ActiveRecord::Simple
ActiveRecord::Simple - Simple to use lightweight implementation of ActiveRecord pattern.
It is fast, don't have any dependencies and realy easy to use.
The basic setup of your package should be:
package Model::Foo;
use base 'ActiveRecord::Simple';
__PACKAGE__->table_name('foo');
__PACKAGE__->columns(['id', 'bar', 'baz']);
__PACKAGE__->primary_key('id');
1;
And then, you can use your package in a program:
use Foo;
my $foo = Foo->new({ bar => 'value', baz => 'value' });
$foo->save();
# or
my $foo = Foo->get(1);
say $foo->bar;
# or
$foo->bar('new value')->save();
say $foo->bar;
That's it. ActiveRecord::Simple provides a variety of techniques to make your work with data little easier. It contains only a basic set of operations, such as search, create, update and delete data.
ActiveRecord::Simple doesn't handle your database connection, but you may keep it in the special method (class attribute) "dbh":
Foo->dbh($dbh);
# or
ActiveRecord::Simple->dbh($dbh);
# or you can use a special function, like this:
sub dbhandler {
unless ( $dbh->ping ) {
$dbh->connect("...");
}
return $dbh;
}
ActiveRecord::Simple->dbh( &dbhandler );
See pod documentation of the module for more information about using ActiveRecord::Simple.
