DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI - DBI storage handler
my $schema = MySchema->connect('dbi:SQLite:my.db');
$schema->storage->debug(1);
my @stuff = $schema->storage->dbh_do(
sub {
my ($storage, $dbh, @args) = @_;
$dbh->do("DROP TABLE authors");
},
@column_list
);
$schema->resultset('Book')->search({
written_on => $schema->storage->datetime_parser->format_datetime(DateTime->now)
});
This class represents the connection to an RDBMS via DBI. See DBIx::Class::Storage for general information. This pod only documents DBI-specific methods and behaviors.
This method is normally called by "connection" in DBIx::Class::Schema, which encapsulates its argument list in an arrayref before passing them here.
The argument list may contain:
$connect_info_args = [ $dsn, $user, $password, \%dbi_attributes?, \%extra_attributes? ];
$connect_info_args = [ sub { DBI->connect (...) }, \%extra_attributes? ];
$connect_info_args = [{
dsn => $dsn,
user => $user,
password => $pass,
%dbi_attributes,
%extra_attributes,
}];
$connect_info_args = [{
dbh_maker => sub { DBI->connect (...) },
%dbi_attributes,
%extra_attributes,
}];
This is particularly useful for Catalyst based applications, allowing the following config (Config::General style):
<Model::DB>
schema_class App::DB
<connect_info>
dsn dbi:mysql:database=test
user testuser
password TestPass
AutoCommit 1
</connect_info>
</Model::DB>
The "dsn"/"user"/"password" combination can be substituted by the "dbh_maker" key whose value is a coderef that returns a connected DBI database handle
Please note that the DBI docs recommend that you always explicitly set "AutoCommit" to either 0 or 1. DBIx::Class further recommends that it be set to 1, and that you perform transactions via our "txn_do" in DBIx::Class::Schema method. DBIx::Class will set it to 1 if you do not do explicitly set it to zero. This is the default for most DBDs. See "DBIx::Class and AutoCommit" for details.
DBIx::Class specific connection attributes
In addition to the standard DBI connection attributes, DBIx::Class recognizes the following connection options. These options can be mixed in with your other DBI connection attributes, or placed in a separate hashref ("\%extra_attributes") as shown above.
Every time "connect_info" is invoked, any previous settings for these options will be cleared before setting the new ones, regardless of whether any options are specified in the new "connect_info".
Note, this only runs if you explicitly call "disconnect" on the storage object.
on_connect_do => 'select 1'
is equivalent to:
on_connect_call => [ [ do_sql => 'select 1' ] ]
Its values may contain:
Some predefined storage methods you may use:
It can take:
Only necessary for some databases, see your specific storage driver for implementation details.
Calls the "disconnect_call_METHOD" methods as opposed to the "connect_call_METHOD" methods called by "on_connect_call".
Note, this only runs if you explicitly call "disconnect" on the storage object.
"quote_char" expects either a single character, in which case is it is placed on either side of the table/column name, or an arrayref of length 2 in which case the table/column name is placed between the elements.
For example under MySQL you should use "quote_char => '`'", and for SQL Server you should use "quote_char => [qw/[ ]/]".
If you set this option to a true value, Storage will not do its usual modifications to the database handle's attributes, and instead relies on the settings in your connect_info DBI options (or the values you set in your connection coderef, in the case that you are connecting via coderef).
Note that your custom settings can cause Storage to malfunction, especially if you set a "HandleError" handler that suppresses exceptions and/or disable "RaiseError".
Some real-life examples of arguments to "connect_info" and "connect" in DBIx::Class::Schema
# Simple SQLite connection
->connect_info([ 'dbi:SQLite:./foo.db' ]);
# Connect via subref
->connect_info([ sub { DBI->connect(...) } ]);
# Connect via subref in hashref
->connect_info([{
dbh_maker => sub { DBI->connect(...) },
on_connect_do => 'alter session ...',
}]);
# A bit more complicated
->connect_info(
[
'dbi:Pg:dbname=foo',
'postgres',
'my_pg_password',
{ AutoCommit => 1 },
{ quote_char => q{"} },
]
);
# Equivalent to the previous example
->connect_info(
[
'dbi:Pg:dbname=foo',
'postgres',
'my_pg_password',
{ AutoCommit => 1, quote_char => q{"}, name_sep => q{.} },
]
);
# Same, but with hashref as argument
# See parse_connect_info for explanation
->connect_info(
[{
dsn => 'dbi:Pg:dbname=foo',
user => 'postgres',
password => 'my_pg_password',
AutoCommit => 1,
quote_char => q{"},
name_sep => q{.},
}]
);
# Subref + DBIx::Class-specific connection options
->connect_info(
[
sub { DBI->connect(...) },
{
quote_char => q{`},
name_sep => q{@},
on_connect_do => ['SET search_path TO myschema,otherschema,public'],
disable_sth_caching => 1,
},
]
);
This method is deprecated in favour of setting via "connect_info".

Arguments: ($subref | $method_name), @extra_coderef_args?
Execute the given $subref or $method_name using the new exception-based connection management.
The first two arguments will be the storage object that "dbh_do" was called on and a database handle to use. Any additional arguments will be passed verbatim to the called subref as arguments 2 and onwards.
Using this (instead of $self->_dbh or $self->dbh) ensures correct exception handling and reconnection (or failover in future subclasses).
Your subref should have no side-effects outside of the database, as there is the potential for your subref to be partially double-executed if the database connection was stale/dysfunctional.
Example:
my @stuff = $schema->storage->dbh_do(
sub {
my ($storage, $dbh, @cols) = @_;
my $cols = join(q{, }, @cols);
$dbh->selectrow_array("SELECT $cols FROM foo");
},
@column_list
);
Our "disconnect" method also performs a rollback first if the database is not in "AutoCommit" mode.
Storage specific method to run the code ref with FK checks deferred or in MySQL's case disabled entirely.
Verifies that the current database handle is active and ready to execute an SQL statement (e.g. the connection did not get stale, server is still answering, etc.) This method is used internally by "dbh".
Returns a $dbh - a data base handle of class DBI. The returned handle is guaranteed to be healthy by implicitly calling "connected", and if necessary performing a reconnection before returning. Keep in mind that this is very expensive on some database engines. Consider using "dbh_do" instead.
A no-op stub method, provided so that one can always safely supply the connection option
on_connect_call => 'datetime_setup'
This way one does not need to know in advance whether the underlying storage requires any sort of hand-holding when dealing with calendar data.
Handle a SQL select statement.
This is an accessor for the default SQL limit dialect used by a particular storage driver. Can be overridden by supplying an explicit "limit_dialect" to "connect" in DBIx::Class::Schema. For a list of available limit dialects see DBIx::Class::SQLMaker::LimitDialects.
Return the row id of the last insert.
This API is EXPERIMENTAL, will almost definitely change in the future, and currently only used by ::AutoCast and ::Sybase::ASE.
The default implementation returns "undef", implement in your Storage driver if you need this functionality.
Should map types from other databases to the native RDBMS type, for example "VARCHAR2" to "VARCHAR".
Types with modifiers should map to the underlying data type. For example, "INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT" should become "INTEGER".
Composite types should map to the container type, for example "ENUM(foo,bar,baz)" becomes "ENUM".
Returns the database driver name.
Given a datatype from column info, returns a database specific bind attribute for "$dbh->bind_param($val,$attribute)" or nothing if we will let the database planner just handle it.
This method is always called after the driver has been determined and a DBI connection has been established. Therefore you can refer to "DBI::$constant" and/or "DBD::$driver::$constant" directly, without worrying about loading the correct modules.
Given a datatype from column_info, returns a boolean value indicating if the current RDBMS considers it a numeric value. This controls how "set_column" in DBIx::Class::Row decides whether to mark the column as dirty - when the datatype is deemed numeric a "!=" comparison will be performed instead of the usual "eq".
Creates a SQL file based on the Schema, for each of the specified database engines in "\@databases" in the given directory. (note: specify SQL::Translator names, not DBI driver names).
Given a previous version number, this will also create a file containing the ALTER TABLE statements to transform the previous schema into the current one. Note that these statements may contain "DROP TABLE" or "DROP COLUMN" statements that can potentially destroy data.
The file names are created using the "ddl_filename" method below, please override this method in your schema if you would like a different file name format. For the ALTER file, the same format is used, replacing $version in the name with "$preversion-$version".
See "METHODS" in SQL::Translator for a list of values for "\%sqlt_args". The most common value for this would be "{ add_drop_table => 1 }" to have the SQL produced include a "DROP TABLE" statement for each table created. For quoting purposes supply "quote_identifiers".
If no arguments are passed, then the following default values are assumed:
By default, "\%sqlt_args" will have
{ add_drop_table => 1, ignore_constraint_names => 1, ignore_index_names => 1 }
merged with the hash passed in. To disable any of those features, pass in a hashref like the following
{ ignore_constraint_names => 0, # ... other options }
WARNING: You are strongly advised to check all SQL files created, before applying them.
Returns the statements used by "deploy" in DBIx::Class::Storage and "deploy" in DBIx::Class::Schema.
The SQL::Translator (not DBI) database driver name can be explicitly provided in $type, otherwise the result of "sqlt_type" is used as default.
$directory is used to return statements from files in a previously created "create_ddl_dir" directory and is optional. The filenames are constructed from "ddl_filename" in DBIx::Class::Schema, the schema name and the $version.
If no $directory is specified then the statements are constructed on the fly using SQL::Translator and $version is ignored.
See "METHODS" in SQL::Translator for a list of values for $sqlt_args.
Returns the datetime parser class
Defines the datetime parser class - currently defaults to DateTime::Format::MySQL
See "datetime_parser"
A boolean that reports if a particular DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI is set to replicate from a master database. Default is undef, which is the result returned by databases that don't support replication.
Returns a number that represents a certain amount of lag behind a master db when a given storage is replicating. The number is database dependent, but starts at zero and increases with the amount of lag. Default in undef
DBIx::Class uses DBIx::Class::Relationship names as table aliases in queries.
This hook is to allow specific DBIx::Class::Storage drivers to change the way these aliases are named.
The default behavior is ""$relname_$join_count" if $join_count > 1", otherwise "$relname".
DBIx::Class can do some wonderful magic with handling exceptions, disconnections, and transactions when you use "AutoCommit => 1" (the default) combined with txn_do for transaction support.
If you set "AutoCommit => 0" in your connect info, then you are always in an assumed transaction between commits, and you're telling us you'd like to manage that manually. A lot of the magic protections offered by this module will go away. We can't protect you from exceptions due to database disconnects because we don't know anything about how to restart your transactions. You're on your own for handling all sorts of exceptional cases if you choose the "AutoCommit => 0" path, just as you would be with raw DBI.
