Hello,

Today on polish rails community channel somone asked about extended
insert functionality in sequel, is it available. Well i must see i
don't see anything giving such functionality inside documentation but
i thnik it is pretty simple in implementation, we just need to
override for example << method od Datase? (or dataset for each
adapter)

This is example of uch functionality.

  require 'rubygems'
  require 'sequel'

  DB = Sequel.sqlite # memory database

  DB.create_table :items do # Create a new table
    primary_key :id
    column :name, :text
    column :price, :float
  end

  items = DB[:items] # Create a dataset

  items << [{:name => 'abc', :price => rand * 100}, {:name =>
'def', :price => rand * 100}, {:name => 'ghi', :price => rand * 100}]

This will produce sql:
"INSERT items (name, price) VALUES (('abc', 123), ('def', 123), ('ghi',
123))"

And i think is obvious for everybody that such sql query will be much
faster than regullary 3 single queries for every row.

I seems that << only refers to insert_sql so we don't need to care
about any callbacks or typecast of defined schema ?

I'm wondering what do you thnik about that Jeremy ?
