=head1 NAME

DBIx::Class::Fixtures

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use DBIx::Class::Fixtures;

  ...

  my $fixtures = DBIx::Class::Fixtures->new({ config_dir => '/home/me/app/fixture_configs' });

  $fixtures->dump({
    config => 'set_config.json',
    schema => $source_dbic_schema,
    directory => '/home/me/app/fixtures'
  });

  $fixtures->populate({
    directory => '/home/me/app/fixtures',
    ddl => '/home/me/app/sql/ddl.sql',
    connection_details => ['dbi:mysql:dbname=app_dev', 'me', 'password'],
    post_ddl => '/home/me/app/sql/post_ddl.sql',
  });

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Dump fixtures from source database to filesystem then import to another database (with same schema)
at any time. Use as a constant dataset for running tests against or for populating development databases
when impractical to use production clones. Describe fixture set using relations and conditions based 
on your DBIx::Class schema.

=head1 DEFINE YOUR FIXTURE SET

Fixture sets are currently defined in .json files which must reside in your config_dir 
(e.g. /home/me/app/fixture_configs/a_fixture_set.json). They describe which data to pull and dump 
from the source database.

For example:

    {
        sets: [{
            class: 'Artist',
            ids: ['1', '3']
        }, {
            class: 'Producer',
            ids: ['5'],
            fetch: [{
                rel: 'artists',
                quantity: '2'
            }]
        }] 
    }

This will fetch artists with primary keys 1 and 3, the producer with primary key 5 and two of producer 5's 
artists where 'artists' is a has_many DBIx::Class rel from Producer to Artist.

The top level attributes are as follows:

=head2 sets

Sets must be an array of hashes, as in the example given above. Each set defines a set of objects to be
included in the fixtures. For details on valid set attributes see L</SET ATTRIBUTES> below.

=head2 rules

Rules place general conditions on classes. For example if whenever an artist was dumped you also wanted all
of their cds dumped too, then you could use a rule to specify this. For example:

    {
        sets: [{
            class: 'Artist',
            ids: ['1', '3']
        }, {
            class: 'Producer',
            ids: ['5'],
            fetch: [{ 
                rel: 'artists',
                quantity: '2'
            }]
        }],
        rules: {
            Artist: {
                fetch: [{
                    rel: 'cds',
                    quantity: 'all'
                }]
            }
        }
    }

In this case all the cds of artists 1, 3 and all producer 5's artists will be dumped as well. Note that 'cds' is a
has_many DBIx::Class relation from Artist to CD. This is eqivalent to:

    {
        sets: [{
            class: 'Artist',
            ids: ['1', '3'],
            fetch: [{
                rel: 'cds',
                quantity: 'all'
            }]
        }, {
            class: 'Producer',
            ids: ['5'],
            fetch: [{ 
                rel: 'artists',
                quantity: '2',
                fetch: [{
                    rel: 'cds',
                    quantity: 'all'
                }]
            }]
        }]
    }

rules must be a hash keyed by class name.

L</RULE ATTRIBUTES>

=head2 includes

To prevent repetition between configs you can include other configs. For example:

    {
        sets: [{
            class: 'Producer',
            ids: ['5']
        }],
        includes: [{
            file: 'base.json'
        }]
    }

Includes must be an arrayref of hashrefs where the hashrefs have key 'file' which is the name of another config
file in the same directory. The original config is merged with its includes using Hash::Merge.

=head2 datetime_relative

Only available for MySQL and PostgreSQL at the moment, must be a value that DateTime::Format::*
can parse. For example:

    {
        sets: [{
            class: 'RecentItems',
            ids: ['9']
        }],
        datetime_relative : "2007-10-30 00:00:00"
    }

This will work when dumping from a MySQL database and will cause any datetime fields (where datatype => 'datetime' 
in the column def of the schema class) to be dumped as a DateTime::Duration object relative to the date specified in
the datetime_relative value. For example if the RecentItem object had a date field set to 2007-10-25, then when the
fixture is imported the field will be set to 5 days in the past relative to the current time.

=head2 might_have

Specifies whether to automatically dump might_have relationships. Should be a hash with one attribute - fetch. Set fetch to 1 or 0.

    {
        might_have: {
            fetch: 1
        },
        sets: [{
            class: 'Artist',
            ids: ['1', '3']
        }, {
            class: 'Producer',
            ids: ['5']
        }]
    }

Note: belongs_to rels are automatically dumped whether you like it or not, this is to avoid FKs to nowhere when importing.
General rules on has_many rels are not accepted at this top level, but you can turn them on for individual
sets - see L</SET ATTRIBUTES>.

=head1 SET ATTRIBUTES

=head2 class

Required attribute. Specifies the DBIx::Class object class you wish to dump.

=head2 ids

Array of primary key ids to fetch, basically causing an $rs->find($_) for each. If the id is not in the source db then it
just won't get dumped, no warnings or death.

=head2 quantity

Must be either an integer or the string 'all'. Specifying an integer will effectively set the 'rows' attribute on the resultset clause,
specifying 'all' will cause the rows attribute to be left off and for all matching rows to be dumped. There's no randomising
here, it's just the first x rows.

=head2 cond

A hash specifying the conditions dumped objects must match. Essentially this is a JSON representation of a DBIx::Class search clause. For example:

    {
        sets: [{
            class: 'Artist',
            quantiy: 'all',
            cond: { name: 'Dave' }
        }]
    }

This will dump all artists whose name is 'dave'. Essentially $artist_rs->search({ name => 'Dave' })->all.

Sometimes in a search clause it's useful to use scalar refs to do things like:

$artist_rs->search({ no1_singles => \'> no1_albums' })

This could be specified in the cond hash like so:

    {
        sets: [{
            class: 'Artist',
            quantiy: 'all',
            cond: { no1_singles: '\> no1_albums' }
        }]
    }

So if the value starts with a backslash the value is made a scalar ref before being passed to search.

=head2 join

An array of relationships to be used in the cond clause.

    {
        sets: [{
            class: 'Artist',
            quantiy: 'all',
            cond: { 'cds.position': { '>': 4 } },
            join: ['cds']
        }]
    }

Fetch all artists who have cds with position greater than 4.

=head2 fetch

Must be an array of hashes. Specifies which rels to also dump. For example:

    {
        sets: [{
            class: 'Artist',
            ids: ['1', '3'],
            fetch: [{
                rel: 'cds',
                quantity: '3',
                cond: { position: '2' }
            }]
        }]
    }

Will cause the cds of artists 1 and 3 to be dumped where the cd position is 2.

Valid attributes are: 'rel', 'quantity', 'cond', 'has_many', 'might_have' and 'join'. rel is the name of the DBIx::Class
rel to follow, the rest are the same as in the set attributes. quantity is necessary for has_many relationships,
but not if using for belongs_to or might_have relationships.

=head2 has_many

Specifies whether to fetch has_many rels for this set. Must be a hash containing keys fetch and quantity. 

Set fetch to 1 if you want to fetch them, and quantity to either 'all' or an integer.

Be careful here, dumping has_many rels can lead to a lot of data being dumped.

=head2 might_have

As with has_many but for might_have relationships. Quantity doesn't do anything in this case.

This value will be inherited by all fetches in this set. This is not true for the has_many attribute.

  $fixtures->populate({
    directory => '/home/me/app/fixtures', # directory to look for fixtures in, as specified to dump
    ddl => '/home/me/app/sql/ddl.sql', # DDL to deploy
    connection_details => ['dbi:mysql:dbname=app_dev', 'me', 'password'], # database to clear, deploy and then populate
    post_ddl => '/home/me/app/sql/post_ddl.sql', # DDL to deploy after populating records, ie. FK constraints
    cascade => 1, # use CASCADE option when dropping tables
  });

In this case the database app_dev will be cleared of all tables, then the specified DDL deployed to it,
then finally all fixtures found in /home/me/app/fixtures will be added to it. populate will generate
its own DBIx::Class schema from the DDL rather than being passed one to use. This is better as
custom insert methods are avoided which can to get in the way. In some cases you might not
have a DDL, and so this method will eventually allow a $schema object to be passed instead.

If needed, you can specify a post_ddl attribute which is a DDL to be applied after all the fixtures
have been added to the database. A good use of this option would be to add foreign key constraints
since databases like Postgresql cannot disable foreign key checks.

If your tables have foreign key constraints you may want to use the cascade attribute which will
make the drop table functionality cascade, ie 'DROP TABLE $table CASCADE'.

directory, dll and connection_details are all required attributes.
