The database consists of the following:
table 'artist' with columns: artistid, name
- table 'cd' with columns: cdid, artist, title
+ table 'cd' with columns: cdid, artist, title, year
table 'track' with columns: trackid, cd, title
title TEXT NOT NULL
);
-and create the sqlite database file:
+and create the SQLite database file:
sqlite3 example.db < example.sql
Now create some more directories:
- mkdir MyDatabase
- mkdir MyDatabase/Main
- mkdir MyDatabase/Main/Result
- mkdir MyDatabase/Main/ResultSet
+ mkdir MyApp
+ mkdir MyApp/Schema
+ mkdir MyApp/Schema/Result
+ mkdir MyApp/Schema/ResultSet
Then, create the following DBIx::Class::Schema classes:
-MyDatabase/Main.pm:
+MyApp/Schema.pm:
- package MyDatabase::Main;
+ package MyApp::Schema;
use base qw/DBIx::Class::Schema/;
__PACKAGE__->load_namespaces;
1;

- package MyDatabase::Main::Result::Artist;

use base qw/DBIx::Class::Core/;
__PACKAGE__->table('artist');
__PACKAGE__->add_columns(qw/ artistid name /);
__PACKAGE__->set_primary_key('artistid');
- __PACKAGE__->has_many('cds' => 'MyDatabase::Main::Result::Cd');
+ __PACKAGE__->has_many('cds' => 'MyApp::Schema::Result::Cd');

=head1 Notes
-A reference implentation of the database and scripts in this example
+A reference implementation of the database and scripts in this example
are available in the main distribution for DBIx::Class under the
-directory F<t/examples/Schema>.
+directory F<examples/Schema>.
With these scripts we're relying on @INC looking in the current
-working directory. You may want to add the MyDatabase namespaces to
+working directory. You may want to add the MyApp namespaces to
@INC in a different way when it comes to deployment.
The F<testdb.pl> script is an excellent start for testing your database
model.
This example uses L<DBIx::Class::Schema/load_namespaces> to load in the
-appropriate L<Row|DBIx::Class::Row> classes from the MyDatabase::Main::Result namespace,
-and any required resultset classes from the MyDatabase::Main::ResultSet
-namespace (although we created the directory in the directions above we
-did not add, or need to add, any resultset classes).
+appropriate L<Result|DBIx::Class::Manual::ResultClass> classes from the

+L<ResultSet|DBIx::Class::ResultSet> classes from the
+C<MyApp::Schema::ResultSet> namespace (although we created the directory
+in the directions above we did not add, or need to add, any resultset
