NAME

Arango::Tango::Database - ArangoDB Database object

VERSION

version 0.019

USAGE

This class should not be created directly. The Arango::Tango module is responsible for creating instances of this object.

Arango::Tango::Database answers to the following methods:

collection

    my $collection = $database->collection("some_collection");

Opens an existing collection, and returns a reference to a Arango::Tango::Collection representing it.

clear_access_level

    $db->clear_access_level($user)
    $db->clear_access_level($user, $collection)

Clears the database or collection access level for a specific user.

create_collection

   my $col = $database->create_collection("col_name");

Creates a new collection and returns the object representing it (Arango::Tango::Collection).

create_ttl_index

   $idx = $db->create_ttl_index("col_name", %args);

Creates a new index of type ttl for the given collection. The mandatory args are type (must be ttl), name (string, human name for the index), fields (array ref with the names of the document fields to be used as expiration timestamps) and expireAfter (integer, seconds). Returns an object containing the id of the created index and the confirmation of the provided arguments (type, name, fields and expireAfter). If an error occurs the error field will be true, otherwise false.

cursor

   my $cursor = $database->cursor( $aql_query, %opt );

list_collections

   my $cols = $database->list_collections;
