NAME

ZConf::DBI::utils - Assorted utilities for ZConf::DBI.

VERSION

Version 0.0.0

SYNOPSIS

This is primarily meant for quick small things. If you are going to calling a lot of stuff here repeatively/heavily, you are probally going to be better off making use of what ever is being called by the function directly.

METHODS

new

This initiates the object.

One arguement is required and it is the 'ZConf::DBI' object.

my $foo=ZConf::DBI::util->new($zcdbi);
if($foo->error){
    warn('error code:'.$foo->error.': '.$foo->errorString);
}

create_table

This creates a new table using DBIx::Admin::CreateTable->create_table.

Three arguements are required. The first is the data source name. The second is the table name. The third is a SQL string describing the columns.

$foo->create_table('whatever', 'sometable', 'id char(32) primary key, data varchar(255) not null');
if($foo->error){
    warn('error code:'.$error.': '.$foo->errorString);
}

do

This executes the do statement on a DBH created from the data source.

Two arguements are required. The first is the data source. The second is the SQL.

$foo->create_table('whatever', 'drop sequence fubar;');
if($foo->error){
    warn('error code:'.$error.': '.$foo->errorString);
}

drop_table

This drops a table using DBIx::Admin::CreateTable->drop_table.

Two arguements are required. The first is the data source name. The second is the table name.

$foo->create_table('whatever', 'sometable');
if($foo->error){
    warn('error code:'.$error.': '.$foo->errorString);
}

error

Returns the current error code and true if there is an error.

If there is no error, undef is returned.

my $error=$foo->error;
if($error){
    warn('error code:'.$error.': '.$foo->errorString);
}

errorString

Returns the error string if there is one. If there is not, it will return undef.

my $error=$foo->error;
if($error){
    warn('error code:'.$error.': '.$foo->errorString);
}

table_columns

This returns a array reference of table column names found by DBIx::Admin::TableInfo->columns.

There are three arguements taken. The first, and required, is the data source name. The second, and optional, is the schema name. The third, and optional, is the schema.

my $tables=$foo->table_columns('tigerline', 'geometry_columns');
if($foo->error){
    warn('error code:'.$foo->error.': '.$foo->errorString);
}

table_info

This returns a hash reference of table column names found by DBIx::Admin::TableInfo->info.

There are two arguements taken. The first, and required, is the data source name. The second, and optional, is the schema name.

my $tables=$foo->table_info('tigerline', 'geometry_columns');
if($foo->error){
    warn('error "'.$foo->error.'"');
}

tables

This returns a array refernce of table names found by DBIx::Admin::TableInfo->tables.

There are two arguements taken. The first, and required, is the data source name. The second, and optional, is the schema name.

my $tables=$foo->tables('tigerline');
if($foo->error){
    warn('error "'.$foo->error.'"');
}

It does the following.

$self->{error}=undef;
$self->{errorString}=undef;
