NAME

PGObject::Util::BulkUpload - Bulk Upload records into PostgreSQL

VERSION

Version 0.02

SYNOPSIS

To insert all rows into a table using COPY:

  PGObject::Util::BulkUpload->copy(
      {table => 'mytable', insert_cols => ['col1', 'col2'], dbh => $dbh}, 
      @objects
  );

To copy to a temp table and then upsert:

  PGObject::Util::BulkUpload->upsert(
      {table       => 'mytable', 
       insert_cols => ['col1', 'col2'], 
       update_cols => ['col1'],
       key_cols    => ['col2'],
       dbh         => $dbh}, 
      @objects
  );

Or if you prefer to run the statements yourself:

  PGObject::Util::BulkUpload->statement(
     table => 'mytable', type  => 'temp', tempname => 'foo_123'
  );
  PGObject::Util::BulkUpload->statement(
     table => 'mytable', type  => 'copy', insert_cols => ['col1', 'col2']
  );
  PGObject::Util::BulkUpload->statement(
      type        => 'upsert',
      tempname    => 'foo_123',
      table       => 'mytable',
      insert_cols => ['col1', 'col2'],
      update_cols => ['col1'],
      key_cols    => ['col2']
  );

If you are running repetitive calls, you may be able to trade time for memory using Memoize by unning the following:

  PGObject::Util::BulkUpload->memoize_statements;

To unmemoize:

  PGObject::Util::BulkUpload->unmemoize;

To flush cache

  PGObject::Util::BulkUpload->flush_memoization;

DESCRIPTION

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

memoize_statements

This function exists to memoize statement calls, i.e. generate the exact same statements on the same argument calls. This isn't too likely to be useful in most cases but it may be if you have repeated bulk loader calls in a persistent script (for example real-time importing of csv data from a frequent source).

unmemoize

Unmemoizes the statement calls.

flush_memoization

Flushes the cache for statement memoization. Does *not* flush the cache for escaping memoization since that is a bigger win and a pure function accepting simple strings.

statement

This takes the following arguments and returns a suitable SQL statement

type

Type of statement. Options are:

temp

Create a temporary table

copy

sql COPY statement

upsert

Update/Insert CTE pulling temp table

table

Name of table

tempname

Name of temp table

insert_cols

Column names for insert

update_cols

Column names for update

key_cols

Names of columns in primary key.

upsert

Creates a temporary table named "pg_object.bulkload" and copies the data there

If the first argument is an object, then if there is a function by the name of the object, it will provide the value.

table

Table to upsert into

insert_cols

Columns to insert (by name)

update_cols

Columns to update (by name)

key_cols

Key columns (by name)

copy

Copies data into the specified table. The following arguments are used:

table

Table to upsert into

insert_cols

Columns to insert (by name)
