DBIx::...eSource(3pm)

💖 DBIx::Class::Helper::Schema::GenerateSource 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, filed under DBIx::...eSource(3pm) — don't ask about the truncated filename, the terminal did that, not me 💅

NAME

DBIx::Class::Helper::Schema::GenerateSource — Generate sources directly from your Schema ✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

package MyApp::Schema;

__PACKAGE__->load_components('Helper::Schema::GenerateSource');

__PACKAGE__->generate_source(User => 'MyCompany::BaseResult::User');

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the whole vibe of this helper is: it lets you handily and correctly add new result sources to your schema, based on existing result sources. no cap. 🫶

Typically you'd do that by hand, with something like this:

package MyApp::Schema::Result::MessegeQueue;

use parent 'MyCo::Schema::Result::MessageQueue';

__PACKAGE__->table(__PACKAGE__->table);

1;

which, as you can see, is literally in its own file. and that's still the move when you need to add columns or actually do anything other than just the basic addition of the result source to your schema. like, don't skip the file for real work, iykyk.

Note: this component correctly generates an "anonymous" subclass of the given base class. Do not depend on the name of the subclass — it's currently considered unstable. so don't be out here hardcoding it, bestie, it will betray you 😭

👑 METHODS 👑

⭐ generate_source ⭐

$schema->generate_source(User => 'MyCompany::BaseResult::User')

The first argument to generate_source is the "moniker" — that's the name you're registering the class as. The second argument is the base class for the new result source. two args, that's it, we love a simple API 💖
