hi all -- i have a couple questions about using DBIC::Schema->deploy
and views:
first, i'be been defining views in the schema just like i would any
other table then adding a $sqlt_schema->drop_table("view name") to the
sqlt_deploy_hook(). is this ok or is there a best practice here that
i'm ignoring?
No, that's fine. In the next release however, you will be able to properly
teach DBIx::Class about your views, it will also be able to create the
view in your database for you.
second, if i define a relationship between a real table and a view a
foreign key constraint is created when i run deploy(). this isn't
unexpected but it is problematic. i'm sure there's mention in the
documentation about how to supress the generation of constraints but i
don't seem to be able to find it. can someone point me in the right
direction?
Looks like you want "is_foreign_key_constraint => 0" in your relationship
attributes, see DBIx::Class::Relationship::Base.
