20 | =head1 NAME |
21 | |
22 | Catalyst::Model::DBIC::Schema - DBIx::Class::Schema Model Class |
23 | |
24 | =head1 SYNOPSIS |
25 | |
aabc1d75 |
26 | Manual creation of a DBIx::Class::Schema and a Catalyst::Model::DBIC::Schema: |
27 | |
28 | =over |
29 | |
30 | =item 1. |
31 | |
32 | Create the DBIx:Class schema in MyApp/Schema/FilmDB.pm: |
33 | |
34 | package MyApp::Schema::FilmDB; |
35 | use base qw/DBIx::Class::Schema/; |
36 | |
37 | __PACKAGE__->load_classes(qw/Actor Role/); |
38 | |
39 | =item 2. |
40 | |
41 | Create some classes for the tables in the database, for example an |
42 | Actor in MyApp/Schema/FilmDB/Actor.pm: |
43 | |
44 | package MyApp::Schema::FilmDB::Actor; |
45 | use base qw/DBIx::Class/ |
07edc53e |
46 | |
aabc1d75 |
47 | __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/Core/); |
48 | __PACKAGE__->table('actor'); |
07edc53e |
49 | |
aabc1d75 |
50 | ... |
51 | |
c8ae74f8 |
52 | and a Role in MyApp/Schema/FilmDB/Role.pm: |
aabc1d75 |
53 | |
54 | package MyApp::Schema::FilmDB::Role; |
55 | use base qw/DBIx::Class/ |
07edc53e |
56 | |
aabc1d75 |
57 | __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/Core/); |
4a3e80e9 |
58 | __PACKAGE__->table('role'); |
07edc53e |
59 | |
aabc1d75 |
60 | ... |
61 | |
62 | Notice that the schema is in MyApp::Schema, not in MyApp::Model. This way it's |
63 | usable as a standalone module and you can test/run it without Catalyst. |
64 | |
65 | =item 3. |
66 | |
67 | To expose it to Catalyst as a model, you should create a DBIC Model in |
68 | MyApp/Model/FilmDB.pm: |
69 | |
70 | package MyApp::Model::FilmDB; |
71 | use base qw/Catalyst::Model::DBIC::Schema/; |
07edc53e |
72 | |
aabc1d75 |
73 | __PACKAGE__->config( |
74 | schema_class => 'MyApp::Schema::FilmDB', |
75 | connect_info => [ |
76 | "DBI:...", |
77 | "username", |
78 | "password", |
79 | {AutoCommit => 1} |
80 | ] |
81 | ); |
82 | |
83 | See below for a full list of the possible config parameters. |
84 | |
85 | =back |
86 | |
6dec11b7 |
87 | Now you have a working Model which accesses your separate DBIC Schema. This can |
aabc1d75 |
88 | be used/accessed in the normal Catalyst manner, via $c->model(): |
89 | |
90 | my $actor = $c->model('FilmDB::Actor')->find(1); |
91 | |
92 | You can also use it to set up DBIC authentication with |
93 | Authentication::Store::DBIC in MyApp.pm: |
94 | |
95 | package MyApp; |
07edc53e |
96 | |
aabc1d75 |
97 | use Catalyst qw/... Authentication::Store::DBIC/; |
07edc53e |
98 | |
aabc1d75 |
99 | ... |
07edc53e |
100 | |
aabc1d75 |
101 | __PACKAGE__->config->{authentication}{dbic} = { |
102 | user_class => 'FilmDB::Actor', |
103 | user_field => 'name', |
104 | password_field => 'password' |
105 | } |
106 | |
d52bc376 |
107 | C<< $c->model('Schema::Source') >> returns a L<DBIx::Class::ResultSet> for |
108 | the source name parameter passed. To find out more about which methods can |
109 | be called on a ResultSet, or how to add your own methods to it, please see |
110 | the ResultSet documentation in the L<DBIx::Class> distribution. |
aabc1d75 |
111 | |
112 | Some examples are given below: |
113 | |
f1613faa |
114 | # to access schema methods directly: |
115 | $c->model('FilmDB')->schema->source(...); |
116 | |
117 | # to access the source object, resultset, and class: |
07edc53e |
118 | $c->model('FilmDB')->source(...); |
119 | $c->model('FilmDB')->resultset(...); |
120 | $c->model('FilmDB')->class(...); |
c12b7310 |
121 | |
07edc53e |
122 | # For resultsets, there's an even quicker shortcut: |
123 | $c->model('FilmDB::Actor') |
124 | # is the same as $c->model('FilmDB')->resultset('Actor') |
ad91060a |
125 | |
f1613faa |
126 | # To get the composed schema for making new connections: |
127 | my $newconn = $c->model('FilmDB')->composed_schema->connect(...); |
128 | |
129 | # Or the same thing via a convenience shortcut: |
130 | my $newconn = $c->model('FilmDB')->connect(...); |
131 | |
132 | # or, if your schema works on different storage drivers: |
133 | my $newconn = $c->model('FilmDB')->composed_schema->clone(); |
134 | $newconn->storage_type('::LDAP'); |
135 | $newconn->connection(...); |
136 | |
137 | # and again, a convenience shortcut |
138 | my $newconn = $c->model('FilmDB')->clone(); |
139 | $newconn->storage_type('::LDAP'); |
140 | $newconn->connection(...); |

142 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
143 | |
7b39f3f0 |
144 | This is a Catalyst Model for L<DBIx::Class::Schema>-based Models. See |
ef91bcf9 |
145 | the documentation for L<Catalyst::Helper::Model::DBIC::Schema> for |
146 | information on generating these Models via Helper scripts. |
ad91060a |
147 | |
d52bc376 |
148 | When your Catalyst app starts up, a thin Model layer is created as an |
149 | interface to your DBIC Schema. It should be clearly noted that the model |
150 | object returned by C<< $c->model('FilmDB') >> is NOT itself a DBIC schema or |
151 | resultset object, but merely a wrapper proving L<methods|/METHODS> to access |
152 | the underlying schema. |
153 | |
154 | In addition to this model class, a shortcut class is generated for each |
155 | source in the schema, allowing easy and direct access to a resultset of the |
156 | corresponding type. These generated classes are even thinner than the model |
157 | class, providing no public methods but simply hooking into Catalyst's |
158 | model() accessor via the |
159 | L<ACCEPT_CONTEXT|Catalyst::Component/ACCEPT_CONTEXT> mechanism. The complete |
160 | contents of each generated class is roughly equivalent to the following: |
161 | |
162 | package MyApp::Model::FilmDB::Actor |
163 | sub ACCEPT_CONTEXT { |
164 | my ($self, $c) = @_; |
165 | $c->model('FilmDB')->resultset('Actor'); |
166 | } |
167 | |
168 | In short, there are three techniques available for obtaining a DBIC |
169 | resultset object: |
170 | |
171 | # the long way |
172 | my $rs = $c->model('FilmDB')->schema->resultset('Actor'); |
173 | |
174 | # using the shortcut method on the model object |
175 | my $rs = $c->model('FilmDB')->resultset('Actor'); |
176 | |
177 | # using the generated class directly |
178 | my $rs = $c->model('FilmDB::Actor'); |
179 | |
c082639a |
180 | In order to add methods to a DBIC resultset, you cannot simply add them to |
181 | the source (row, table) definition class; you must define a separate custom |
182 | resultset class. See L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Cookbook/"Predefined searches"> |
183 | for more info. |

185 | =head1 CONFIG PARAMETERS |
186 | |
187 | =over 4 |
188 | |
189 | =item schema_class |
190 | |
191 | This is the classname of your L<DBIx::Class::Schema> Schema. It needs |
aabc1d75 |
192 | to be findable in C<@INC>, but it does not need to be inside the |
193 | C<Catalyst::Model::> namespace. This parameter is required. |
ad91060a |
194 | |
195 | =item connect_info |
196 | |
197 | This is an arrayref of connection parameters, which are specific to your |
b9a72351 |
198 | C<storage_type> (see your storage type documentation for more details). |
199 | If you only need one parameter (e.g. the DSN), you can just pass a string |
200 | instead of an arrayref. |
ad91060a |
201 | |
0f2fd2c0 |
202 | This is not required if C<schema_class> already has connection information |
d89e6c8a |
203 | defined inside itself (which isn't highly recommended, but can be done) |
0f2fd2c0 |
204 | |
7db6da78 |
205 | For L<DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI>, which is the only supported |
206 | C<storage_type> in L<DBIx::Class> at the time of this writing, the |
207 | parameters are your dsn, username, password, and connect options hashref. |
208 | |
018eb0e2 |
209 | See L<DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI/connect_info> for a detailed explanation |
210 | of the arguments supported. |
7db6da78 |
211 | |
212 | Examples: |
213 | |
07edc53e |
214 | connect_info => [ 'dbi:Pg:dbname=mypgdb', 'postgres', '' ], |
215 | |
216 | connect_info => [ |
217 | 'dbi:SQLite:dbname=foo.db', |
218 | { |
219 | on_connect_do => [ |
220 | 'PRAGMA synchronous = OFF', |
221 | ], |
222 | } |
223 | ], |
224 | |
225 | connect_info => [ |
226 | 'dbi:Pg:dbname=mypgdb', |
227 | 'postgres', |
228 | '', |
229 | { AutoCommit => 0 }, |
230 | { |
231 | on_connect_do => [ |
232 | 'some SQL statement', |
233 | 'another SQL statement', |
234 | ], |
235 | } |
236 | ], |
7db6da78 |
237 | |
8281c933 |
238 | Or using L<Config::General>: |
239 | |
240 | <Model::FilmDB> |
241 | schema_class MyApp::Schema::FilmDB |
242 | connect_info dbi:Pg:dbname=mypgdb |
243 | connect_info postgres |
244 | connect_info |
245 | <connect_info> |
246 | AutoCommit 0 |
247 | on_connect_do some SQL statement |
248 | on_connect_do another SQL statement |
249 | </connect_info> |
250 | </Model::FilmDB> |
251 | |
252 | or |
253 | |
254 | <Model::FilmDB> |
255 | schema_class MyApp::Schema::FilmDB |
256 | connect_info dbi:SQLite:dbname=foo.db |
257 | </Model::FilmDB> |
258 | |
259 | |
ad91060a |
260 | =item storage_type |
261 | |
262 | Allows the use of a different C<storage_type> than what is set in your |
263 | C<schema_class> (which in turn defaults to C<::DBI> if not set in current |
f1613faa |
264 | L<DBIx::Class>). Completely optional, and probably unnecessary for most |
265 | people until other storage backends become available for L<DBIx::Class>. |

269 | =head1 METHODS |
270 | |
271 | =over 4 |
272 | |
273 | =item new |
274 | |
275 | Instantiates the Model based on the above-documented ->config parameters. |
0f2fd2c0 |
276 | The only required parameter is C<schema_class>. C<connect_info> is |
277 | required in the case that C<schema_class> does not already have connection |
278 | information defined for it. |
ad91060a |
279 | |
f1613faa |
280 | =item schema |
281 | |
282 | Accessor which returns the connected schema being used by the this model. |
283 | There are direct shortcuts on the model class itself for |
284 | schema->resultset, schema->source, and schema->class. |
285 | |
286 | =item composed_schema |
287 | |
288 | Accessor which returns the composed schema, which has no connection info, |
289 | which was used in constructing the C<schema> above. Useful for creating |
290 | new connections based on the same schema/model. There are direct shortcuts |
291 | from the model object for composed_schema->clone and composed_schema->connect |
292 | |
293 | =item clone |
294 | |
295 | Shortcut for ->composed_schema->clone |
296 | |
