DESCRIPTION

This Yancy backend allows you to connect to a SQLite database to manage the data inside. This backend uses Mojo::SQLite to connect to SQLite.

See Yancy::Backend for the methods this backend has and their return values.

Backend URL

The URL for this backend takes the form sqlite:<filename.db>.

Some examples:

    # A database file in the current directory
    sqlite:filename.db

    # In a specific location
    sqlite:/tmp/filename.db

Schema Names

The schema names for this backend are the names of the tables in the database.

So, if you have the following schema:

    CREATE TABLE people (
        id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
        name VARCHAR NOT NULL,
        email VARCHAR NOT NULL
    );
    CREATE TABLE business (
        id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
        name VARCHAR NOT NULL,
        email VARCHAR NULL
    );

You could map that to the following schema:

    {
        backend => 'sqlite:filename.db',
        schema => {
            People => {
                required => [ 'name', 'email' ],
                properties => {
                    id => {
                        type => 'integer',
                        readOnly => 1,
                    },
                    name => { type => 'string' },
                    email => { type => 'string' },
                },
            },
            Business => {
                required => [ 'name' ],
                properties => {
                    id => {
                        type => 'integer',
                        readOnly => 1,
                    },
                    name => { type => 'string' },
                    email => { type => 'string' },
                },
            },
        },
    }
