NAME

DBIx::DataModel::ConnectedSource - metasource and schema paired together

DESCRIPTION

A connected source is a pair of a $meta_source and and a $schema. The meta_source holds information about the data structure, and the schema holds a connection to the database.

Connected sources are used mainly in multi-schema mode, for implementing calls such as

  $schema->table($table_name)->select(...);
  $schema->join(qw/Table path1 path2 .../)->select(...);

METHODS

Methods are documented in "CONNECTED SOURCES" in DBIx::DataModel::Doc::Reference Most methods are just delegated calls to $meta_source->class, passing along a reference to $schema through a fake object

  my $connected_source 
    = DBIx::DataModel::ConnectedSource->new($meta_source, $schema);
