Hi,
I've cleaned up and uploaded to CPAN a small module that I use a lot in my code.
I got tired of writting
$schema->resultset('Source')->....
all the time, and I wrote DBICx::Shortcuts.
You create a new class (I usually give it a very small name, like
MyApp::S, tweak MyApp to taste), as a subclass of DBICx::Shortcuts and
link it to a Schema class with a setup('MyApp::Schema') call.
For each source, it creates a shortcut method in your class. So I can write:
MyApp::S->source->...
As a bonus, you can also call
MyApp::S->source($id)
as a shortcut to
$schema->resultset('Source')->find($id)
All other calls to the source() shortcut with parameters will end up
as calls to search().
Comments, suggestions?
Bye,
--
