Class::DBI::Factory Description
Class::DBI::Factory is a factory interface to a set of Class::DBI classes, with optional mod_perl application skeleton. Class::DBI::Factory is a factory interface to a set of Class::DBI classes, with optional mod_perl application skeleton.SYNOPSIS # in a simple script: my $factory = Class::DBI::Factory->new; $factory->set_db({ db_type => 'mysql', db_name => 'items', db_username => 'me', db_password => 'password', }); $factory->use_classes(qw(My::Item)); my @columns = $factory->columns('item'); my $item = $factory->retrieve('item', 1); my $iterator = $factory->search('item', year => 1980); # in an apache host configuration: PerlSetEnv _CDF_SITE_CONFIG '/home/my_site/conf/cdf.conf' < Location "/directory" > SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Class::DBI::Factory::Handler < /Location > # and on a template somewhere: < p > < br > < /p >INTRODUCTIONIf you use Class::DBI::Factory by itself, it's a quick, clean way to work with a set of Class::DBI data classes, providing a simple way to access their data and class methods and removing some of cdbi's limitations: with the factory it's very easy to use the same data classes for different databases at the same time.If you use Class::DBI::Factory with the set of helper classes that come with it, it's a full framework for MVC-friendly mod_perl-based web applications. The supplied Handler base class makes the factory's simple, consistent interface available on TT2 (or other) templates and hides all the complexity of working under mod_perl. In this context the database-abstraction that the factory offers allows you to use the same application on several sites on the same server, which is where all this began many years ago.CDF is a simple alternative to application frameworks like Maypole and Catalyst. It doesn't automate the creation of CDBI classes - I prefer to write them - but it handles pretty much everything else and is very easy to extend and override. Requirements: · Perl
