# ORDER BY

These are the two builtin "special operators"; but the
list can be expanded : see section L</"SPECIAL OPERATORS"> below.
+=head2 Boolean operators
+
+If you wish to test against boolean columns or functions within your
+database you can use the C<-bool> and C<-not_bool> operators. For
+example to test the column C<is_user> being true and the column
+<is_enabled> being false you would use:-
+
+ my %where = (
+ -bool => 'is_user',
+ -not_bool => 'is_enabled',
+ );
+
+Would give you:
+
+ WHERE is_user AND NOT is_enabledmv
+
+
+
=head2 Nested conditions, -and/-or prefixes
So far, we've seen how multiple conditions are joined with a top-level
column name,) a hash of C<< { -desc => 'col' } >> or C<< { -asc => 'col' } >>,
or an array of either of the two previous forms. Examples:
- Given | Will Generate
- ---------------------------------------------------------
- |
- \'colA DESC' | ORDER BY colA DESC
- |
- 'colA' | ORDER BY colA
- |
- [qw/colA colB/] | ORDER BY colA, colB
- |
- {-asc => 'colA'} | ORDER BY colA ASC
- |
- {-desc => 'colB'} | ORDER BY colB DESC
- |
- [ | ORDER BY colA ASC, colB DESC
- {-asc => 'colA'}, |
- {-desc => 'colB'} |
- ] |
- |
- ['colA', {-asc => 'colB'}] | ORDER BY colA, colB ASC
- |
- { -asc => [qw/colA colB] } | ORDER BY colA ASC, colB ASC
- |
- { |
- -asc => [qw/colA colB/], | ORDER BY colA ASC, colB ASC,
- -desc => [qw/colC colD/],| colC DESC, colD DESC
- } |

WHERE MATCH(field) AGAINST (?, ?)
Special operators IN and BETWEEN are fairly standard and therefore
-are builtin within C<SQL::Abstract>. For other operators,
-like the MATCH .. AGAINST example above which is
-specific to MySQL, you can write your own operator handlers :
-supply a C<special_ops> argument to the C<new> method.
-That argument takes an arrayref of operator definitions;
-each operator definition is a hashref with two entries
+are builtin within C<SQL::Abstract> (as the overridable methods
+C<_where_field_IN> and C<_where_field_BETWEEN>). For other operators,
+like the MATCH .. AGAINST example above which is specific to MySQL,
+you can write your own operator handlers - supply a C<special_ops>
+argument to the C<new> method. That argument takes an arrayref of
+operator definitions; each operator definition is a hashref with two
+entries:
=over
=item handler
-coderef that will be called when meeting that operator
-in the input tree. The coderef will be called with
-arguments C<< ($self, $field, $op, $arg) >>, and
-should return a C<< ($sql, @bind) >> structure.
+Either a coderef or a plain scalar method name. In both cases
+the expected return is C<< ($sql, @bind) >>.
+
+When supplied with a method name, it is simply called on the
+L<SQL::Abstract/> object as:
+
+ $self->$method_name ($field, $op, $arg)
+
+ Where:
+
+ $op is the part that matched the handler regex
+ $field is the LHS of the operator
+ $arg is the RHS
+
+When supplied with a coderef, it is called as:
+
+ $coderef->($self, $field, $op, $arg)
