NAME

OData::QueryParams::DBIC - parse OData style query params and provide info for DBIC queries.

VERSION

version 0.09

SYNOPSIS

use OData::QueryParams::DBIC;

my $query_string  = 'orderby=username asc, userid';
my ($where,$opts) = params_to_dbic( $query_string );

# $where = {}
# $opts  = { order_by => [ {-asc => 'username'}, {-asc => 'userid'} ] }
# can be used in
# $schema->resultset('users')->search( $where, $opts );

DESCRIPTION

The OData protocol defines the behaviour of Query String Options. This module aims to help you when you want to use the OData query string options with an application that uses DBIx::Class.

It parses the query parameters and creates a hash of DBIx::Class options that can be used in the search method.

EXPORTED FUNCTION

params_to_dbic

This function returns a hash reference of options that can be used as options for the search method in DBIx::Class.

use OData::QueryParams::DBIC;

my $query_string  = 'orderby=username asc, userid';
my ($where,$opts) = params_to_dbic( $query_string );

More examples:

my $query_string  = 'filter=Price eq 5&orderby=username asc, userid';
my ($where,$opts) = params_to_dbic( $query_string );

# $where = { Price => 5 }
# $opts  = { order_by => [ {-asc => 'username'}, {-asc => 'userid'} ] }

my $query_string  = 'select=Price&orderby=username asc, userid';
my ($where,$opts) = params_to_dbic( $query_string );

# $where = {}
# $opts  = { columns => ['Price'], order_by => [ {-asc => 'username'}, {-asc => 'userid'} ] }

my $query_string  = 'orderby=username asc, userid';
my ($where,$opts) = params_to_dbic( $query_string );

# $where = {}
# $opts  = { order_by => [ {-asc => 'username'}, {-asc => 'userid'} ] }

SUPPORTED QUERY PARAMS

filter

This lists the top number of entries.

my $query_string   = 'filter=Price le 100';
my ($where, $opts) = paras_to_dbic( $query_string );

# $where = { Price => { '<=' => 100 } }

Currently only simple filters are supported:

"filter=Price le 3.5 or Price gt 200"
    => { -or => [ { Price => { '<=' => 3.5 } }, { Price => { '>' => 200 } } ] } },

"filter=Price le 200 and Price gt 3.5"
    => { -and => [ { Price => { '<=' => 200 } }, { Price => { '>' => 3.5 } } ] },

"filter=Price le 100"
    => { Price => { '<=' => 100 } },

"filter=Price lt 20"
    => { Price => { '<' => 20 } },

"filter=Price ge 10"
    => { Price => { '>=' => 10 } },

"filter=Price gt 20"
    => { Price => { '>' => 20 } },

"filter=Address/City ne 'London'"
    => { 'Address.City' => { '!=' => 'London' } },

"filter=Address/City eq 'Redmond'"
    => { 'Address.City' => 'Redmond' },

orderby

This orders the list of entries by the given column.

A simple query string:

my $query_string = 'orderby=username';
my $opts = paras_to_dbic( $query_string );

# $opts = { order_by => [ {-asc => 'username'} ] };

A more complex one:

my $query_string = 'orderby=username asc, userid asc';
my $opts = paras_to_dbic( $query_string );

# $opts = { order_by => [ {-asc => 'username'}, {-asc => 'userid'} ] };

skip

In combination with top, this can be used for pagination.

my $query_string = 'skip=5';
my $opts = paras_to_dbic( $query_string );

# $opts = { page => 5 }

top

This lists the top number of entries.

my $query_string = 'top=5';
my $opts = paras_to_dbic( $query_string );

# $opts = { rows => 5 }
