NAME
    DBIx::Class::TopoSort - The addition of topological sorting to
    DBIx::Class

SYNOPSIS
      my $schema = Your::App::Schema->connect(...);
      my @toposorted_sourcenames = $schema->toposort();

DESCRIPTION
    This adds a method to DBIx::Class::Schema which returns the full list of
    sources (similar to "sources" in DBIx::Class::Schema) in
    topological-sorted order.

  TOPOLOGICAL SORT
    A topological sort of the tables returns the list of tables such that
    any table with a foreign key relationship appears after any table it has
    a foreign key relationship to.

METHODS
    This class is not instantiable nor does it provide any methods of its
    own. All methods are added to the DBIx::Class::Schema class and are
    callable on objects instantiated of that class.

  toposort
    This is sugar for:

      $self->toposort_graph(@_)->toposort();

    Calling this method multiple times may return the list of source names
    in different order. Each order will conform to the gurantee described in
    the section on TOPOLOGICAL SORT.

    This method will throw an error if there are any cycles in your tables.
    You will need to specify the skip parameter (described below) to break
    those cycles.

  toposort_graph
    This returns a Graph object with a vertex for every source and an edge
    for every foreign key relationship.

    It takes the following parameters.

    skip
        This describes the list of relationships that should be ignored by
        the toposort algorithm. This is generally used if you have cycles in
        your schema (though it could possibly be useful in other ways, I
        guess). The value is a hashref. The keys of this hashref are source
        names and the values are arrays of relationship names.

          skip => {
              Artist => [ qw/ first_album / ],
          }
