NAME

GenOO::Data::DB::DBIC::Species::Schema - Schema object

SYNOPSIS

    # All the database manipulation with DBIx::Class is done via one central Schema object
    # which maintains the connection to the database. This class inherits from DBIx::Class::Schema
    # and loads the tables with sequencing reads automatically.
    
    # To create a schema object, call connect on GenOO::Data::DB::DBIC::Species::Schema, passing it a Data Source Name.
    GenOO::Data::DB::DBIC::Species::Schema->connect("$connection_string");

DESCRIPTION

    -- Requesting a resultset with "sample_resultset"
    In High Troughput Sequencing analysis we usually have many db tables with similar
    structure and columns. Unfortunalely, DBIx::Class requires each Result class to specify
    the table name explicitly which means that we would have to explicitly create a Result class
    for every db table. To avoid this, upon request we dynamically create (meta-programming) a new Result class for the provided table name. The new Result class inherits the table structure from
    a base class which is also provided.
    
    One can also hard code a Result class under the namespace  GenOO::Data::DB::DBIC::Species::Schema::Result and it will also be registered under the schema.
    
    The implementation follows draegtun suggestion in
    L<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14515153/use-dbixclass-with-a-single-result-class-definition-to-handle-several-tables-w>

EXAMPLES

    my $schema = GenOO::Data::DB::DBIC::Species::Schema->connect("dbi:mysql:dbname=$database;host=$host;", $user, $pass);
    my $result_set = $schema->resultset('sample_table_name');
