NAME DBIx::NoSQL - Experimental NoSQL-ish overlay for an SQL database VERSION version 0.0010 SYNOPSIS use DBIx::NoSQL; my $store = DBIx::NoSQL->new; $store->connect( 'store.sqlite' ); $store->set( 'Artist' => 'Smashing Pumpkins' => { name => 'Smashing Pumpkins', genre => 'rock', website => 'smashingpumpkins.com', } ); $store->set( 'Artist' => 'Tool' => { name => 'Tool', genre => 'rock', } ); $store->search( 'Artist' )->count; # 2 my $artist = $store->get( 'Artist' => 'Smashing Pumpkins' ); # Set up a (searchable) index on the name field $store->model( 'Artist' )->field( 'name' => ( index => 1 ) ); $store->model( 'Artist' )->reindex; for $artist ( $store->search( 'Artist' )->order_by( 'name DESC' )->all ) { ... } $store->model( 'Album' )->field( 'released' => ( index => 1, isa => 'DateTime' ) ); $store->set( 'Album' => 'Siamese Dream' => { artist => 'Smashing Pumpkins', released => DateTime->new( ... ), } ); my $album = $store->get( 'Album' => 'Siamese Dream' ); my $released = $album->{ released }; # The field is automatically inflated print $release->strftime( ... ); DESCRIPTION DBIx::NoSQL is a layer over DBI that presents a NoSQLish way to store and retrieve data. You do not need to prepare a schema beforehand to start putting data into your store Currently, it works by using JSON for serialization and SQLite as the database (though additional database support should not difficult to implement) The API is fairly sane, though still an early "alpha." At the moment, a better name for this package might be "DBIx::NoSQLite" USAGE $store = DBIx::NoSQL->new Returns a new DBIx::NoSQL store $store->connect( $path ) Connect to (creating if necessary) the SQLite database located at $path $store->set( $model, $key, $value ) Set $key (a string) to $value (a HASH reference) in $model $value = $store->get( $model, $key ) Get $value matching $key in $model ...
