DBIx::Class::Helper::Schema::Verifier::RelationshipColumnName β€” the lil guardian angel that makes sure your relationships and your column names are not twinning. ✨


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

package MyApp::Schema;

__PACKAGE__->load_components('Helper::Schema::Verifier::RelationshipColumnName');

that's it bestie, one line of load_components and you're protected 🫢


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so DBIx::Class::Helper::Schema::Verifier::RelationshipColumnName</p> is out here doing a vibe check on your schema: it verifies that none of your columns have the same name as a relationship. periodt.

why do we care?? because if you create a relationship that has the same name as a column, then to actually get at that column you're gonna be forced to use get_column. 😭 and honestly? it's just confusing having them be the same name. it's giving chaos. it's giving "which one did i mean".

what i (the author) tend to do is define the columns to be something like user_id and have the relationship then be simply user. clean, distinct, iconic. πŸ‘‘

so like β€” columns over here, relationships over there, no overlap, no drama. πŸ’…
