NAME

DBIx::FunctionalAPI - Some functions to expose your database as an API

VERSION

This document describes version 0.07 of DBIx::FunctionalAPI (from Perl distribution DBIx-FunctionalAPI), released on 2015-08-17.

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

NOTE: EARLY RELEASE AND MINIMAL FUNCTIONALITIES

This module provides a set of functions to get information and modify your DBI database. The functions are suitable in RPC-style or stateless client/server (like HTTP) API.

Every function accepts dbh argument, but for convenience database handle can also be set via the $dbh package variable.

FUNCTIONS

list_columns(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • dbh => obj

    {en_US Database handle}.

  • detail => bool

    {en_US Whether to return detailed records instead of just items/strings}.

  • table* => str

    {en_US Table name}.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (any)
