NAME

DBIx::Class::SQLMaker::Role::SQLA2Passthrough - A test of future possibilities

SYNOPSIS

• select and group_by options are processed using the richer SQLA2 code

• expand_join_condition is provided to more easily express rich joins

See examples/sqla2passthrough.pl for a small amount of running code.

SETUP

  (on_connect_call => sub {
     my ($storage) = @_;
     $storage->sql_maker
             ->with::roles('DBIx::Class::SQLMaker::Role::SQLA2Passthrough');
  })

expand_join_condition

  __PACKAGE__->has_many(minions => 'Blah::Person' => sub {
    my ($args) = @_;
    $args->{self_resultsource}
         ->schema->storage->sql_maker
         ->expand_join_condition(
             $args
           );
  });

on

  __PACKAGE__->has_many(minions => 'Blah::Person' => on {
    { 'self.group_id' => 'foreign.group_id',
      'self.rank' => { '>', 'foreign.rank' } }
  });

Or with ParameterizedJoinHack,

  __PACKAGE__->parameterized_has_many(
      priority_tasks => 'MySchema::Result::Task',
      [['min_priority'] => sub {
          my $args = shift;
          return +{
              "$args->{foreign_alias}.owner_id" => {
                  -ident => "$args->{self_alias}.id",
              },
              "$args->{foreign_alias}.priority" => {
                  '>=' => $_{min_priority},
              },
          };
      }],
  );

becomes

  __PACKAGE__->parameterized_has_many(
      priority_tasks => 'MySchema::Result::Task',
      [['min_priority'] => on {
        { 'foreign.owner_id' => 'self.id',
          'foreign.priority' => { '>=', { -value => $_{min_priority} } } }
      }]
  );
