NAME

Bio::Chado::Schema

SYNOPSIS

use lib qw(t/lib);
use Bio::Chado::Schema::Test;
use Test::More;

my $schema = Bio::Chado::Schema::Test->init_schema();

SYNOPSIS

use Bio::Chado::Schema;

my $chado = Bio::Chado::Schema->connect( $dsn, $user, $password );

print "number of rows in feature table: ",
      $chado->resultset('Sequence::Feature')->count,
      "\n";

DESCRIPTION

This module provides the basic utilities to write tests against Bio::Chado::Schema.

DESCRIPTION

This is a standard object-relational mapping layer for use with the GMOD Chado database schema. This layer is implemented with DBIx::Class, generated with the help of the very fine DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader module.

Chado is an open-source modular database schema for biological data. It is divided into several notional "modules", which are reflected in the namespace organization of this package. Note that modules in the Chado context refers to sets of tables, they are not modules in the Perl sense.

To learn how to use this DBIx::Class ORM layer, a good starting point is the DBIx::Class::Manual.

NAME

Bio::Chado::Schema::Test - Library to be used by Bio::Chado::Schema test scripts.

METHODS

init_schema

my $schema = Bio::Chado::Schema::Test->init_schema(
  deploy            => 1,
  populate          => 1,
  storage_type      => '::DBI::Replicated',
  storage_type_args => {
    balancer_type=>'DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Replicated::Balancer::Random'
  },
);

This method removes the test SQLite database in t/var/BCS.db and then creates a new, empty database.

This method will call deploy_schema() by default, unless the deploy flag is set to 0.

This method will call populate_schema() if the populate argument is set to a true value.

deploy_schema

Bio::Chado::Schema::Test->deploy_schema( $schema );

This method does one of two things to the schema. It can either call the experimental $schema->deploy() if the BCSTEST_SQLT_DEPLOY environment variable is set, otherwise the default is to read in the t/lib/sqlite.sql file and execute the SQL within. Either way you end up with a fresh set of tables for testing.

populate_schema

Bio::Chado::Schema::Test->populate_schema( $schema );

After you deploy your schema you can use this method to populate the tables with test data.
