NAME

DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler::DeployMethod::SQL::Translator::ScriptHelpers

SYNOPSIS

 use DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler::DeployMethod::SQL::Translator::ScriptHelpers
   'schema_from_schema_loader';

   schema_from_schema_loader({ naming => 'v4' }, sub {
      my ($schema, $version_set) = @_;

      ...
   });

DESCRIPTION

This package is a set of coderef transforms for common use-cases in migrations. The subroutines are simply helpers for creating coderefs that will work for "PERL SCRIPTS" in DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler::DeployMethod::SQL::Translator, yet have some argument other than the current schema that you as a user might prefer.

EXPORTED SUBROUTINES

dbh($coderef)

 dbh(sub {
   my ($dbh, $version_set) = @_;

   ...
 });

For those times when you almost exclusively need access to "the bare metal". Simply gives you the correct database handle and the expected version set.

schema_from_schema_loader($sl_opts, $coderef)

 schema_from_schema_loader({ naming => 'v4' }, sub {
   my ($schema, $version_set) = @_;

   ...
 });

Any time you write a perl migration script that uses a DBIx::Class::Schema you should probably use this. Otherwise you'll run into problems if you remove a column from your schema yet still populate to it in an older population script.

Note that $sl_opts requires that you specify something for the naming option.
