[Ledger-smb-devel] PGObject framework todo's to be ready for use in 1.5
Hi;
I will be releasing PGObject::Simple 1.5 shortly which will support a
contextual return, so if you $ref = $object-call_dbmethod(...) it will
return the of the result set. This will then be supported in
PGObject::Simple::Role.
At this point, for a stable framework there I only have one other todo
item, namely to modify PGObject::Simple::Role so that it handles lazy
attributes properly. Handling lazy attributes (i.e. attributes which are
first set when they are requested) is something that the current 1.4
framework doesn't do so well. This would eliminate one significant
headache.
The other thing I want to do is remove the dbmethod() syntax entirely from
PGObject::Simple::Role. This has been moved into PGObject;:Util::DBMethod,
which has a significant number of advantages. Classes can simply use this
class and then be able to:
dbmethod save = (funcname = 'save');
instead of a more cumbersome
sub save {
my ($self) = @_;
return $self-call_dbmethod(funcname = 'save');
}
Or for more features:
dbmethod save_as_new (funcname = 'save', strict_args = 1, args = {id =
undef});
Once these are done, I will release PGObject::Simple::Role 1.0 I think the
API we are looking at can be reasonably guaranteed for the foreseeable
future.
There are a bunch more things this framework supports including:
1. multi-schema
2. function name prefixes
3. Overriding named arguments
4. Running aggregates over return values from the functions.
5. Registered types which grab columns of specific types and convert to
Perl objects of named types.
6. Everything our current DBObject framework supports
7. Classes, if needed (for integration purposes) can override the default
database connection.
All with a lot less boilerplate and a lot less cruft. The syntax is mostly
compatible with what we have now, so I don't expect to spend more than a
day or two moving code over after we branch.
I am actually extremely happy with my forays into it currently. It isn't a
major paradigm shift, but it smooths out a lot of rough corners.

What is the rationale for: * Reports all default to detail instead of summary (Erik H) ... I noticed this change on our production instance, and I'm actually finding it a bit annoying, most of the time I would prefer a summary by default, at least on the open invoice reports, which we run 10 times as much as all the rest of them...

Re: [Ledger-smb-devel] 1.3.38-rc1 on Monday?
Hi, Eric, Oh, interesting. I think you and I are after exactly the same thing, but we're starting with a different report. I use AR - Reports - Transactions (summary). I'm guessing you use AR - Reports - Outstanding (detail). A summary report on the first is almost exactly the same as a details report on the second. Almost, but not quite... So yes, I see AR - Reports - Outstanding - summary as not something I need all the time -- and if it's misleading, that should get fixed. AR - Reports - Transactions - detail has too much detail -- it expands all of the line items on invoices, so it's now much longer. I'm seeing one difference between the two: Transactions is showing transactions that are out of balance by a fraction of a cent (the old invoices with calculated sales tax) while Outstanding omits them. Otherwise we often are using Transactions to get a customer invoice history, by selecting the closed checkbox. For that reason alone, I would like to preserve the summary default there, though I can have people switch to the Outstanding report for the more typical use... I wonder if it might make sense to actually split these into 3 reports? Seems like it would be confusing to have two reports lead to pretty much the same thing -- both with summary and detail options that do different things. What we have here are four different reports with two that are the same. How about splitting into something like: - Invoices/Transactions (with options for open and closed, the report both you and I use) - Customer outstanding totals (outstanding summary, hopefully fixed to only include open transactions) - Items (Transaction detail report) Not sure the second one is necessary, with the aging report also available...
