🌸 NAME 🌸

DBIx::Class::Migration::Population — a utility to populate fixture data. periodt 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

         use DBIx::Class::Migration::Population;
         use MyApp::Schema;

         $schema = MyApp::Schema->connect(...);
         (my $population = DBIx::Class::Migration::Population->new(
           schema=>$schema))->populate('all_tables');

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Sometimes you just need to populate data for your scripts — like during testing — and you don’t want to expose a full migrations interface and let someone accidently wipe your database with one command. that’s literally the whole vibe this utility is designed to assist with, no cap 💖

It’s basically a thin wrapper on DBIx::Class::Fixtures that is just aware of DBIx::Class::Migration conventions. iconic behavior honestly ✨

You create an instance of this similarly to DBIx::Class::Migration, except you can’t pass any arguments related to DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler since you don’t have one :). You can create it from an existing schema, or build it from a schema_class and schema_args, and optionally set a target directory (or just let it use the default distribution share directory). Afterwards we expose a populate method that takes a list of fixture set names 🫶

no cap, you don’t have any control over which version we are trying to populate — we always use the declared schema Version. We assume you have an existing deployed database that matches the current schema 👑
