create an install a C function into the callers namespace. This new function is responsible for connecting to the database etc. The property is a string. "_load_dbconfig($config_domain, $config_host)" Load the database configuration using a Config::PlConfig host and domain. PRIVATE SUBROUTINES "requires()" Used by L to know which modules this module requires. DIAGNOSTICS None. CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT This module uses Config::PlConfig to load configuration if a domain is given as import argument. DEPENDENCIES * DBIx::Class * Class::Dot * Class::Plugin::Util * Params::Util * Config::PlConfig * version INCOMPATIBILITIES None known. BUGS AND LIMITATIONS No bugs have been reported.
