The resultset constructor. Takes a source object (usually a

-below). Does not perform any queries -- these are executed as needed by the
-other methods.

=head1 ATTRIBUTES
+XXX: FIXME: Attributes docs need clearing up
+
The resultset takes various attributes that modify its behavior. Here's an
overview of them:
=head2 order_by
-Which column(s) to order the results by. This is currently passed through
-directly to SQL, so you can give e.g. C<foo DESC> for a descending order.
+Which column(s) to order the results by. This is currently passed
+through directly to SQL, so you can give e.g. C<year DESC> for a
+descending order on the column `year'.
=head2 columns
-=head3 Arguments: (arrayref)
+=over 4
+
+=item Arguments: (\@columns)
+
+=back
Shortcut to request a particular set of columns to be retrieved. Adds
C<me.> onto the start of any column without a C<.> in it and sets C<select>
=head2 include_columns
-=head3 Arguments: (arrayref)
+=over 4
+
+=item Arguments: (\@columns)
+
+=back
Shortcut to include additional columns in the returned results - for example
- { include_columns => ['foo.name'], join => ['foo'] }
+ $schema->resultset('CD')->search(undef, {
+ include_columns => ['artist.name'],
+ join => ['artist']
+ });
-would add a 'name' column to the information passed to object inflation
+would return all CDs and include a 'name' column to the information
+passed to object inflation
=head2 select
-=head3 Arguments: (arrayref)
+=over 4
+
+=item Arguments: (\@columns)
+
+=back
Indicates which columns should be selected from the storage. You can use
column names, or in the case of RDBMS back ends, function or stored procedure
names:
- $rs = $schema->resultset('Foo')->search(
- undef,
- {
- select => [
- 'column_name',
- { count => 'column_to_count' },
- { sum => 'column_to_sum' }
- ]
- }
- );
+ $rs = $schema->resultset('Employee')->search(undef, {
+ select => [
+ 'name',
+ { count => 'employeeid' },
+ { sum => 'salary' }
+ ]
+ });
When you use function/stored procedure names and do not supply an C<as>
attribute, the column names returned are storage-dependent. E.g. MySQL would
-return a column named C<count(column_to_count)> in the above example.
+return a column named C<count(employeeid)> in the above example.
=head2 as
-=head3 Arguments: (arrayref)
+=over 4
+
+=item Arguments: (\@names)
+
+=back
Indicates column names for object inflation. This is used in conjunction with
C<select>, usually when C<select> contains one or more function or stored
procedure names:
- $rs = $schema->resultset('Foo')->search(
- undef,
- {
- select => [
- 'column1',
- { count => 'column2' }
- ],
- as => [qw/ column1 column2_count /]
- }
- );
+ $rs = $schema->resultset('Employee')->search(undef, {
+ select => [
+ 'name',
+ { count => 'employeeid' }
+ ],
+ as => ['name', 'employee_count'],
+ });
- my $foo = $rs->first(); # get the first Foo
+ my $employee = $rs->first(); # get the first Employee
If the object against which the search is performed already has an accessor
matching a column name specified in C<as>, the value can be retrieved using
the accessor as normal:
- my $column1 = $foo->column1();
+ my $name = $employee->name();
If on the other hand an accessor does not exist in the object, you need to
use C<get_column> instead:
- my $column2_count = $foo->get_column('column2_count');
+ my $employee_count = $employee->get_column('employee_count');
You can create your own accessors if required - see
L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Cookbook> for details.
If the same join is supplied twice, it will be aliased to <rel>_2 (and
similarly for a third time). For e.g.
- my $rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search(
- { 'cds.title' => 'Foo',
- 'cds_2.title' => 'Bar' },
- { join => [ qw/cds cds/ ] });
+ my $rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search({
+ 'cds.title' => 'Down to Earth',
+ 'cds_2.title' => 'Popular',
+ }, {
+ join => [ qw/cds cds/ ],
+ });
-will return a set of all artists that have both a cd with title Foo and a cd
-with title Bar.
+will return a set of all artists that have both a cd with title 'Down
+to Earth' and a cd with title 'Popular'.
If you want to fetch related objects from other tables as well, see C<prefetch>
below.
=head2 prefetch
-=head3 Arguments: arrayref/hashref

query (when they are accessed afterwards they will have already been
=head2 from

The C<from> attribute gives you manual control over the C<FROM> clause of SQL
statements generated by L<DBIx::Class>, allowing you to express custom C<JOIN>
=head2 page

+
+=item Arguments: ($page)

For a paged resultset, specifies which page to retrieve. Leave unset
for an unpaged resultset.

+
+For a paged resultset, specifies how many rows are in each page:

=head2 group_by
-=head3 Arguments: (arrayref)
+=over 4
+
+=item Arguments: (\@columns)
+
+=back
A arrayref of columns to group by. Can include columns of joined tables.
Set to 1 to group by all columns.
+=head2 cache
+
+Set to 1 to cache search results. This prevents extra SQL queries if you
+revisit rows in your ResultSet:
+
+ my $resultset = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search( undef, { cache => 1 } );
+
+ while( my $artist = $resultset->next ) {
+ ... do stuff ...
+ }
+
+ $rs->first; # without cache, this would issue a query
+
+By default, searches are not cached.
+
