Hi,

I am seriously considering writing a system to create
DBIx Classes via a configuration file.  Since the
default for creating these classes are primarily
package method calls I think this could be pretty
easy.

So we could replace:

package myapp::Schema::foo

__PACKAGE__->load_components( ... );
__PACKAGE__table('foo');

(rest of your setup)

With (something like in evil YAML)

Schema:
 foo:
   table: foo
   load_components:
     - comp1
     - comp2



If you didnt insist on your own formatting, you can do this fairly trivially already, since SQL::Translator reads/has YAML, XML and various other formats.. And someone was writing a backend for ::Schema::Loader which would use SQL::Translator.. (hmm, who was that?)
