date_entered => { '>' => \["to_date(?, 'MM/DD/YYYY')", "11/26/2008"] },
Which would generate:
- $stmt = "WHERE date_entered > "to_date(?, 'MM/DD/YYYY') AND date_expires < now()";
+ $stmt = "WHERE date_entered > to_date(?, 'MM/DD/YYYY') AND date_expires < now()";
@bind = ('11/26/2008');
Because, in Perl you I<can't> do this:
- priority => { '!=', 2, '!=', 1 }
+ priority => { '!=' => 2, '!=' => 1 }
As the second C<!=> key will obliterate the first. The solution
is to use the special C<-modifier> form inside an arrayref:
That would yield:
- WHERE ( user = ? AND (
- ( workhrs > ? AND geo = ? )
- OR ( workhrs < ? OR geo = ? )
- ) )
+ $stmt = "WHERE ( user = ?
+ AND ( ( workhrs > ? AND geo = ? )
+ OR ( workhrs < ? OR geo = ? ) ) )";
+ @bind = ('nwiger', '20', 'ASIA', '50', 'EURO');
=head3 Algebraic inconsistency, for historical reasons
historical reasons. So be careful : the two examples below would
seem algebraically equivalent, but they are not
- {col => [-and => {-like => 'foo%'}, {-like => '%bar'}]}
+ { col => [ -and =>
+ { -like => 'foo%' },
+ { -like => '%bar' },
+ ] }
# yields : WHERE ( ( col LIKE ? AND col LIKE ? ) )
- [-and => {col => {-like => 'foo%'}, {col => {-like => '%bar'}}]]
+ [ -and =>
+ { col => { -like => 'foo%' } },
+ { col => { -like => '%bar' } },
+ ]
# yields : WHERE ( ( col LIKE ? OR col LIKE ? ) )
@bind = ('10');
Note that you must pass the bind values in the same format as they are returned
-by L</where>. That means that if you set L</bindtype> to C<columns>, you must
-provide the bind values in the C<< [ column_meta => value ] >> format, where
-C<column_meta> is an opaque scalar value; most commonly the column name, but
-you can use any scalar value (including references and blessed references),
-L<SQL::Abstract> will simply pass it through intact. So if C<bindtype> is set
-to C<columns> the above example will look like:
+by L<where|/where(\%where, $order)>. This means that if you set L</bindtype>
+to C<columns>, you must provide the bind values in the
+C<< [ column_meta => value ] >> format, where C<column_meta> is an opaque
+scalar value; most commonly the column name, but you can use any scalar value
+(including references and blessed references), L<SQL::Abstract> will simply
+pass it through intact. So if C<bindtype> is set to C<columns> the above
+example will look like:
my %where = (
date_column => \[ "= date '2008-09-30' - ?::integer", [ {} => 10 ] ]
=head1 ORDER BY CLAUSES
Some functions take an order by clause. This can either be a scalar (just a
-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
- |
- ['colA', {-asc => 'colB'}] | ORDER BY colA, colB ASC
- |
- { -asc => [qw/colA colB/] } | ORDER BY colA ASC, colB ASC
- |
- [ |
- { -asc => 'colA' }, | ORDER BY colA ASC, colB DESC,
- { -desc => [qw/colB/], | colC ASC, colD ASC
- { -asc => [qw/colC colD/],|
