Yes, it's another question about using SQL functions in an update. I know I can pass a reference to a string containing literal SQL, as in:

$row->update({ mydate => \ 'NOW()' });


However, in this case I need to pass arguments to the function, one of which needs to be quoted. Here's what I'm using right now:

my $date = DateTime->now();
my $until  = "GREATEST(paused_until, " .
             $schema->storage->dbh->quote("$dt") . ")";

$row->update({ paused_until => \$until });


Ideally, I could do something like this:

$row->update({ paused_until =>
                { GREATEST => [ \ 'paused_until', $dt ] } });


Suggestions?
