NAME

SQL::Exec - Simple thread and fork safe database access with functionnal and OO interface

SYNOPSIS

  use SQL::Exec ':all';
  
  connect('dbi:SQLite:dbname=db_file');
  
  execute(SQL);
  
  my $val = query_one_value(SQL);
  
  my @line = query_one_line(SQL);
  
  my @table = query_all_line(SQL);

Main functionnalities

SQL::Exec is (another) interface to the DBI which strive for simplicity. Its main functionalities are:

DBMS independent. The module offers specific support for some DB server but can work with any DBD driver;
Extremely simple, a query is always only one function or method call;
Everything is as efficient: you choose the function to call based only on the data that you want to get back, not on some supposed performance benefit;
Supports both OO and functional paradigm with the same interface and functionalities;
Hides away all DBIism, you do not need to set any options, they are handled by the library with nice defaults;
Safe: SQL::Exec verify that what happens is what you meant;
Not an ORM, nor a query generator: you are controling your SQL;
Easy to extends to offer functionalities specific to one DB server;
Handles transparently network failure, fork, thread, etc;
Safely handle multi statement query and automatic transaction;
Handles prepared statements and bound parameters.

All this means that SQL::Exec is extremely beginners friendly, it can be used with no advanced knowledge of Perl and code using it can be easily read by people with no knowledge of Perl at all, which is interesting in a mixed environment.

Also, the fact that SQL::Exec does not try to write SQL for the programmer (this is a feature, not a bug), ease the migration to other tools or languages if a big part of the application logic is written in SQL.

Thus SQL::Exec is optimal for fast prototyping, for small applications which do not need a full fledged ORM, for migrating SQL code from/to an other environment, etc. It is usable (thanks to DBIx::Connector) in a CGI scripts, in a mod_perl program or in any web framework as the database access layer.

DESCRIPTION

Support of specific DB

The SQL::Exec library is mostly database agnostic. However there is some support (limited at the moment) for specific database which will extends the functionnalities of the library for those database.

If there is a sub-classe of SQL::Exec for your prefered RDBMS you should use it (for both the OO and the functionnal interface of the library) rather than using directly SQL::Exec. These sub-classes will provide tuned functions and method for your RDBMS, additionnal functionnalities, will set specific database parameters correctly and will assist you to connect to your desired database.

You will find in "Sub-classes" a list of the supported RDBMS and a link to the documentation of their specific modules. If your prefered database is not listed there, you can still use SQL::Exec directly and get most of its benefits.

Do not hesitate to ask for (or propose) a module for your database of choice.

Exported symbols

Each function of this library (that is everything described below except new and new_no_connect which are only package method) may be exported on request.

There is also a ':all' tag to get everything at once. Just do :

  use SQL::Exec ':all';

at the beginning of your file to get all the power of SQL::Exec with an overhead as small as possible.

CONSTRUCTORS/DESTRUCTORS

If you want to use this library in an object oriented way (or if you want to use multiple database connection at once) you will need to create SQL::Exec object using the constructors described here. If you want to use this library in a purely functionnal way then you will want to take a look at the "connect" function described below which will allow you to connect the library without using a single object.

new

  my $h = SQL::Exec->new($dsn, $user, $password, %opts);

Create a new SQL::Exec object and connect-it to the database defined by the $dsn argument, with the supplied $user and $password if necessary.

The syntax of the $dsn argument is described in the manual of your DBD driver. However, you will probably want to use one of the existing sub-classes of this module to assist you in connecting to some specific database.

The %opts argument is optionnal and may be given as a hash or as a hash reference. If the argument is given it set accordingly the option of the object being created. See the "set_options" method for a description of the available options.

If your DB has a specific support in a sub-classe you must use its specific constructor to get the additionnal benefits it will offer.

new_no_connect

  my $h = SQL::Exec->new_no_connect(%opts);

This constructor creates a SQL::Exec object without connecting it to any database. You will need to call the "connect" option on the handle to connect it to a database.

The %opts argument is optionnal and is the same as for the new constructor.

destructor

Whenever you have finished working with a database connection you may close it (see the "disconnect" function) or you may just let go of the database handle. There is a DESTROY method in this package which will take care of closing the database connection correctly whenever your handle is garbage collected.

GETTER/SETTER AND OPTIONS

The functions and method described below are related to knowing and manipulating the state of a database connection and of its options. The main function to set the options of a database connection is the set_options functions. However, you can pass a hash reference as the last argument to any function of this library with the same syntax as for the set_options function and the options that it describes will be in effect for the duration of the function or method call.

Any invalid option given in this way to a function/method will result in a 'no such option' error. If you do not die on error but are in strict mode, then the called function will not be executed.

connect

  connect($dsn, $user, $password, %opts);
  $h->connect($dsn, $user, $password, %opts);

This function/method permits to connect a handle which is not currently connected to a database (either because it was created with new_no_connect or because disconnect has been called on it). It also enable to connect to library to a database in a purely functionnal way (without using objects). In that case you can maintain only a single connection to a database. This is the connection that will be used by all the function of this library when not called as an object method. This connection will be refered to as the default handle in this documentation. Its the handle that all other function will use when not applied to an object.

You can perfectly mix together the two styles (OO and functionnal): that is, have the library connected in a functionnal style to a database and have multiple other connections openned through the OO interface (with new).

As stated above, this function accepts an optional hash reference as its last argument. Note, however, that the option in this hash will be in effect only for the duration of the connect call, while options passed as the last argument of the constructors (new and new_no_connect) remain in effect until they are modified. This is true even if connect is called to create a default connection for the library. You should use set_options to set options permanently for the default database handle (or any other handle after its creation).

This function will return a true value if the connection succeed and will die or return undef otherwise (depending on the die_on_error option). Not that in strict mode it is an error to try to connect a handle which is already connected to a database.

disconnect

  disconnect();

This function disconnect the default handle of the library from its current connection. You can later on reconnect the library to an other database (or to the same) with the connect function.

  $h->disconnect();

This function disconnect the handle it is applied on from its database. Note that the handle itself is not destroyed and can be reused later on with the connect method.

is_connected

  my $v = is_connected();
  my $v = $h->is_connected();

This call returns whether the default handle of the library and/or a given handle is currently connected to a database.

This function does not actually check the connection to the database. So it is possible that this call returns true but that a later call to a function which does access the database will fail if, e.g., you have lost your network connection.

get_default_handle

  my $h = get_default_handle();

Return the default handle of the library (the one used by all function when not applied on an object). The returned handle is an SQL::Exec object and may then be used as any other handles through the OO interface, but it will still be used by the functionnal interface of this library.

get_dbh

  my $dbh = get_dbh();
  my $dbh = $h->get_dbh();

Returns the internal DBI handle to your database. This handle may be used in conjonction with other libraries which can accept a connected handle.

Note that, because of the use of DBIx::Connector, this handle may change during the life of your program. If possible, you should rather use the get_conn method (see below) to get a persistant handle.

get_conn

  my $conn = get_conn();
  my $conn = $h->get_conn();

Returns the internal DBIx::Connector handle to your database. This handle may be used in conjonction with other libraries which can accept such a handle (e.g. DBIx::Lite). This handle will not change while you do not close your connection to your database.

errstr

  my $e = errstr();
  my $e = $c->errstr;

This function returns an error string associated with the last call to the library made with a given handle (or with the default handle). This function will return undef if the last call did not raise an error.

warnstr

  my $e = warnstr();
  my $e = $c->warnstr;

This function returns a warning string associated with the last call to the library made with a given handle (or with the default handle). This function will return undef if the last call did not raise a warning.

Note that a single call way raise multiple warning. In that case, only the last one will we stored in this variable.

set_options

  set_options(HASH);
  $c->set_options(HASH);

This function sets the option of the given connection handle (or of the default handle). The HASH describing the option may be given as a list of <option = value>> or as a reference to a hash.

The function returns a hash with the previous value of all modified options. As a special case, if the function is called without argument, it will returns a hash with the value of all the options. In both cases, this hash is returned as a list in list context and as a hash reference in scalar context.

If an error happen (e.g. use of an invalid value for an option) the function returns undef or an empty list and nothing is modified. In strict mode it is also an error to try to set an nonexistant option.

If the options that you are setting include the strict option, the value of the strict mode is not defined during the execution of this function (that is, it may either be true or false).

See below for a list of the available options.

Options

You will find below a list of the currently available options. Each of these options may be accessed through its dedicated function or with either of the set_option/set_options functions.

die_on_error

  set_options(die_on_error => val);
  die_on_error(val);

This option (which default to true) specify if an error condition abort the execution of your program or not. If so, the croak function will be called (and you may trap the error with eval). If not, the function call will still abort and return undef or an empty list (depending on the context). When this may be a valid result for the function, you may call the errstr function/method to get the last error message or undef if the last call was succesful.

print_error

  set_options(print_error => val);
  print_error(val);

This option (which default to true) control whether the errors are printed or not (this does not depend on the setting of the die_on_error option). If the supplied value is true the errors are printed to STDERR, otherwise nothing is printed.

print_warning

  set_options(print_warning => val);
  print_warning(val);

This option (which default to true) control whether the warning are printed or not. If the supplied value is true the warnings are printed to STDERR, otherwise nothing is printed.

print_query

  set_options(print_query => FH);
  print_query(FH);

This option (which default to undef) control whether the queries are printed before being executed. Unless the previous option, to set it, you must pass it an open file handle. The queries will then be printed to this handle.

strict

  set_options(strict => val);
  strict(val);

This option (which default to true) control the so-called strict mode of the library. It has 3 possible settings. If set to a true value, some condition are checked to ensure that the operations of the library are as safe as possible (the exact condition are described in the documentation of the function to which they apply). When the condition are not met, an error is thrown (what happens exactly depends on the die_on_error and print_error options).

If this option is set to a defined false value (such as '0'), then the strict conditions are still tested, but only result in a warning when they are not met.

Finally, if this option is set to undef then the nothing happens when a strict condition is not met (and the tests will altogether be omitted if they are potentially costly).

replace

  set_option(replace => \&code);
  replace(\&code);
  replace($obj);
  replace(HASH);
  replace(undef);

This option allows to set up a procedure which get the possibility to modify an SQL query before it is executed (e.g. to replace generic parameter by specific name). The default (when the option is undef) is that nothing is done.

If this option is a CODE reference (or an anonymous sub-function), then this function is called each time you supply an SQL query to this library with the query in the $_ variable. The function may modify this variable and the resulting value of $_ is executed. The call to this function takes place before the spliting of the SQL query (if auto_split is true).

You may also pass to this option a HASH reference. In that case, the hash describes a series of replacement to be performed on the SQL query (see the example below). Internally, this requires the String::Replace library. The function will croak if you call it with a HASH and you do not have this library installed. When using the replace function (rather than the set_options function) you may give a list descibing a HASH, rather than a HASH reference.

Finally, you may also give to this function any object which have a replace method (e.g. an already built String::Replace object). This method will then be called with your SQL queries (using arguments and return values, and not the $_ variable).

Here is an example (which will work with an SQLite database):

  replace(String::Replace->new(table_name => 't'));
  execute('create table table_name (a)');
  replace(table_name => 't');
  execute('insert into table_name values (1)');
  query_one_value('select * from table_name', { replace => sub { s/table_name/t/g } }) == 1

connect_options

Do not use this option...

auto_split

This option (which default to true) controls whether the queries are split in atomic statement before being sent to the database. If it is not set, your queries will be sent as-is to the database, with their ending terminator (if any), this may result in error with some database driver which do not allow for multi-statement queries. You should not set this option to a false value unless you know what you are doing.

The spliting facility is provided by the SQL::SplitStatement package.

auto_transaction

  set_options(auto_transaction => val);
  auto_transaction(val);

This option (which default to true) controls whether the execute and execute_multiple functions automatically start a transaction whenever they execute more than one statement.

use_connector

Do not use this option...

stop_on_error

  set_options(stop_on_error => val);
  stop_on_error(val);

This option is only usefull when the die_on_error and strict_error options are false and will control if the execution is interupted when an error occurs during a multi-statement query. Its default value is true.

line_separator

  set_options(line_separator => val);
  line_separator(val);

This option is used only by the query_to_file function. It specifies the line separator used between different records. The default value is "\n".

value_separator

  set_options(value_separator => val);
  line_separator(val);

This option is used only by the query_to_file function. It specifies the value separator used between different value of a records. The default value is ';'.

sub set_option { my $c = &get_handle;

        return $c->set_options({$_[0] => $_[1]}) if @_ == 2;
        
        $c->error("Bad number of arguments in %s::set_option", ref $c);
        return;
}

STANDARD QUERY FUNCTIONS

execute

  execute(SQL);
  $c->execute(SQL);

This function execute the SQL code contained in its argument. The SQL is first split at the boundary of each statement that it contains (except if the auto_split option is false) and is then executed statement by statement in a single transaction (meaning that if one of the statement fails, nothing is changed in your database). If the auto_transaction option is false, each of your statement will be executed atomically and all modification will be recorded immediately.

Optionnaly, you may also provide a reference to an array of SQL queries instead of a single SQL query. In that case, each query will be split independently (if auto_split is true) and all the resulting queries will be executed in order inside one single transaction (if auto_transaction is true). Note that you may not pass a list of SQL query, but only a reference to such a list (for compatibility with a future version of the library).

The function will return a defined value if everything succeeded, and undef if an error happen (and it is ignored, otherwise, the function will croak).

The returned value may or may not be the total number of lines modified by your query.

Here are examples of valid call to the execute function:

  execute('insert into t values (1)');
  execute('insert into t values (1);insert into t values (1)');
  execute(['insert into t values (1)', 'insert into t values (1)']);

execute_multiple

  execute_multiple(SQL, PARAM_LIST);
  $c->execute_multiple(SQL, PARAM_LIST);

This function executes one or multiple time an SQL query with the provided parameters. The SQL query may be only a single statement (although this condition is not tested if auto_split is false, but then there is no garantee on what will happen).

The SQL query can contain placeholder ('?' characters) in place of SQL values. These placeholder will be replaced during the execution by the parameters that you provide. You should provide a list of parameters with the same number of parameters than the number of placeholder in the statement. You may provide this list as an array or an array reference.

You may also provide a list of array reference or a reference to an array of array reference. In that case, the query will be executed once for each element of this array (the external one), with the placeholders taking the values given in the sub-arrays.

As a special case, if there is only a single placeholder in your query, you may provide a simple list of parameters to execute the query multiple time (each with one of the parameter).

If the auto_transaction option is true, then all the executions of your query will be performed atomically inside a single transaction. This is usefull for example to performs many insertions in a table in an efficient manner.

Here are three pairs of equivalent call to execute_multiple:

  execute_multiple('insert into t values (?, ?)', 1, 2);
  execute_multiple('insert into t values (?, ?)', [1, 2]);
  
  execute_multiple('insert into t values (?, ?)', [1, 2], [3, 4]);
  execute_multiple('insert into t values (?, ?)', [[1, 2], [3, 4]]);
  
  execute_multiple('insert into t values (?)', 1, 2, 3);
  execute_multiple('insert into t values (?)', [[1], [2], [3]]);

query_one_value

  my $v = query_one_value(SQL, LIST);
  my $v = $h->query_one_value(SQL, LIST);

This function return one scalar value corresponding to the result of the SQL query provided. This query must be a data returning query (e.g. SELECT).

If auto_split is activated, the SQL query provided to this function may not contains more than one statement (otherwise an error is thrown). If the option is not set, this condition will not be tested and there is no guarantee on what will happens if you try to execute more than one statement with this function.

If the SQL statement has parameter placeholders, they should be provided in the arguments list of the call. As this function expects a single statement, the parameters should be passed directly as a list and not in an array-ref.

  query_one_value('select a, b from table where a = ?', 42);

The function will raise an error if nothing is returned by your query (even if the SQL code itself is valid) and, if in strict mode, the function will also fail if your query returns more than one line or one column (but note that the query is still executed).

In case of an error (and if die_on_error is not set) the function will return undef. You must not that this value may also be returned if your query returns a NULL value. In that case to check if an error happened you must check the errstr function which will return undef if there was no errors.

query_one_line

  my @l = query_one_line(SQL,LIST);
  my @l = $h->query_one_line(SQL,LIST);
  my $l = query_one_line(SQL,LIST);
  my $l = $h->query_one_line(SQL,LIST);

This function returns a list corresponding to one line of result of the provided SQL query. If called in scalar context, the function will return a reference to an array rather than a list. You may safely store this array which will not be reused by the library.

In list context, the function will return an empty list in case of an error. You may distinguish this from a query returning no columns with the errstr function. In scalar context, the function will return undef in case of error or a reference to an empty array for query returning no columns.

An error will happen if the query returns no rows at all and, if you are in strict mode, an error will also happen if the query returns more than one rows.

The same limitation applies to this function as for the query_one_line about the number of statement in your query and the parameter for the statement placeholders.

query_all_lines

  my @a = query_all_lines(SQL,LIST);
  my @a = $h->query_all_lines(SQL,LIST);
  my $a = query_all_lines(SQL,LIST);
  my $a = $h->query_all_lines(SQL,LIST);

This function executes the given SQL and returns all the returned data from this query. In list context, the fonction returns a list of all the lines. Each lines is a reference to an array, even if there is only one column per lines (use the query_one_column function for that). In scalar context, the function returns a reference to an array containing each of the array reference for each lines.

In case of errors, if die_on_error is not set, the function will return undef in scalar context and an empty list in list context. This could also be the correct result of a query returning no rows, use the errstr function to distinguish between these two cases.

If there is an error during the fetching of the data and that die_on_error is not set and you are not in strict mode, then all the data already fetched will be returned but no tentatives will be done to try to fetch any more data.

The same limitation applies to this function as for the query_one_line about the number of statement in your query and the parameter for the statement placeholders.

query_one_column

  my @l = query_one_column(SQL,LIST);
  my @l = $h->query_one_column(SQL,LIST);
  my $l = query_one_column(SQL,LIST);
  my $l = $h->query_one_column(SQL,LIST);

This function returns a list corresponding to one column of result of the provided SQL query. If called in scalar context, the function will return a reference to an array rather than a list. You may safely store this array which will not be reused by the library.

In list context, the function will return an empty list in case of an error. You may distinguish this from a query returning no lines with the errstr function. In scalar context, the function will return undef in case of error or a reference to an empty array for query returning no lines.

An error will happen if the query returns no columns at all and, if you are in strict mode, an error will also happen if the query returns more than one columns.

The same limitation applies to this function as for the query_one_line about the number of statement in your query and the parameter for the statement placeholders.

query_to_file

  query_to_file(SQL, file_name, LIST);
  my $v = $h->query_one_value(SQL, file_name, LIST);
  query_to_file(SQL, FH, LIST);

This function execute an SQL query and send its output to a file or file handle.

The first argument is the query to execute (which may contain only a single statement).

The second argument is the destination of the data. You may pass either a file name or a reference to an IO or GLOB. If it is omitted or undef the data will go to STDOUT. If you pass a filename, you may prefix it with <<'>'>>> to append to the file (rather that to erase it).

Changed in 0.09: The data are written with each value of a raw separated by the value of the value_separator option (which defaults to ';') and each row separated by the value of the line_separator option (which defaults to "\n").

The same limitation applies to this function as for the query_one_line about the number of statement in your query and the parameter for the statement placeholders.

query_one_hash

  my %h = query_one_hash(SQL,LIST);
  my %h = $h->query_one_hash(SQL,LIST);
  my $h = query_one_hash(SQL,LIST);
  my $h = $h->query_one_hash(SQL,LIST);

query_all_hashes

  my @h = query_all_hashes(SQL,LIST);
  my @h = $h->query_all_hashes(SQL,LIST);
  my $h = query_all_hashes(SQL,LIST);
  my $h = $h->query_all_hashes(SQL,LIST);

PREPARED STATEMENTS

The library offers full support for prepared statements which can be executed multiple times with different parameters.

prepare

  $st = prepare(SQL);
  $st = $h->prepare(SQL);

All standard query functions are accessible through prepared statements, except that the execute function behave exactly like the execute_multiple function. Users are encouraged to use the execute name when manipulating prepared statement.

Using a prepared statement

  $st->execute(LIST);
  $st->query_one_value(LIST);
  $st->query_one_line(LIST);
  $st->query_all_lines(LIST);
  $st->query_one_column(LIST);
  $st->query_to_file(FH, LIST);
  $st->query_to_file(filename, LIST);
  $st->query_one_hash(LIST);
  $st->query_all_hashes(LIST);

HIGH LEVEL QUERY FUNCTIONS

These functions (or method) provide higher level interface to the database. The implemetations provided here try to be generic and portable but they may not work with any database driver. If necessary, these functions will be overidden in the database specific sub-classes. Be sure to check the documentation for the sub-classe that you are using (if any) because the arguments of these function may differ from their base version.

count_lines

  my $n = count_lines(SQL);
  my $n = $c->count_lines(SQL);

This function takes an SQL query (SELECT-like), executes it and return the number of lines that the query would have returned (with, e.g., the query_all_lines functions).

table_exists

  my $b = table_exists(table_name);
  my $b = $c->table_exists(table_name);

This function returns a boolean value indicating if there is a table with name table_name. The default implementation may erroneously returns false if the table exists but you do not have enough rights to access it.

This function might also returns true when there is an object with the correct name looking like a table (e.g. a view) in the database.

get_columns

  my @c = get_columns(table_name);
  my $c = $c->get_columns(table_name);

get_primary_key

  my @c = get_primary_key(table_name);
  my $c = $c->get_primary_key(table_name);

STATEMENTS INFORMATION FUNCTIONS

All the functions (or methods) below can be applied either to an SQL::Exec object (or to the default object) in which case they will return informations about the previous query that was executed, or they can be applied to a prepared statement in which case they will return information about the statement currently prepared.

The only exception is that queries executed through the execute function/method will not count as the last query for these functions. This does not apply to the execute method of a prepared statement nor to the execute_multiple function/method.

num_of_params

  my $n = num_of_params();
  my $n = $c->num_of_params();
  my $n = $st->num_of_params();

Returns the number of

num_of_fields

  my $n = num_of_fields();
  my $n = $c->num_of_fields();
  my $n = $st->num_of_fields();

get_fields

  my @f = get_fields();
  my $f = get_fields();
  my @f = $st->get_fields();
  my @f = $st->get_fields();

SUB-CLASSING

The implementation of this library is as generic as possible. However some specific functions can be better written for some specific database server and some helper function can be easier to use if they are tuned for a single database server.

This specific support is provided through sub-classse which extend both the OO and the functionnal interface of this library. As stated above, if there is a sub-classe for your specific database, you should use it instead of this module, otherwise.

Sub-classes

The sub-classes currently existing are the following ones:

SQLite: the in-file or in memory database with DBD::SQLite;
Oracle: access to Oracle database server with DBD::Oracle;
ODBC: access to any ODBC enabled DBMS through DBD::ODBC;
Teradata: access to a Teradata database with the ODBC driver (there is a DBD::Teradata DBI driver using the native driver for this database (CLI), but its latest version is not on CPAN, so I recommend using the ODBC interface).

If your database of choice is not yet supported, let me know it and I will do my best to add a module for it (if the DBMS is freely available) or help you add this support (if I cannot have access to an instance of this database server).

In the meantime, SQL::Exec should just work with your database. If that is not the case, you should report this as a bug.
