23 DBIx::Class::ResultSet - Represents a query used for fetching a set of results.
27 my $users_rs = $schema->resultset('User');
28 my $registered_users_rs = $schema->resultset('User')->search({ registered => 1 });
29 my @cds_in_2005 = $schema->resultset('CD')->search({ year => 2005 })->all();
33 A ResultSet is an object which stores a set of conditions representing
34 a query. It is the backbone of DBIx::Class (i.e. the really
35 important/useful bit).
37 No SQL is executed on the database when a ResultSet is created, it
38 just stores all the conditions needed to create the query.
40 A basic ResultSet representing the data of an entire table is returned
41 by calling C<resultset> on a L<DBIx::Class::Schema> and passing in a
42 L<Source|DBIx::Class::Manual::Glossary/Source> name.
44 my $users_rs = $schema->resultset('User');
46 A new ResultSet is returned from calling L</search> on an existing
47 ResultSet. The new one will contain all the conditions of the
48 original, plus any new conditions added in the C<search> call.
50 A ResultSet also incorporates an implicit iterator. L</next> and L</reset>
51 can be used to walk through all the L<DBIx::Class::Row>s the ResultSet
54 The query that the ResultSet represents is B<only> executed against
55 the database when these methods are called:
56 L</find> L</next> L</all> L</first> L</single> L</count>
60 =head2 Chaining resultsets
62 Let's say you've got a query that needs to be run to return some data
63 to the user. But, you have an authorization system in place that
64 prevents certain users from seeing certain information. So, you want
65 to construct the basic query in one method, but add constraints to it in
70 my $request = $self->get_request; # Get a request object somehow.
71 my $schema = $self->get_schema; # Get the DBIC schema object somehow.
73 my $cd_rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search({
74 title => $request->param('title'),
75 year => $request->param('year'),
78 $self->apply_security_policy( $cd_rs );
83 sub apply_security_policy {
92 =head3 Resolving conditions and attributes
94 When a resultset is chained from another resultset, conditions and
95 attributes with the same keys need resolving.
97 L</join>, L</prefetch>, L</+select>, L</+as> attributes are merged
98 into the existing ones from the original resultset.
100 The L</where>, L</having> attribute, and any search conditions are
101 merged with an SQL C<AND> to the existing condition from the original
104 All other attributes are overridden by any new ones supplied in the
107 =head2 Multiple queries
109 Since a resultset just defines a query, you can do all sorts of
110 things with it with the same object.
112 # Don't hit the DB yet.
113 my $cd_rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search({
114 title => 'something',
118 # Each of these hits the DB individually.
119 my $count = $cd_rs->count;
120 my $most_recent = $cd_rs->get_column('date_released')->max();
121 my @records = $cd_rs->all;
123 And it's not just limited to SELECT statements.
129 $cd_rs->create({ artist => 'Fred' });
131 Which is the same as:
133 $schema->resultset('CD')->create({
134 title => 'something',
139 See: L</search>, L</count>, L</get_column>, L</all>, L</create>.
143 If a resultset is used in a numeric context it returns the L</count>.
144 However, if it is used in a booleand context it is always true. So if
145 you want to check if a resultset has any results use C<if $rs != 0>.
146 C<if $rs> will always be true.
154 =item Arguments: $source, \%$attrs
156 =item Return Value: $rs
160 The resultset constructor. Takes a source object (usually a
161 L<DBIx::Class::ResultSourceProxy::Table>) and an attribute hash (see
162 L</ATTRIBUTES> below). Does not perform any queries -- these are
163 executed as needed by the other methods.
165 Generally you won't need to construct a resultset manually. You'll
166 automatically get one from e.g. a L</search> called in scalar context:
168 my $rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search({ title => '100th Window' });
170 IMPORTANT: If called on an object, proxies to new_result instead so
172 my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->new({ title => 'Spoon' });
174 will return a CD object, not a ResultSet.

418 Finds a row based on its primary key or unique constraint. For example, to find
419 a row by its primary key:
421 my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->find(5);
423 You can also find a row by a specific unique constraint using the C<key>
424 attribute. For example:
426 my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->find('Massive Attack', 'Mezzanine', {
427 key => 'cd_artist_title'
430 Additionally, you can specify the columns explicitly by name:
432 my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->find(
434 artist => 'Massive Attack',
435 title => 'Mezzanine',
437 { key => 'cd_artist_title' }
440 If the C<key> is specified as C<primary>, it searches only on the primary key.
442 If no C<key> is specified, it searches on all unique constraints defined on the
443 source for which column data is provided, including the primary key.
445 If your table does not have a primary key, you B<must> provide a value for the
446 C<key> attribute matching one of the unique constraints on the source.
448 In addition to C<key>, L</find> recognizes and applies standard
449 L<resultset attributes|/ATTRIBUTES> in the same way as L</search> does.
451 Note: If your query does not return only one row, a warning is generated:
453 Query returned more than one row

1720 For the arrayref of hashrefs style each hashref should be a structure suitable
1721 forsubmitting to a $resultset->create(...) method.
1723 In void context, C<insert_bulk> in L<DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI> is used
1724 to insert the data, as this is a faster method.
1726 Otherwise, each set of data is inserted into the database using
1727 L<DBIx::Class::ResultSet/create>, and the resulting objects are
1728 accumulated into an array. The array itself, or an array reference
1729 is returned depending on scalar or list context.
1731 Example: Assuming an Artist Class that has many CDs Classes relating:
1733 my $Artist_rs = $schema->resultset("Artist");
1735 ## Void Context Example
1736 $Artist_rs->populate([
1737 { artistid => 4, name => 'Manufactured Crap', cds => [
1738 { title => 'My First CD', year => 2006 },
1739 { title => 'Yet More Tweeny-Pop crap', year => 2007 },

1743 { title => 'My parents sold me to a record company' ,year => 2005 },
1744 { title => 'Why Am I So Ugly?', year => 2006 },
1745 { title => 'I Got Surgery and am now Popular', year => 2007 }
1750 ## Array Context Example
1751 my ($ArtistOne, $ArtistTwo, $ArtistThree) = $Artist_rs->populate([
1752 { name => "Artist One"},
1753 { name => "Artist Two"},
1754 { name => "Artist Three", cds=> [
1755 { title => "First CD", year => 2007},
1756 { title => "Second CD", year => 2008},
1760 print $ArtistOne->name; ## response is 'Artist One'
1761 print $ArtistThree->cds->count ## reponse is '2'
1763 For the arrayref of arrayrefs style, the first element should be a list of the
1764 fieldsnames to which the remaining elements are rows being inserted. For
1767 $Arstist_rs->populate([
1768 [qw/artistid name/],
1769 [100, 'A Formally Unknown Singer'],
1770 [101, 'A singer that jumped the shark two albums ago'],
1771 [102, 'An actually cool singer.'],
1774 Please note an important effect on your data when choosing between void and
1775 wantarray context. Since void context goes straight to C<insert_bulk> in
1776 L<DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI> this will skip any component that is overriding
1777 C<insert>. So if you are using something like L<DBIx-Class-UUIDColumns> to

2234 Attempt to create a single new row or a row with multiple related rows
2235 in the table represented by the resultset (and related tables). This
2236 will not check for duplicate rows before inserting, use
2237 L</find_or_create> to do that.
2239 To create one row for this resultset, pass a hashref of key/value
2240 pairs representing the columns of the table and the values you wish to
2241 store. If the appropriate relationships are set up, foreign key fields
2242 can also be passed an object representing the foreign row, and the
2243 value will be set to its primary key.
2245 To create related objects, pass a hashref of related-object column values
2246 B<keyed on the relationship name>. If the relationship is of type C<multi>
2247 (L<DBIx::Class::Relationship/has_many>) - pass an arrayref of hashrefs.
2248 The process will correctly identify columns holding foreign keys, and will
2249 transparrently populate them from the keys of the corresponding relation.
2250 This can be applied recursively, and will work correctly for a structure
2251 with an arbitrary depth and width, as long as the relationships actually
2252 exists and the correct column data has been supplied.
2255 Instead of hashrefs of plain related data (key/value pairs), you may
2256 also pass new or inserted objects. New objects (not inserted yet, see

3147 # XXX: FIXME: Attributes docs need clearing up
3151 Attributes are used to refine a ResultSet in various ways when
3152 searching for data. They can be passed to any method which takes an
3153 C<\%attrs> argument. See L</search>, L</search_rs>, L</find>,
3156 These are in no particular order:
3162 =item Value: ( $order_by | \@order_by | \%order_by )
3166 Which column(s) to order the results by.
3168 [The full list of suitable values is documented in
3169 L<SQL::Abstract/"ORDER BY CLAUSES">; the following is a summary of
3172 If a single column name, or an arrayref of names is supplied, the
3173 argument is passed through directly to SQL. The hashref syntax allows
3174 for connection-agnostic specification of ordering direction:
3176 For descending order:
3178 order_by => { -desc => [qw/col1 col2 col3/] }
3180 For explicit ascending order:
3182 order_by => { -asc => 'col' }
3184 The old scalarref syntax (i.e. order_by => \'year DESC') is still
3185 supported, although you are strongly encouraged to use the hashref
3186 syntax as outlined above.
3192 =item Value: \@columns
3196 Shortcut to request a particular set of columns to be retrieved. Each
3197 column spec may be a string (a table column name), or a hash (in which
3198 case the key is the C<as> value, and the value is used as the C<select>
3199 expression). Adds C<me.> onto the start of any column without a C<.> in
3200 it and sets C<select> from that, then auto-populates C<as> from
3201 C<select> as normal. (You may also use the C<cols> attribute, as in
3202 earlier versions of DBIC.)
3208 =item Value: \@columns
3212 Indicates additional columns to be selected from storage. Works the same
3213 as L</columns> but adds columns to the selection. (You may also use the
3214 C<include_columns> attribute, as in earlier versions of DBIC). For
3217 $schema->resultset('CD')->search(undef, {
3218 '+columns' => ['artist.name'],
3222 would return all CDs and include a 'name' column to the information
3223 passed to object inflation. Note that the 'artist' is the name of the
3224 column (or relationship) accessor, and 'name' is the name of the column
3225 accessor in the related table.
3227 =head2 include_columns
3231 =item Value: \@columns
3235 Deprecated. Acts as a synonym for L</+columns> for backward compatibility.
3241 =item Value: \@select_columns
3245 Indicates which columns should be selected from the storage. You can use
3246 column names, or in the case of RDBMS back ends, function or stored procedure
3249 $rs = $schema->resultset('Employee')->search(undef, {
3252 { count => 'employeeid' },
3257 When you use function/stored procedure names and do not supply an C<as>
3258 attribute, the column names returned are storage-dependent. E.g. MySQL would
3259 return a column named C<count(employeeid)> in the above example.
3265 Indicates additional columns to be selected from storage. Works the same as
3266 L</select> but adds columns to the selection.
3274 Indicates additional column names for those added via L</+select>. See L</as>.
3282 =item Value: \@inflation_names
3286 Indicates column names for object inflation. That is, C<as>
3287 indicates the name that the column can be accessed as via the
3288 C<get_column> method (or via the object accessor, B<if one already
3289 exists>). It has nothing to do with the SQL code C<SELECT foo AS bar>.
3291 The C<as> attribute is used in conjunction with C<select>,
3292 usually when C<select> contains one or more function or stored
3295 $rs = $schema->resultset('Employee')->search(undef, {
3298 { count => 'employeeid' }
3300 as => ['name', 'employee_count'],
3303 my $employee = $rs->first(); # get the first Employee
3305 If the object against which the search is performed already has an accessor
3306 matching a column name specified in C<as>, the value can be retrieved using
3307 the accessor as normal:
3309 my $name = $employee->name();
3311 If on the other hand an accessor does not exist in the object, you need to
3312 use C<get_column> instead:
3314 my $employee_count = $employee->get_column('employee_count');
3316 You can create your own accessors if required - see
3317 L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Cookbook> for details.
3319 Please note: This will NOT insert an C<AS employee_count> into the SQL
3320 statement produced, it is used for internal access only. Thus
3321 attempting to use the accessor in an C<order_by> clause or similar
3322 will fail miserably.
3324 To get around this limitation, you can supply literal SQL to your
3325 C<select> attibute that contains the C<AS alias> text, eg:
3327 select => [\'myfield AS alias']
3333 =item Value: ($rel_name | \@rel_names | \%rel_names)
3337 Contains a list of relationships that should be joined for this query. For
3340 # Get CDs by Nine Inch Nails
3341 my $rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search(
3342 { 'artist.name' => 'Nine Inch Nails' },
3343 { join => 'artist' }
3346 Can also contain a hash reference to refer to the other relation's relations.
3349 package MyApp::Schema::Track;
3350 use base qw/DBIx::Class/;
3351 __PACKAGE__->table('track');
3352 __PACKAGE__->add_columns(qw/trackid cd position title/);
3353 __PACKAGE__->set_primary_key('trackid');
3354 __PACKAGE__->belongs_to(cd => 'MyApp::Schema::CD');
3357 # In your application
3358 my $rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search(
3359 { 'track.title' => 'Teardrop' },
3361 join => { cd => 'track' },
3362 order_by => 'artist.name',
3366 You need to use the relationship (not the table) name in conditions,
3367 because they are aliased as such. The current table is aliased as "me", so
3368 you need to use me.column_name in order to avoid ambiguity. For example:
3370 # Get CDs from 1984 with a 'Foo' track
3371 my $rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search(
3374 'tracks.name' => 'Foo'
3376 { join => 'tracks' }
3379 If the same join is supplied twice, it will be aliased to <rel>_2 (and
3380 similarly for a third time). For e.g.
3382 my $rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search({
3383 'cds.title' => 'Down to Earth',
3384 'cds_2.title' => 'Popular',
3386 join => [ qw/cds cds/ ],
3389 will return a set of all artists that have both a cd with title 'Down
3390 to Earth' and a cd with title 'Popular'.
3392 If you want to fetch related objects from other tables as well, see C<prefetch>
3395 For more help on using joins with search, see L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Joining>.
3401 =item Value: ($rel_name | \@rel_names | \%rel_names)
3405 Contains one or more relationships that should be fetched along with
3406 the main query (when they are accessed afterwards the data will
3407 already be available, without extra queries to the database). This is
3408 useful for when you know you will need the related objects, because it
3409 saves at least one query:
3411 my $rs = $schema->resultset('Tag')->search(
3420 The initial search results in SQL like the following:
3422 SELECT tag.*, cd.*, artist.* FROM tag
3423 JOIN cd ON tag.cd = cd.cdid
3424 JOIN artist ON cd.artist = artist.artistid
3426 L<DBIx::Class> has no need to go back to the database when we access the
3427 C<cd> or C<artist> relationships, which saves us two SQL statements in this
3430 Simple prefetches will be joined automatically, so there is no need
3431 for a C<join> attribute in the above search.
3433 C<prefetch> can be used with the following relationship types: C<belongs_to>,
3434 C<has_one> (or if you're using C<add_relationship>, any relationship declared
3435 with an accessor type of 'single' or 'filter'). A more complex example that
3436 prefetches an artists cds, the tracks on those cds, and the tags associted
3437 with that artist is given below (assuming many-to-many from artists to tags):
3439 my $rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search(
3443 { cds => 'tracks' },
3444 { artist_tags => 'tags' }
3450 B<NOTE:> If you specify a C<prefetch> attribute, the C<join> and C<select>
3451 attributes will be ignored.
3453 B<CAVEATs>: Prefetch does a lot of deep magic. As such, it may not behave
3454 exactly as you might expect.
3460 Prefetch uses the L</cache> to populate the prefetched relationships. This
3461 may or may not be what you want.
3465 If you specify a condition on a prefetched relationship, ONLY those
3466 rows that match the prefetched condition will be fetched into that relationship.
3467 This means that adding prefetch to a search() B<may alter> what is returned by
3468 traversing a relationship. So, if you have C<< Artist->has_many(CDs) >> and you do
3470 my $artist_rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search({
3476 my $count = $artist_rs->first->cds->count;
3478 my $artist_rs_prefetch = $artist_rs->search( {}, { prefetch => 'cds' } );
3480 my $prefetch_count = $artist_rs_prefetch->first->cds->count;
3482 cmp_ok( $count, '==', $prefetch_count, "Counts should be the same" );
3484 that cmp_ok() may or may not pass depending on the datasets involved. This
3485 behavior may or may not survive the 0.09 transition.
3497 Makes the resultset paged and specifies the page to retrieve. Effectively
3498 identical to creating a non-pages resultset and then calling ->page($page)
3501 If L<rows> attribute is not specified it defaults to 10 rows per page.
3503 When you have a paged resultset, L</count> will only return the number
3504 of rows in the page. To get the total, use the L</pager> and call
3505 C<total_entries> on it.
3515 Specifes the maximum number of rows for direct retrieval or the number of
3516 rows per page if the page attribute or method is used.
3522 =item Value: $offset
3526 Specifies the (zero-based) row number for the first row to be returned, or the
3527 of the first row of the first page if paging is used.
3533 =item Value: \@columns
3537 A arrayref of columns to group by. Can include columns of joined tables.
3539 group_by => [qw/ column1 column2 ... /]
3545 =item Value: $condition
3549 HAVING is a select statement attribute that is applied between GROUP BY and
3550 ORDER BY. It is applied to the after the grouping calculations have been
3553 having => { 'count(employee)' => { '>=', 100 } }
3559 =item Value: (0 | 1)
3563 Set to 1 to group by all columns. If the resultset already has a group_by
3564 attribute, this setting is ignored and an appropriate warning is issued.
3570 Adds to the WHERE clause.
3572 # only return rows WHERE deleted IS NULL for all searches
3573 __PACKAGE__->resultset_attributes({ where => { deleted => undef } }); )
3575 Can be overridden by passing C<< { where => undef } >> as an attribute
3582 Set to 1 to cache search results. This prevents extra SQL queries if you
3583 revisit rows in your ResultSet:
