108 The purpose of this L<DBIx::Class> component module is to create an
109 audit-trail for all changes made to the data in your database (via a
110 DBIx::Class schema). It creates changesets and assigns each
111 create/update/delete operation an id. The creation and deletion date
112 of each row is stored, as well as the previous contents of any row
115 All queries which want auditing should be called using
116 L<DBIx::Class::Schema/txn_do>, which is used to create changesets for
119 To track who did which changes, the user_id (an integer) of the
120 current user can be set, a session_id can also be set, both are
123 To access the auditing schema to look at the auditdata or revert a
124 change, use C<< $schema->_journal_schema >>.
128 The journal schema contains a number of tables.
134 Each changeset row has an auto-incremented ID, optional user_id and
135 session_id, and a set_date which defaults to the current datetime.
137 A ChangeSet has_many Changes.
141 Each change/operation done in the transaction is recorded as a row in
142 the ChangeLog table. It contains an auto-incrementing ID, the
143 changeset_id and an order column for the ordering of each change in
148 For every table in the original database that is to be audited, an
149 AuditLog table is created. Each auditlog row has an id which will
150 contain the primary key of the table it is associated with. (NB:
151 currently only supports integer-based single column PKs). The
152 create_id and delete_id fields contain the IDs of the Changes that
153 created or deleted this row.
157 For every table in the original database to be audited, an
158 AuditHistory table is created. Each row has a change_id field
159 containing the ID of the ChangeLog row. The other fields correspond to
160 all the fields from the original table. Each time a column value in
161 the original table is changed, the entire row contents before the
162 change are added as a new row in this table.
170 =item journal_connection
172 =item Arguments: \@connect_info
174 Set the connection information for the database to save your audit
175 information to. Leaving this blank assumes you want to store the audit
176 data into your current database.
178 =item journal_sources
180 =item Arguments: \@source_names
182 Set a list of source names you would like to audit, if unset, all
185 NOTE: Currently only sources with a single-column PK are supported, so
186 use this method if you have sources with multi-column PKs.
188 =item journal_storage_type
190 =item Arguments: $storage_type
192 Enter the special storage type of your journal schema if needed. See
193 L<DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI> for more information on storage types.
197 =item Arguments: \@relation_args
199 The user_id column in the L</ChangeSet> will be linked to your user id
200 with a belongs_to relation, if this is set with the appropriate
205 =item Arguments: $user_id
207 Set the user_id for the following changeset(s). This must be an integer.
209 =item changeset_session
211 =item Arguments: $user_id
213 Set the session_id for the following changeset(s). This must be an integer.
217 =item Arguments: $code_ref
221 Overloaded L<DBIx::Class::Schema/txn_do>, this must be used to start a
222 new changeset to cover a group of changes. Each subsequent change to
223 an audited table will use the changeset_id created in the most recent
230 L<DBIx::Class> - You'll need it to use this.
234 Only single-column integer primary key'd tables are supported for auditing so far.
236 Updates made via L<DBIx::Class::ResultSet/update> are not yet supported.
238 No API for viewing or restoring changes yet.
