1 (Potential) Features for 0.09
2 =============================
4 Subselects - everyone wants these
5 - Will require new/improved SQL::Abstract
6 - The API will involve passing ResultSets to searches as conditions/values/whatever.
8 Row/find caching - would be pretty useful
9 - Need to have good definitions of when the cache should be queried and when invalidated
10 - Be able to supply own expiry?
11 - Be able to invalidate manually? Single item / entire cache / single table
13 Deprecate compose_connection / DB.pm
14 - Everyone has probably forgotten what this is anyway..
18 - "belongs_to" to "contains/refers/something"
19 - order_by to take a arrayref/hashref so it also just works with quoting
22 Using inflated objects/references as values in searches
23 - Goes together with subselects above
24 - should deflate then run search
26 FilterColumn - like Inflate, only for changing scalar values
27 - This seems to be vaporware atm..
29 SQL/API feature complete?
31 - proper join conditions!
32 - function calls on the LHS of conditions..
37 - slow on mysql, speedup?
38 - multi has_many prefetch
39 - paging working with prefetch
41 Magically "discover" needed joins/prefetches and add them
42 - eg $books->search({ 'author.name' => 'Fred'}), autoadds: join => 'author'
43 - also guess aliases when supplying column names that are on joined/related tables
45 Metamodel stuff - introspection
47 Storage API/restructure
48 - call update/insert etc on the ResultSource, which then calls to storage
49 - handle different storages/db-specific code better
50 - better cross-db code .. eg LIKE/ILIKE
53 - single vs filter, discrepancies.. remove one of them and make behave the same?
56 - be able to extract/view/dump what the SQL is *going to* be before running it
57 - bind params sanity? (order of bind params broken when using a resultsource based on a select statement)
60 Joining/searching weird attribute tables?
61 - Support legacy/badly designed junk better..
63 Documentation - improvements
64 - better indexing for finding of stuff in general
65 - more cross-referencing of docs
