The method making is controlled by the parameters given along with the use statement, as seen in the L. =head1 PARAMETERS These parameters are all passed to the module when it is imported via C. =over 4 =item * schema => $schema_name This parameter is B. =item * class_root => $class_name If given, this will be used as the root of the class names generated by this module. This root should not end in '::'. If none is given, then the calling module's name is used as the root. See L for more information. =item * all => $bool This tells this module to make all of the methods it possibly can. See L for more details. If individual method creation options are set as false, then that setting will be respected, so you could use use Alzabo::MethodMaker( schema => 'foo', all => 1, tables => 0 ); to turn on all of the regular options B for "tables". =item * name_maker => \&naming_sub If provided, then this callback will be called any time a method name needs to be generated. This allows you to have full control over the resulting names. Otherwise names are generated as described in the documentation. The callback is expected to return a name for the method to be used. This name should not be fully qualified or contain any class designation as this will be handled by MethodMaker. It is important that none of the names returned conflict with existing methods for the object the method is being added to. For example, when adding methods that return column objects to a table, if you have a column called 'name' and try to use that as the method name, it won't work. C objects already have such a method, which returns the name of the table. See the relevant documentation of the schema, table, and row objects for a list of methods they contain. The L section contains the details of what parameters are passed to this callback. I that if you have a large complex schema you will almost certainly need to provide a custom naming subroutine to avoid name conflicts. =back =head1 EFFECTS Using this module has several effects on your schema's objects. =head2 New Class Names Your schema, table, and row objects to be blessed into subclasses of L|Alzabo::Runtime::Schema>, L|Alzabo::Runtime::Table>, L|Alzabo::Runtime::Row>, respectively. These subclasses contain the various methods created by this module. The new class names are formed by using the L<"class_root"|Alzabo::MethodMaker/PARAMETERS> parameter and adding onto it. In order to make it convenient to add new methods to the table and row classes, the created table classes are all subclasses of a new class based on your class root, and the same thing is done for all created row classes. =over 4 =item * Schema ::Schema =item * Tables ::Table:: All tables will be subclasses of: ::Table =item * Rows ::Row::
All rows will be subclasses of: ::Row =back With a root of "My::MovieDB", and a schema with only two tables, "Movie" and "Image", this would result in the following class names: My::MovieDB::Schema My::MovieDB::Table::Movie - subclass of My::MovieDB::Table My::MovieDB::Row::Movie - subclass of My::MovieDB::Row My::MovieDB::Table::Image - subclass of My::MovieDB::Table My::MovieDB::Row::Image - subclass of My::MovieDB::Row =head2 Loading Classes For each class into which an object is blessed, this module will attempt to load that class via a C statement. If there is no module found this will not cause an error. If this class defines any methods that have the same name as those this module generates, then this module will not attempt to generate them. =head1 METHOD CREATION OPTIONS When using Alzabo::MethodMaker, you may specify any of the following parameters. Specifying "all" causes all of them to be used. =head2 Schema object methods =over 4 =item * tables => $bool Creates methods for the schema that return the table object matching the name of the method. For example, given a schema containing tables named "Movie" and "Image", this would create methods that could be called as C<< $schema->Movie >> and C<< $schema->Image >>. =back =head2 Table object methods. =over 4 =item * table_columns => $bool Creates methods for the tables that return the column object matching the name of the method. This is quite similar to the C option for schemas. So if our "Movie" table had a column called "title", we could write C<< $schema->Movie->title >>. =item * insert_hooks => $bool Look for hooks to wrap around the C method in L|Alzabo::Runtime::Table>. See L for more details. You have to define either a C and/or C method for the generated table class or this parameter will not do anything. See the L section for more details. =back =head2 Row object methods =over 4 =item * row_columns => $bool This tells MethodMaker to create get/set methods for each column a row has. These methods take a single optional argument, which if given will cause that column to be updated for the row. =item * update_hooks => $bool Look for hooks to wrap around the C method in L|Alzabo::Runtime::Row>. See L for more details. You have to define a C and/or C method for the generated row class or this parameter will not do anything. See the L section for more details. =item * select_hooks => $bool Look for hooks to wrap around the C
. It is the table object the schema object's method will return. =back When the type is "table_column" or "row_column": =over 4 =item * column => Alzabo::Column object When the type is "table_column", this is the column object the method will return. When the type is "row_column", then it is the column whose B the method will return. =back When the type is "foreign_key", "linking_table", or "self_relation": =over 4 =item * foreign_key => Alzabo::ForeignKey object This is the foreign key on which the method is based. =back It is possible to create an n..n relationship between a table and itself, and MethodMaker will attempt to generate linking table methods for such relationships, so your naming sub may need to take this into account. When the type is "foreign_key": =over 4 =item * plural => $bool This indicates whether or not the method that is being created will return a cursor object (true) or a row object (false). =back When the type is "linking_table": =over 4 =item * foreign_key_2 => Alzabo::ForeignKey object When making a linking table method, two foreign keys are used. The C is from the table being linked from to the linking table. This parameter is the foreign key from the linking table to the table being linked to. =back When the type is "lookup_columns": =over 4 =item * column => Alzabo::Column object When making lookup column methods, this column is the column in the foreign table for which a method is being made. =back When the type is "self_relation": =over 4 =item * parent => $boolean This indicates whether or not the method being created will return parent objects (true) or child objects (false). =back =head1 NAMING SUB EXAMPLE Here is an example that covers all of the possible options: use Lingua::EN::Inflect; sub namer { my %p = @_; # Table object can be returned from the schema via methods such as $schema->User_t; return $p{table}->name . '_t' if $p{type} eq 'table'; # Column objects are returned similarly, via $schema->User_t->username_c; return $p{column}->name . '_c' if $p{type} eq 'table_column'; # If I have a row object, I can get at the columns via their # names, for example $user->username; return $p{column}->name if $p{type} eq 'row_column'; # This manipulates the table names a bit to generate names. For # example, if I have a table called UserRating and a 1..n # relationship from User to UserRating, I'll end up with a method # on rows in the User table called ->Ratings which returns a row # cursor of rows from the UserRating table. if ( $p{type} eq 'foreign_key' ) { my $name = $p{foreign_key}->table_to->name; my $from = $p{foreign_key}->table_from->name; $name =~ s/$from//; if ($p{plural}) { return my_PL( $name ); } else { return $name; } } # This is very similar to how foreign keys are handled. Assume # we have the tables Restaurant, Cuisine, and RestaurantCuisine. # If we are generating a method for the link from Restaurant # through to Cuisine, we'll have a method on Restaurant table # rows called ->Cuisines, which will return a cursor of rows from # the Cuisine table. # # Note: this will generate a bad name if given a linking table # that links a table to itself. if ( $p{type} eq 'linking_table' ) { my $method = $p{foreign_key}->table_to->name; my $tname = $p{foreign_key}->table_from->name; $method =~ s/$tname//; return my_PL($method); } # Lookup columns are columns if foreign tables for which there # exists a one-to-one or many-to-one relationship. In cases such # as these, it is often the case that the foreign table is rarely # used on its own, but rather it primarily used as a lookup table # for values that should appear to be part of other tables. # # For example, an Address table might have a many-to-one # relationship with a State table. The State table would contain # the columns 'name' and 'abbreviation'. If we have # an Address table row, it is convenient to simply be able to say # $address->state_name and $address->state_abbreviation. if ( $p{type} eq 'lookup_columns' ) { return join '_', map { lc $_->name } $p{foreign_key}->table_to, $p{column}; } # This should be fairly self-explanatory. return $p{parent} ? 'parent' : 'children' if $p{type} eq 'self_relation'; # And just to make sure that nothing slips by us we do this. die "unknown type in call to naming sub: $p{type}\n"; } # Lingua::EN::Inflect did not handle the word 'hours' properly when this was written sub my_PL { my $name = shift; return $name if $name =~ /hours$/i; return Lingua::EN::Inflect::PL($name); } =head1 GENERATED DOCUMENTATION This module keeps track of methods that are generated and can in turn generate basic POD for those methods. Any schema that has had methods generated for it by Alzabo::MethodMaker will have an additional method, C. This will return documentation for the schema object's methods, as well as any documentation available for objects that the schema contains, in this case tables. The tables in turn return their own documentation plus that of their contained row classes. It is also possible to call the C method on any generated table or row class individually. A simple script like the following can be used to send all of the generated documentation to C. use Alzabo::MethodMaker ( schema => 'foo', all => 1 ); my $s = Alzabo::Runtime::Schema->load_from_file( name => 'foo' ); print $s->docs_as_pod; =head1 AUTHOR Dave Rolsky, =cut
