NAME

DBIx::DBO2 - Objects mapping to SQL relational structures

SYNOPSIS

  package MyRecord;
  use DBIx::DBO2::Record '-isasubclass';
  
  my $sql_engine = DBIx::SQLEngine->new( $dsn, $user, $pass );
  MyRecord->table( $sql_engine->table('myrecords') );
  
  package main;
  my $results = MyRecord->fetch_all;
  foreach my $record ( $results->records ) {
    if ( $record->{age} > 20 ) {
      $record->{status} = 'adult';
      $record->save_row;
    }
  }

DESCRIPTION

DBIx::DBO2 is an object-relational mapping framework that facilitates the development of Perl classes whose objects are stored in a SQL database table.

The following classes are included:

  Schema
  Record        RecordSet
  Fields

Each Schema object represents a collection of Record classes.

Each Record object represents a single row in a SQL table.

The Fields class generates accessor methods for Record classes.

The RecordSet class provides methods on blessed arrays of Records.
