NAME

App::Repository::DBI - a repository which relies on a DBI interface to a relational database (no caching)

SYNOPSIS

use App::Repository::DBI;

(see man page for App::Repository for additional methods)

$rep = App::Repository::DBI->new();        # looks for %ENV, then config file

DESCRIPTION

The App::Repository::DBI class encapsulates all access to the database, changing SQL statements into get(), save(), and delete() methods.

Public Methods

_connect()

* Signature: $repository->_connect();
* Param:     void
* Return:    void
* Throws:    App::Exception::Repository
* Since:     0.50

Sample Usage: 

$repository->_connect();

Connects to the repository. Most repositories have some connection initialization that takes time and therefore should be done once. Then many operations may be executed against the repository. Finally the connection to the repository is closed (_disconnect()).

The default implementation of _connect() does nothing. It is intended to be overridden in the subclass (if necessary).

_disconnect()

* Signature: $repository->_disconnect();
* Param:     void
* Return:    void
* Throws:    App::Exception::Repository
* Since:     0.50

Sample Usage: 

$repository->_disconnect();

Disconnects from the repository.

The default implementation of _disconnect() does nothing. It is intended to be overridden in the subclass (if necessary).

All implementations of _disconnect() by a subclass must be sensitive to whether the object is actually currently connected to the repository. Thus, _disconnect() should be callable without negative consequences even when the repository is already disconnected.
