It is highly recommended that you use something like SQL::Abstract, which was inspired by this module. Or even DBIx::Class (which uses SQL::Abstract for it's query syntax). They're maintained and widely used.

DBIx::Abstract

This module provides methods for doing manipulating database tables This module provides methods retreiving and storing data in SQL databases. It provides methods for all of the more important SQL commands (like SELECT, INSERT, REPLACE, UPDATE, DELETE).

It endeavors to produce an interface that will be intuitive to those already familiar with SQL.

Notable features include:

• data_source generation for some DBD drivers.
• Can check to make sure the connection is not stale and reconnect if it is.
• Controls statement handles for you.
• Can delay writes.
• Generates complex where clauses from hashes and arrays.
• Shortcuts (convenience functions) for some common cases. (Like select_all_to_hashref.)
