+DBIx::Class::Tree::AdjacencyList - Manage a tree of data using the common adjacency list model.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
package My::Employee;
__PACKAGE__->parent_column('parent_id');
+Optionally, automatically maintane a consistent tree structure.
+
+ __PACKAGE__->repair_tree( 1 );
+
Thats it, now you can modify and analyze the tree.

other rows. Although, there is no limitation in this module that would
stop you from having multiple root nodes.

__PACKAGE__->parent_column('parent_id');
my $primary_col = ($class->primary_columns())[0];
$class->belongs_to( '_parent' => $class => { "foreign.$primary_col" => "self.$parent_col" } );
$class->has_many( 'children' => $class => { "foreign.$parent_col" => "self.$primary_col" } );
- $class->has_many( 'parents' => $class => { "foreign.$primary_col" => "self.$parent_col" }, {cascade_delete=>0} );

+=head2 repair_tree
+
+ __PACKAGE__->repair_tree( 1 );
+
+When set a true value this flag causes all changes to a node's parent to
+trigger an integrity check on the tree. If, when changing a node's parent
+to one of it's descendents then all its children will first be moved to have
+the same current parent, and then the node's parent is changed.
+
+So, for example, if the tree is like this:
+
+ A
+ B
+ C
+ D
+ E
+ F
+
+And you execute:
+
+ $b->parent( $d );
+
+Since D is a descendant of B then all of B's siblings get their parent
+changed to A. Then B's parent is set to D.
+ A
+ C
+ D
+ B
+ E
+ F
