💖 KiokuD...tSource — the KiokuDB::TypeMap::Entry::DBIC::ResultSource page 💖

okay bestie, this is from the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of the 3pm manuals, and it's all about KiokuDB::TypeMap::Entry::DBIC::ResultSource — a typemap entry for DBIx::Class::ResultSource objects. no cap, that's the whole vibe. 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

KiokuDB::TypeMap::Entry::DBIC::ResultSource — literally a KiokuDB::TypeMap::Entry made for DBIx::Class::ResultSource objects. that's it, that's the girl. 👑

---

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 1.23 💅

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so here's the tea, bestie. this typemap entry resolves result source handles symbolically, by name. like, it doesn't need to drag the whole actual object along — it just knows her by name. iconic behaviour, honestly. ✨

so when something holds a reference to the handle, that reference gets a special ID, and it looks exactly like this:

dbic:schema:rs:$name

and — important — those references are not actually written to storage. they're too cool for that. 💀

now when you go looking up one of those IDs, the backend gets to work and dynamically searches for such a resultset in the DBIx::Class::Schema. yes babe, it goes and finds her live, in the wild, no pre-saving required. 🧚
