=head1 DESCRIPTION

A ResultSource is an object that represents a source of data for querying.

This class is a base class for various specialised types of result
sources, for example L<DBIx::Class::ResultSource::Table>. Table is the
default result source type, so one is created for you when defining a
result class as described in the synopsis above.

More specifically, the L<DBIx::Class::Core> base class pulls in the
L<DBIx::Class::ResultSourceProxy::Table> component, which defines
the L<table|DBIx::Class::ResultSourceProxy::Table/table> method.
When called, C<table> creates and stores an instance of
L<DBIx::Class::ResultSoure::Table>. Luckily, to use tables as result
sources, you don't need to remember any of this.

Result sources representing select queries, or views, can also be
created, see L<DBIx::Class::ResultSource::View> for full details.

=head2 Finding result source objects

As mentioned above, a result source instance is created and stored for
you when you define a L<Result Class|DBIx::Class::Manual::Glossary/Result Class>.

You can retrieve the result source at runtime in the following ways:

=over

=item From a Schema object:

   $schema->source($source_name);

=item From a Row object:

   $row->result_source;

=item From a ResultSet object:

   $rs->result_source;

=head2 add_columns

=over

=item Arguments: @columns

=item Return value: The ResultSource object

=back

  $source->add_columns(qw/col1 col2 col3/);

  $source->add_columns('col1' => \%col1_info, 'col2' => \%col2_info, ...);

Adds columns to the result source. If supplied colname => hashref
pairs, uses the hashref as the L</column_info> for that column. Repeated
calls of this method will add more columns, not replace them.

The column names given will be created as accessor methods on your
L<DBIx::Class::Row> objects. You can change the name of the accessor
by supplying an L</accessor> in the column_info hash.

If a column name beginning with a plus sign ('+col1') is provided, the
attributes provided will be merged with any existing attributes for the
column, with the new attributes taking precedence in the case that an
attribute already exists. Using this without a hashref
(C<< $source->add_columns(qw/+col1 +col2/) >>) is legal, but useless --
it does the same thing it would do without the plus.

The contents of the column_info are not set in stone. The following
keys are currently recognised/used by DBIx::Class:

=over 4

=item accessor

   { accessor => '_name' }

   # example use, replace standard accessor with one of your own:
   sub name {
       my ($self, $value) = @_;

       die "Name cannot contain digits!" if($value =~ /\d/);
       $self->_name($value);

       return $self->_name();
   }

Use this to set the name of the accessor method for this column. If unset,
the name of the column will be used.

=item data_type

   { data_type => 'integer' }

This contains the column type. It is automatically filled if you use the
L<SQL::Translator::Producer::DBIx::Class::File> producer, or the
L<DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader> module.

Currently there is no standard set of values for the data_type. Use
whatever your database supports.

=item size

   { size => 20 }

The length of your column, if it is a column type that can have a size
restriction. This is currently only used to create tables from your
schema, see L<DBIx::Class::Schema/deploy>.

=item is_nullable

   { is_nullable => 1 }

Set this to a true value for a columns that is allowed to contain NULL
values, default is false. This is currently only used to create tables
from your schema, see L<DBIx::Class::Schema/deploy>.

=item is_auto_increment

   { is_auto_increment => 1 }

Set this to a true value for a column whose value is somehow
automatically set, defaults to false. This is used to determine which
columns to empty when cloning objects using
L<DBIx::Class::Row/copy>. It is also used by
L<DBIx::Class::Schema/deploy>.

=item is_numeric

   { is_numeric => 1 }

Set this to a true or false value (not C<undef>) to explicitly specify
if this column contains numeric data. This controls how set_column
decides whether to consider a column dirty after an update: if
C<is_numeric> is true a numeric comparison C<< != >> will take place
instead of the usual C<eq>

If not specified the storage class will attempt to figure this out on
first access to the column, based on the column C<data_type>. The
result will be cached in this attribute.

=item is_foreign_key

   { is_foreign_key => 1 }

Set this to a true value for a column that contains a key from a
foreign table, defaults to false. This is currently only used to
create tables from your schema, see L<DBIx::Class::Schema/deploy>.

=item default_value

   { default_value => \'now()' }

Set this to the default value which will be inserted into a column by
the database. Can contain either a value or a function (use a
reference to a scalar e.g. C<\'now()'> if you want a function). This
is currently only used to create tables from your schema, see
L<DBIx::Class::Schema/deploy>.

See the note on L<DBIx::Class::Row/new> for more information about possible
issues related to db-side default values.

=item sequence

   { sequence => 'my_table_seq' }

Set this on a primary key column to the name of the sequence used to
generate a new key value. If not specified, L<DBIx::Class::PK::Auto>
will attempt to retrieve the name of the sequence from the database
automatically.

=item auto_nextval

Set this to a true value for a column whose value is retrieved automatically
from a sequence or function (if supported by your Storage driver.) For a
sequence, if you do not use a trigger to get the nextval, you have to set the
L</sequence> value as well.

Also set this for MSSQL columns with the 'uniqueidentifier'
L<data_type|DBIx::Class::ResultSource/data_type> whose values you want to
automatically generate using C<NEWID()>, unless they are a primary key in which
case this will be done anyway.

=item extra

This is used by L<DBIx::Class::Schema/deploy> and L<SQL::Translator>
to add extra non-generic data to the column. For example: C<< extra
=> { unsigned => 1} >> is used by the MySQL producer to set an integer
column to unsigned. For more details, see
L<SQL::Translator::Producer::MySQL>.

Alternatively, you can specify only the columns:

  __PACKAGE__->add_unique_constraint([ qw/column1 column2/ ]);

This will result in a unique constraint named
C<table_column1_column2>, where C<table> is replaced with the table
name.

Unique constraints are used, for example, when you pass the constraint
name as the C<key> attribute to L<DBIx::Class::ResultSet/find>. Then
only columns in the constraint are searched.

Throws an error if any of the given column names do not yet exist on

Return a name for a unique constraint containing the specified

name, using an underscore character.

For example, a constraint on a table named C<cd> containing the columns

  __PACKAGE__->sqlt_deploy_callback('mycallbackmethod');

An accessor to set a callback to be called during deployment of
the schema via L<DBIx::Class::Schema/create_ddl_dir> or
L<DBIx::Class::Schema/deploy>.

The callback can be set as either a code reference or the name of a
method in the current result class.

If not set, the L</default_sqlt_deploy_hook> is called.

Your callback will be passed the $source object representing the
ResultSource instance being deployed, and the
L<SQL::Translator::Schema::Table> object being created from it. The
callback can be used to manipulate the table object or add your own
customised indexes. If you need to manipulate a non-table object, use
the L<DBIx::Class::Schema/sqlt_deploy_hook>.

See L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Cookbook/Adding Indexes And Functions To
Your SQL> for examples.

This sqlt deployment callback can only be used to manipulate
SQL::Translator objects as they get turned into SQL. To execute
post-deploy statements which SQL::Translator does not currently
handle, override L<DBIx::Class::Schema/deploy> in your Schema class
and call L<dbh_do|DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI/dbh_do>.

  $source->add_relationship('relname', 'related_source', $cond, $attrs);

L<DBIx::Class::Relationship> describes a series of methods which
create pre-defined useful types of relationships. Look there first
before using this method directly.

The relationship name can be arbitrary, but must be unique for each
relationship attached to this result source. 'related_source' should
be the name with which the related result source was registered with
the current schema. For example:

  $schema->source('Book')->add_relationship('reviews', 'Review', {
    'foreign.book_id' => 'self.id',
  });

The condition C<$cond> needs to be an L<SQL::Abstract>-style
representation of the join between the tables. For example, if you're
creating a relation from Author to Book,

  { 'foreign.author_id' => 'self.id' }

will result in the JOIN clause

  author me JOIN book foreign ON foreign.author_id = me.id

You can specify as many foreign => self mappings as necessary.

Valid attributes are as follows:

=over 4

=item join_type

Explicitly specifies the type of join to use in the relationship. Any
SQL join type is valid, e.g. C<LEFT> or C<RIGHT>. It will be placed in
the SQL command immediately before C<JOIN>.

=item proxy

An arrayref containing a list of accessors in the foreign class to proxy in
the main class. If, for example, you do the following:

  CD->might_have(liner_notes => 'LinerNotes', undef, {
    proxy => [ qw/notes/ ],
  });

Then, assuming LinerNotes has an accessor named notes, you can do:

  my $cd = CD->find(1);
  # set notes -- LinerNotes object is created if it doesn't exist
  $cd->notes('Notes go here');

=item accessor

Specifies the type of accessor that should be created for the
relationship. Valid values are C<single> (for when there is only a single
related object), C<multi> (when there can be many), and C<filter> (for
when there is a single related object, but you also want the relationship
accessor to double as a column accessor). For C<multi> accessors, an
add_to_* method is also created, which calls C<create_related> for the
relationship.

=back

Throws an exception if the condition is improperly supplied, or cannot
be resolved.

Looks through all the relationships on the source this relationship
points to, looking for one whose condition is the reverse of the

A common use of this is to find the name of the C<belongs_to> relation
opposing a C<has_many> relation. For definition of these look in
L<DBIx::Class::Relationship>.

The returned hashref is keyed by the name of the opposing
relationship, and contains its data in the same manner as
