=head1 NAME
-DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Replicated - ALPHA Replicated database support
+DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Replicated - BETA Replicated database support
=head1 SYNOPSIS
storage type, add some replicated (readonly) databases, and perform reporting
tasks.
- ## Change storage_type in your schema class
- $schema->storage_type( ['::DBI::Replicated', {balancer=>'::Random'}] );
-
- ## Add some slaves. Basically this is an array of arrayrefs, where each
- ## arrayref is database connect information
-
- $schema->storage->connect_replicants(
- [$dsn1, $user, $pass, \%opts],
- [$dsn1, $user, $pass, \%opts],
- [$dsn1, $user, $pass, \%opts],
- );

+ [$dsn1, $user, $pass, \%opts],
+ [$dsn2, $user, $pass, \%opts],
+ [$dsn3, $user, $pass, \%opts],
+ );
+
+ ## Now, just use the $schema as normal
+ $schema->resultset('Source')->search({name=>'etc'});
+
+ ## You can force a given query to use a particular storage using the search
+ ### attribute 'force_pool'. For example:
+
+ my $RS = $schema->resultset('Source')->search(undef, {force_pool=>'master'});
+
+ ## Now $RS will force everything (both reads and writes) to use whatever was
+ ## setup as the master storage. 'master' is hardcoded to always point to the
+ ## Master, but you can also use any Replicant name. Please see:
+ ## L<DBIx::Class::Storage::Replicated::Pool> and the replicants attribute for
+ ## More. Also see transactions and L</execute_reliably> for alternative ways
+ ## to force read traffic to the master.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
-Warning: This class is marked ALPHA. We are using this in development and have
-some basic test coverage but the code hasn't yet been stressed by a variety
-of databases. Individual DB's may have quirks we are not aware of. Please
-use this in development and pass along your experiences/bug fixes.
+Warning: This class is marked BETA. This has been running a production
+website using MySQL native replication as its backend and we have some decent
+test coverage but the code hasn't yet been stressed by a variety of databases.
+Individual DB's may have quirks we are not aware of. Please use this in first
+development and pass along your experiences/bug fixes.
This class implements replicated data store for DBI. Currently you can define
one master and numerous slave database connections. All write-type queries
The consistancy betweeen master and replicants is database specific. The Pool
gives you a method to validate it's replicants, removing and replacing them
-when they fail/pass predefined criteria. It is recommened that your application
-define two schemas, one using the replicated storage and another that just
-connects to the master.
+when they fail/pass predefined criteria. Please make careful use of the ways
+to force a query to run against Master when needed.
+
+=head1 REQUIREMENTS
+
+Replicated Storage has additional requirements not currently part of L<DBIx::Class>
+
+ Moose => 0.77
+ MooseX::AttributeHelpers => 0.12
+ MooseX::Types => 0.10
+ namespace::clean => 0.11
+ Hash::Merge => 0.11
+
+You will need to install these modules manually via CPAN or make them part of the
+Makefile for your distribution.

+
+Due to the fact that replicants can lag behind a master, you must take care to
+make sure you use one of the methods to force read queries to a master should
+you need realtime data integrity. For example, if you insert a row, and then
+immediately re-read it from the database (say, by doing $row->discard_changes)
+or you insert a row and then immediately build a query that expects that row
+to be an item, you should force the master to handle reads. Otherwise, due to
+the lag, there is no certainty your data will be in the expected state.
+
+For data integrity, all transactions automatically use the master storage for
+all read and write queries. Using a transaction is the preferred and recommended
+method to force the master to handle all read queries.
+
+Otherwise, you can force a single query to use the master with the 'force_pool'
+attribute:
+
+ my $row = $resultset->search(undef, {force_pool=>'master'})->find($pk);
+
+This attribute will safely be ignore by non replicated storages, so you can use
+the same code for both types of systems.
+
+Lastly, you can use the L</execute_reliably> method, which works very much like
+a transaction.
+
+For debugging, you can turn replication on/off with the methods L</set_reliable_storage>
+and L</set_balanced_storage>, however this operates at a global level and is not
+suitable if you have a shared Schema object being used by multiple processes,
+such as on a web application server. You can get around this limitation by
+using the Schema clone method.
+
+ my $new_schema = $schema->clone;
+ $new_schema->set_reliable_storage;
+
+ ## $new_schema will use only the Master storage for all reads/writes while
+ ## the $schema object will use replicated storage.
