=head1 NAME
columns to be of the datetime, timestamp or date datatype.
package Event;
- __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/Core InflateColumn::DateTime/);
+ __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/InflateColumn::DateTime Core/);
__PACKAGE__->add_columns(
starts_when => { data_type => 'datetime' }
);
+NOTE: You B<must> load C<InflateColumn::DateTime> B<before> C<Core>. See
+L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Component> for details.
+
Then you can treat the specified column as a L<DateTime> object.
print "This event starts the month of ".
$event->starts_when->month_name();
+If you want to set a specific timezone and locale for that field, use:
+
+ __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
+ starts_when => { data_type => 'datetime', timezone => "America/Chicago", locale => "de_DE" }
+ );
+
+If you want to inflate no matter what data_type your column is,
+use inflate_datetime or inflate_date:
+
+ __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
+ starts_when => { data_type => 'varchar', inflate_datetime => 1 }
+ );
+
+ __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
+ starts_when => { data_type => 'varchar', inflate_date => 1 }
+ );
+
+It's also possible to explicitly skip inflation:
+
+ __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
+ starts_when => { data_type => 'datetime', inflate_datetime => 0 }
+ );
+
+NOTE: Don't rely on C<InflateColumn::DateTime> to parse date strings for you.
+The column is set directly for any non-references and C<InflateColumn::DateTime>
+is completely bypassed. Instead, use an input parser to create a DateTime
+object. For instance, if your user input comes as a 'YYYY-MM-DD' string, you can
+use C<DateTime::Format::ISO8601> thusly:
+
+ use DateTime::Format::ISO8601;
+ my $dt = DateTime::Format::ISO8601->parse_datetime('YYYY-MM-DD');
+
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module figures out the type of DateTime::Format::* class to
up datetime columns appropriately. This would not normally be
directly called by end users.
+In the case of an invalid date, L<DateTime> will throw an exception. To
+bypass these exceptions and just have the inflation return undef, use
+the C<datetime_undef_if_invalid> option in the column info:
+
+ "broken_date",
+ {
+ data_type => "datetime",
+ default_value => '0000-00-00',
+ is_nullable => 1,
+ datetime_undef_if_invalid => 1
+ }

+=head1 USAGE NOTES
+
+If you have a datetime column with an associated C<timezone>, and subsequently
+create/update this column with a DateTime object in the L<DateTime::TimeZone::Floating>
+timezone, you will get a warning (as there is a very good chance this will not have the
+result you expect). For example:
+
+ __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
+ starts_when => { data_type => 'datetime', timezone => "America/Chicago" }
+ );
+
+ my $event = $schema->resultset('EventTZ')->create({
+ starts_at => DateTime->new(year=>2007, month=>12, day=>31, ),
+ });
+
+The warning can be avoided in several ways:
+
+=over
+
+=item Fix your broken code
+
+When calling C<set_time_zone> on a Floating DateTime object, the timezone is simply
+set to the requested value, and B<no time conversion takes place>. It is always a good idea
+to be supply explicit times to the database:
+
+ my $event = $schema->resultset('EventTZ')->create({
+ starts_at => DateTime->new(year=>2007, month=>12, day=>31, time_zone => "America/Chicago" ),
+ });
+
+=item Suppress the check on per-column basis
+
+ __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
+ starts_when => { data_type => 'datetime', timezone => "America/Chicago", floating_tz_ok => 1 }
+ );
+
+=item Suppress the check globally
+
+Set the environment variable DBIC_FLOATING_TZ_OK to some true value.
+
+=back
+
+Putting extra attributes like timezone, locale or floating_tz_ok into extra => {} has been
+B<DEPRECATED> because this gets you into trouble using L<DBIx::Class::Schema::Versioned>.
+Instead put it directly into the columns definition like in the examples above. If you still
+use the old way you'll see a warning - please fix your code then!
