=head1 SYNOPSIS

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class is responsible for defining and doing basic operations on 
L<DBIx::Class> objects.

sub _register_columns {
  my ($class, @cols) = @_;
  my $names = { %{$class->_columns} };
  while (my $col = shift @cols) {

}

  my ($class, @cols) = @_;
  $class->mk_group_accessors('column' => @cols);
}

=item add_columns

  __PACKAGE__->add_columns(qw/col1 col2 col3/);

Adds columns to the current package, and creates accessors for them

=cut

sub add_columns {
  my ($class, @cols) = @_;
  $class->_register_columns(@cols);
  $class->_mk_column_accessors(@cols);
}

sub resultset_instance {

}

  my $class = shift;
  my $rs_class = $class->_resultset_class;
  eval "use $rs_class;";
  return $rs_class->new($class);
}

=item search_like

Identical to search except defaults to 'LIKE' instead of '=' in condition

=cut

  my $class    = shift;
  my $attrs = { };
  if (@_ > 1 && ref $_[$#_] eq 'HASH') {

=item table

  __PACKAGE__->table('tbl_name');

=cut

sub table {
  shift->_table_name(@_);
}

=item find_or_create

  $class->find_or_create({ key => $val, ... });

Searches for a record matching the search condition; if it doesn't find one,
creates one and returns that instead

=cut

sub find_or_create {
  my $class    = shift;
