        index  => 'stuff',
    });
    
    __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
        foo_id => {
            data_type         => 'integer',
            is_auto_increment => 1,
        },
        name => {
            data_type => 'varchar',
            size      => 256,

        },
        description => {

ACCESSORS

indexer_package( [ $indexer ] )

Sets which indexer will be responsible for indexing this class' data. Corresponds to the package name after the DBIx::Class::Indexer prefix.

indexer_connection_info( [ \%info ] )

Sets the extra information passed to the indexer on instantiation.

index_on_insert

Determines whether or not DBIx::Class::Indexed will index the document when it is inserted.

index_on_update

Determines whether or not DBIx::Class::Indexed will index the document when it is updated.

index_on_delete

Determines whether or not DBIx::Class::Indexed will remove the document when it is deleted.

METHODS

indexer( )

Accessor for the indexer object; lazy loaded.

set_indexer( $name [, \%connection_info ] )

Set the indexer information. Connection information is stored in the indexer_connection_info accessor and the package name is stored in indexer_package.

insert( )

Sends the object to the indexer's insert method, if index_on_insert is true.

update( )

Sends the object to the indexer's update method, if index_on_update is true.

delete( )

Sends the object to the indexer's delete method, if index_on_delete is true.

register_column ( $column, \%info )

Overrides DBIx::Class's register_column. If %info contains the key 'indexed', calls register_field.

add_index_fields ( @fields )

Behaves similarly to DBIx::Class's add_columns. Calls register_field underneath.

register_field( $field, \%info )

Registers a field as indexed.
