✨ DBIx::Class::Helper::Row::SelfResultSet ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the User Contributed Perl Documentation for DBIx::Class::Helper::Row::SelfResultSet 💖 this lil cutie is all about letting you use ResultSet methods on the row you already have, no cap.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

DBIx::Class::Helper::Row::SelfResultSet — easily use ResultSet methods for the current row. literally that's the whole vibe 🫶

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

In your result class, you're gonna do this:

__PACKAGE__->load_components('Helper::Row::SelfResultSet');

And then elsewhere (iykyk):

$row->self_rs->$some_rs_method->single

slay. that's it. that's the whole thing 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, sometimes you need a ResultSet that contains literally just the current row. not a big deal, but here's why it's iconic: maybe you've got a ResultSet method that sprinkles in some calculated data — like counts of a relationship or whatever. with this you can get at that counted data without duplicating the counting logic. obsessed. no copy-paste, no drama. 💖

but — and listen, this is the important part — because of the primitives that DBIx::Class::PK hands us, this references the current values, aka, in DBIx::Class terms, the dirty values. which means… if you go and modify the primary columns, it'll be temporarily incorrect 😭

and for what it's worth, the author is not married to this behavior, and would honestly rather you get in touch with him before you depend on it. fr fr, don't build your whole house on this without a lil chat first 🙈

💅 METHODS 💅

self_rs

$row->self_rs

returns a ResultSet containing just the current row. that's the tea ☕ one row, one ResultSet, main character energy 👑
