=head1 VERSION

    v1.4.0

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This package inherits from L<DB::Object>, so any method not mentioned here, but listed there, you can use.

L<DB::Object> is a SQL API much alike C<DBI>.
So why use a private module instead of using that great C<DBI> package?

At first, I started to inherit from C<DBI> to conform to C<perlmod> perl manual page and to general perl coding guidlines. It became very quickly a real hassle. Barely impossible to inherit, difficulty to handle error, too much dependent from an API that change its behaviour with new versions.
In short, I wanted a better, more accurate control over the SQL connection.

So, L<DB::Object> acts as a convenient, modifiable wrapper that provide the programmer with an intuitive, user-friendly and hassle free interface.

=head1 CONSTRUCTOR

=head2 new

Create a new instance of L<DB::Object>. Nothing much to say.

=head2 connect

Create a new instance of L<DB::Object>, but also attempts a connection to SQL server.

You can specify the following arguments:

=over 4

=item * C<database>

The database name you wish to connect to

=item * C<login>

The login used to access that database

=item * C<password>

The password that goes along

=item * C<server>

The server, that is hostname of the machine serving a SQL server.

=item * C<driver>

The driver you want to use. It needs to be of the same type than the server you want to connect to. If you are connecting to a MySQL server, you would use C<mysql>, if you would connecto to an Oracle server, you would use C<oracle>.

You need to make sure that those driver are properly installed in the system before attempting to connect.

To install the required driver, you could start with the command line:

    perl -MCPAN -e shell

which will provide you a special shell to install modules in a convenient way.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 alias

Get/set alias for table fields in SELECT queries. The hash provided thus contain a list of field => alias pairs.

=head2 as_string

Return the sql query as a string.

=head2 avoid

Set the provided list of table fields to avoid when returning the query result.
The list of fields can be provided either as an array of a reference to an array.

=head2 attribute

Sets or get the value of database connection parameters.

If only one argument is provided, returns its value.
If multiple arguments in a form of pair => value are provided, it sets the corresponding database parameters.

The authorised parameters are:

=over 4

=item * C<Warn>

Can be overridden.

=item * C<Active>

Read-only.

=item * C<Kids>

Read-only.

=item * C<ActiveKids>

Read-only.

=item * C<CachedKids>

Read-only.

=item * C<InactiveDestroy>

Can be overridden.

=item * C<PrintError>

Can be overridden.

=item * C<RaiseError>

Can be overridden.

=item * C<ChopBlanks>

Can be overridden.

=item * C<LongReadLen>

Can be overridden.

=item * C<LongTruncOk>

Can be overridden.

=item * C<AutoCommit>

Can be overridden.

=item * C<Name>

=item * C<Statement>

Read-only.

=item * C<RowsInCache>

Read-only.

=back

=head2 available_drivers

Return the list of available drivers.

=head2 begin_work

Mark the beginning of a transaction.

Any arguments provided are passed along to L<DBD::mysql/begin_work>

=head2 bind

If no values to bind to the underlying query is provided, L<DB::Object/bind> simply activate the bind value feature.

If values are provided, they are allocated to the statement object and will be applied when the query will be executed.

Example:

    $dbh->bind()
    # or
    $dbh->bind->where( "something" )
    # or
    $dbh->bind->select->fetchrow_hashref()
    # and then later
    $dbh->bind( 'thingy' )->select->fetchrow_hashref()

=head2 cache

Activate caching.

    $tbl->cache->select->fetchrow_hashref();

=head2 check_driver

Check that the driver set in I<$SQL_DRIVER> in ~/etc/common.cfg is indeed available.

It does this by calling L<DB::Object/available_drivers>.

=head2 commit

Make any change to the database irreversible.

This must be used only after having called L</begin_work>

Any arguments provided are passed along to L<DBD::mysql/commit>

=head2 copy

Provided with either a reference to an hash or an hash of key => value pairs, L<DB::Object/copy> will first execute a select statement on the table object, then fetch the row of data, then replace the key-value pair in the result by the ones provided, and finally will perform an insert.

Return false if no data to copy were provided, otherwise it always returns true.

=head2 create_db

Provided with a database name and some optional parameters and this will prepare and execute the query to create the database.

Upon failure, this will return an error, and upon success, this will connect to the newly created database and return the database handler.

Possible options are:

=over 4

=item * C<charset>

The character encoding.

=item * C<collate>

Sets the C<COLLATE> attribute

=item * C<if_not_exists>

Add the condition C<IF NOT EXISTS>

=back

See L<MySQL documentation for more information|https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/creating-database.html>

=head2 create_table

The idea is to create a table with the givern parameters.

=head2 databases

Returns a list of all available databases.

=head2 data_sources

Given an optional list of options, this return the data source of the database handler.

=head2 datatype_dict

Returns an hash reference of each data type with their equivalent C<constant>, regular expression (C<re>), constant C<name> and C<type> name.

Each data type is an hash with the following properties for each type: C<constant>, C<name>, C<re>, C<type>


=head2 data_type

Given a reference to an array or an array of data type, L<DB::Object/data_type> will check their availability in the database driver.

If nothing found, it return an empty list in list context, or undef in scalar context.

If something was found, it returns a hash in list context or a reference to a hash in list context.

=head2 database

Return the name of the current database.

=head2 delete

L<DB::Object/delete> will format a delete query based on previously set parameters, such as L<DB::Object/where>.

L<DB::Object/delete> will refuse to execute a query without a where condition. To achieve this, one must prepare the delete query on his/her own by using the L<DB::Object/do> method and passing the sql query directly.

    $tbl->where( "login" => "jack" );
    $tbl->limit( 1 );
    my $rows_affected = $tbl->delete();
    # or passing the where condition directly to delete
    my( $sth ) = $tbl->delete( "login" => "jack" );

=head2 disconnect

Disconnect from database. Returns the return code.

    my $rc = $dbh->disconnect;

=head2 do

Execute a sql query directly passed with possible attributes and values to bind.

The attributes list will be used to L<DB::Object/prepare> the query and the bind values will be used when executing the query.

It returns the statement handler or the number of rows affected.

Example:

    $rc  = $dbh->do( $statement ) || die( $dbh->errstr );
    $rc  = $dbh->do( $statement, \%attr ) || die( $dbh->errstr );
    $rv  = $dbh->do( $statement, \%attr, @bind_values ) || die( $dbh->errstr );
    my( $rows_deleted ) = $dbh->do(
    q{
       DELETE FROM table WHERE status = ?
    }, undef(), 'DONE' ) || die( $dbh->errstr );

=head2 enhance

Toggle the enhance mode on/off.

When on, the functions I<from_unixtime> and I<unix_timestamp> will be used on date/time field to translate from and to unix time seamlessly.

=head2 from_unixtime

Set the list of fields that are to be treated as unix time and converted accordingly after the sql query is executed.

It returns the list of fields in list context or a reference to an array in scalar context.

=head2 format_statement

Format the sql statement.

In list context, it returns 2 strings: one comma-separated list of fields and one comma-separated list of values. In scalar context, it only returns a comma-separated string of fields.

=head2 format_update

Formats update query based on the following arguments provided:

=over 4

=item * C<data>

An array of key-value pairs to be used in the update query. This array can be provided as the prime argument as a reference to an array, an array, or as the I<data> element of a hash or a reference to a hash provided.

Why an array if eventually we build a list of key-value pair? Because the order of the fields may be important, and if the key-value pair list is provided, L<DB::Object/format_update> honors the order in which the fields are provided.

=back

L</format_update> will then iterate through each field-value pair, and perform some work:

If the field being reviewed was provided to L<DB::Object/from_unixtime>, then L</format_update> will enclose it in the function FROM_UNIXTIME() as in:

    FROM_UNIXTIME(field_name)

If the the given value is a reference to a scalar, it will be used as-is, ie. it will not be enclosed in quotes or anything. This is useful if you want to control which function to use around that field.

If the given value is another field or looks like a function having parenthesis, or if the value is a question mark, the value will be used as-is.

If L<DB::Object/bind> is off, the value will be escaped and the pair field='value' created.

If the field is a SET data type and the value is a number, the value will be used as-is without surrounding single quote.

If L<DB::Object/bind> is enabled, a question mark will be used as the value and the original value will be saved as value to bind upon executing the query.

Finally, otherwise the value is escaped and surrounded by single quotes.

L<DB::Object/format_update> returns a string representing the comma-separated list of fields that will be used.

=head2 get_sql_type

Provided with a SQL type, irrespective of the character case, and this will return the equivalent constant value.

Values are taken from C<DBI::SQL_*>

=head2 getdefault

Does some preparation work such as:

=over 4

=item 1

the date/time field to use the FROM_UNIXTIME and UNIX_TIMESTAMP functions

=item 2

removing from the query the fields to avoid, ie the ones set with the L<DB::Object/avoid> method.

=item 3

set the fields alias based on the information provided with the L<DB::Object/alias> method.

=item 4

if a field last_name and first_name exist, it will also create an alias I<name> based on the concatenation of the 2.

=item 5

it will set the default values provided. This is used for UPDATE queries.

=back

It returns a new L<DB::Object::Tables> object with all the data prepared within.

=head2 group

Format the group by portion of the query.

It returns an empty list in list context of undef in scalar context if no group by clause was build.
Otherwise, it returns the value of the group by clause as a string in list context and the full group by clause in scalar context.

In list context, it returns: $group_by

In scalar context, it returns: GROUP BY $group_by

=head2 having

A convenient wrapper to L<DB::Object::Mysql::Query/having>

=head2 insert

Prepares an INSERT query using the field-value pairs provided.

If a L<DB::Object::Statement> object is provided as first argument, it will considered as a SELECT query to be used in the INSERT query, as in: INSERT INTO my table SELECT FROM another_table

Otherwise, L<DB::Object/insert> will build the query based on the fields provided.

In scalar context, it returns the result of L<DB::Object/execute> and in list context, it returns the statement object.

=head2 last_insert_id

Get the id of the primary key from the last insert.

=head2 limit

Set or get the limit for the future statement.

If only one argument is provided, it is assumed to be the end limit. If 2 are provided, they wil be the start and end.

It returns a list of the start and end limit in list context, and the string of the LIMIT in scalar context, such as: LIMIT 1, 10

=head2 local

Not sure what it does. I forgot.

=head2 lock

Set a lock using a lock identifier and a timeout.
By default the timeout is 2 seconds.

If the lock failed (NULL), it returns undef(), otherwise, it returns the return value.

=head2 no_bind

When invoked, L<DB::Object/no_bind> will change any preparation made so far for caching the query with bind parameters, and instead substitute the value in lieu of the question mark placeholder.

=head2 no_cache

Disable caching of queries.

=head2 order

Prepares the ORDER BY clause and returns the value of the clause in list context or the ORDER BY clause in full in scalar context, ie. "ORDER BY $clause"

=head2 param

If only a single parameter is provided, its value is return. If a list of parameters is provided they are set accordingly using the C<SET> sql command.

Supported parameters are:

=over 4

=item SQL_AUTO_IS_NULL

=head2 query

It prepares and executes the given SQL query with the options provided and return undef() upon error or the statement handler upon success.

=head2 query_object

=head2 replace

Just like for the INSERT query, L<DB::Object::Mysql::Tables/replace> takes one optional argument representing a L<DB::Object::Statement> SELECT object or a list of field-value pairs.

If a SELECT statement is provided, it will be used to construct a query of the type of REPLACE INTO mytable SELECT FROM other_table

Otherwise the query will be REPLACE INTO mytable (fields) VALUES(values)

In scalar context, it execute the query and in list context it simply returns the statement handler.

=head2 reset
