NAME

DBIx::Custom::Mapper - Mapper of parameter

SYNOPSYS

my $mapper = $dbi->mapper(param => $param);
my $new_param = $mapper->map(
  title => 'book.title', # Key
  author => sub { '%' . $_[0] . '%'} # Value
  price => ['book.price' => sub { '%' . $_[0] . '%' }], # Key and value
);

ATTRIBUTES

param

my $param = $mapper->param;
$mapper = $mapper->param({title => 'Perl', author => 'Ken'});

Parameter.

pass

my $pass = $mapper->pass;
$mapper = $mapper->pass([qw/title author/]);

the key and value is copied without change when map method is executed.

condition

my $condition = $mapper->condition;
$mapper = $mapper->condition('exists');

Mapping condtion, default to length.

You can set the following values to condition.

  • exists

    condition => 'exists'

    If key exists, key and value is mapped.

  • defined

    condition => 'defined';

    If value is defined, key and value is mapped.

  • length

    condition => 'length';

    If value is defined and has length, key and value is mapped.

  • code reference

    condition => sub { defined $_[0] }

    You can set code reference to condtion. The subroutine return true, key and value is mapped.

METHODS

DBIx::Custom::Mapper inherits all methods from Object::Simple and implements the following new ones.

map

my $new_param = $mapper->map(
  price => {key => 'book.price'}
  title => {value => '%<value>%'}
  author => ['book.author' => '%<value>%']
);

my $new_param = $mapper->map(
  price => {key => 'book.price'}
  title => {value => sub { '%' . shift . '%'}}
  author => ['book.author' => sub { '%' . shift . '%'}]
);

Map parameter in param attribute into new parameter.

For example, if param is set to

{
  price => 1900,
  title => 'Perl',
  author => 'Ken',
  issue_date => '2010-11-11'
}

The following hash reference is returned.

{
  'book.price' => 1900,
  title => '%Perl%',
  'book.author' => '%Ken%',
}

    Syntax:

    * String => Hash reference

    # String => Hash reference
    price => {key => 'book.price'}
    title => {value => '%<value>%'}
    title => {value => sub { '%' . shift . '%'}}

    If key is used, only key name is mapped to new parameter

    # Rule
    price => {key => 'book.price'}
    # Parameter
    price => 1900,
    # New parameter
    'book.price' => 1900,

    If value is used, only value is mapped to new parameter

    # Rule
    title => {value => '%<value>%'}
    title => {value => sub { '%' . shift . '%'}}
    
    # Parameter
    title => 'Perl',
    # New parameter
    title => '%Perl%',

    <value>> is replaced by original value. You can use code reference to convert original value.

    * String => Array reference

    # String => Array reference
    author => ['book.author' => '%<value>%']

    Both key name and value is mapped to new parameter. This is same as the following syntax.

    # Rule
    {key => 'book.author', value => '%<value>%'}

By default, If the value has length, key and value is mapped.

title => 'Perl'  # Mapped
{title => '' }   # Not mapped
{title => undef} # Not mapped
{}               # Not mapped

You can set change mapping condition by condition attribute.

$mapper->condition('defined');

Or you can set condition option for each key.

my $new_param = $mapper->map(
  price => {key => 'book.price', condition => 'defined'}]
  title => {value => sub { '%' . $_[0] . '%'}, condition => 'defined'}
  author => ['book.author', sub { '%' . $_[0] . '%'}, 'exists']
);

If pass attribute is set, the keys and value is copied without change.

$mapper->pass([qw/title author/]);
my $new_param = $mapper->map(price => {key => 'book.price'});

The following hash reference

{title => 'Perl', author => 'Ken', price => 1900}

is mapped to

{title => 'Perl', author => 'Ken', 'book.price' => 1900}
