235 It is possible to comment out classes with a leading C<#>, but note that perl
236 will think it's a mistake (trying to use a comment in a qw list), so you'll

323 This is an alternative to L</load_classes> above which assumes an alternative
324 layout for automatic class loading. It assumes that all result
325 classes are underneath a sub-namespace of the schema called C<Result>, any
326 corresponding ResultSet classes are underneath a sub-namespace of the schema
329 Both of the sub-namespaces are configurable if you don't like the defaults,
330 via the options C<result_namespace> and C<resultset_namespace>.
332 If (and only if) you specify the option C<default_resultset_class>, any found
333 Result classes for which we do not find a corresponding
334 ResultSet class will have their C<resultset_class> set to
335 C<default_resultset_class>.
337 C<load_namespaces> takes care of calling C<resultset_class> for you where
338 neccessary if you didn't do it for yourself.
340 All of the namespace and classname options to this method are relative to
341 the schema classname by default. To specify a fully-qualified name, prefix
342 it with a literal C<+>.

832 Pass this method a resultsource name, and an arrayref of
833 arrayrefs. The arrayrefs should contain a list of column names,
834 followed by one or many sets of matching data for the given columns.
836 In void context, C<insert_bulk> in L<DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI> is used
837 to insert the data, as this is a fast method. However, insert_bulk currently
838 assumes that your datasets all contain the same type of values, using scalar
839 references in a column in one row, and not in another will probably not work.
841 Otherwise, each set of data is inserted into the database using
842 L<DBIx::Class::ResultSet/create>, and a arrayref of the resulting row
847 $schema->populate('Artist', [
848 [ qw/artistid name/ ],
849 [ 1, 'Popular Band' ],
854 Since wantarray context is basically the same as looping over $rs->create(...)
855 you won't see any performance benefits and in this case the method is more for
856 convenience. Void context sends the column information directly to storage
857 using <DBI>s bulk insert method. So the performance will be much better for
858 storages that support this method.
860 Because of this difference in the way void context inserts rows into your
861 database you need to note how this will effect any loaded components that
862 override or augment insert. For example if you are using a component such
863 as L<DBIx::Class::UUIDColumns> to populate your primary keys you MUST use
864 wantarray context if you want the PKs automatically created.

901 will prefer to call this code reference with the exception as an argument,

904 Your subroutine should probably just wrap the error in the exception
905 object/class of your choosing and rethrow. If, against all sage advice,
906 you'd like your C<exception_action> to suppress a particular exception
907 completely, simply have it return true.

928 =item Arguments: boolean
932 Whether L</throw_exception> should include stack trace information.
933 Defaults to false normally, but defaults to true if C<$ENV{DBIC_TRACE}>
936 =head2 throw_exception
940 =item Arguments: $message
944 Throws an exception. Defaults to using L<Carp::Clan> to report errors from
945 user's perspective. See L</exception_action> for details on overriding
946 this method's behavior. If L</stacktrace> is turned on, C<throw_exception>'s
947 default behavior will provide a detailed stack trace.

955 if !$self->exception_action || !$self->exception_action->(@_);
962 =item Arguments: $sqlt_args, $dir
966 Attempts to deploy the schema to the current storage using L<SQL::Translator>.
968 See L<SQL::Translator/METHODS> for a list of values for C<$sqlt_args>. The most
969 common value for this would be C<< { add_drop_table => 1, } >> to have the SQL
970 produced include a DROP TABLE statement for each table created.
972 Additionally, the DBIx::Class parser accepts a C<sources> parameter as a hash
973 ref or an array ref, containing a list of source to deploy. If present, then
974 only the sources listed will get deployed.
979 my ($self, $sqltargs, $dir) = @_;
980 $self->throw_exception("Can't deploy without storage") unless $self->storage;
981 $self->storage->deploy($self, undef, $sqltargs, $dir);
984 =head2 create_ddl_dir (EXPERIMENTAL)
988 =item Arguments: \@databases, $version, $directory, $preversion, $sqlt_args
992 Creates an SQL file based on the Schema, for each of the specified
993 database types, in the given directory. Given a previous version number,
994 this will also create a file containing the ALTER TABLE statements to
995 transform the previous schema into the current one. Note that these
996 statements may contain DROP TABLE or DROP COLUMN statements that can
997 potentially destroy data.
999 The file names are created using the C<ddl_filename> method below, please
1000 override this method in your schema if you would like a different file
1001 name format. For the ALTER file, the same format is used, replacing
1002 $version in the name with "$preversion-$version".
1004 If no arguments are passed, then the following default values are used:
1008 =item databases - ['MySQL', 'SQLite', 'PostgreSQL']
1010 =item version - $schema->VERSION
1012 =item directory - './'
1014 =item preversion - <none>
1018 Note that this feature is currently EXPERIMENTAL and may not work correctly
1019 across all databases, or fully handle complex relationships.
1021 WARNING: Please check all SQL files created, before applying them.

1028 $self->throw_exception("Can't create_ddl_dir without storage") unless $self->storage;
1029 $self->storage->create_ddl_dir($self, @_);
1032 =head2 ddl_filename (EXPERIMENTAL)
1036 =item Arguments: $directory, $database-type, $version, $preversion
1040 my $filename = $table->ddl_filename($type, $dir, $version, $preversion)
1042 This method is called by C<create_ddl_dir> to compose a file name out of
1043 the supplied directory, database type and version number. The default file
1044 name format is: C<$dir$schema-$version-$type.sql>.
1046 You may override this method in your schema if you wish to use a different
1052 my ($self, $type, $dir, $version, $pversion) = @_;
1054 my $filename = ref($self);
1055 $filename =~ s/::/-/g;
1056 $filename = File::Spec->catfile($dir, "$filename-$version-$type.sql");
1057 $filename =~ s/$version/$pversion-$version/ if($pversion);
1062 =head2 sqlt_deploy_hook($sqlt_schema)
1064 An optional sub which you can declare in your own Schema class that will get
1065 passed the L<SQL::Translator::Schema> object when you deploy the schema via
1066 L</create_ddl_dir> or L</deploy>.
1068 For an example of what you can do with this, see
1069 L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Cookbook/Adding Indexes And Functions To Your SQL>.
1073 Provided as the recommened way of thawing schema objects. You can call
1074 C<Storable::thaw> directly if you wish, but the thawed objects will not have a
1075 reference to any schema, so are rather useless
1080 my ($self, $obj) = @_;
1081 local $DBIx::Class::ResultSourceHandle::thaw_schema = $self;
1082 return Storable::thaw($obj);
1087 This doesn't actualy do anything more than call L<Storable/freeze>, it is just
1088 provided here for symetry.
1093 return Storable::freeze($_[1]);
1098 Recommeneded way of dcloning objects. This is needed to properly maintain
1099 references to the schema object (which itself is B<not> cloned.)
1104 my ($self, $obj) = @_;
1105 local $DBIx::Class::ResultSourceHandle::thaw_schema = $self;
1106 return Storable::dclone($obj);
