NAME

Apache2::Controller::SQL::MySQL - useful database methods for MySQL

VERSION

Version 1.001.001

SYNOPSIS

package UFP::SFC::Controller::Tools;
use base qw( 
    Apache2::Controller 
    Apache2::Controller::SQL::MySQL
);
# ...

DESCRIPTION

Provides some useful methods for interacting with a MySQL database.

This isn't really standard or a necessary part of A2C, I just find it handy.

DEPRECATED

Don't depend on this. I intend to remove it in a future release because it is not relevant.

METHODS

insert_hash

insert_hash( \%hashref )

Insert data into the database.

# http://sfc.ufp/tools/register_crew/enterprise?captain=kirk&sci=spock&med=mccoy
sub register_crew {
    my ($self, $ship) = @_; 
    my $crew = $self->param();
    $self->insert_hash({
        table    => "crew_$ship",
        data     => $crew,
    });
    $self->print("Warp factor 5, engage.\n");
    return Apache2::Const::HTTP_OK;
}

Requires a database handle be assigned to $self->{dbh}. See Apache2::Controller::DBI::Connector.

Hashref argument supports these fields:

table

The SQL table to insert into.

data

The hash ref of field data to insert.

on_dup_sql

Optional string of SQL for after 'ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE'. Format it yourself.

on_dup_bind

Array ref of bind values for extra ? characters in on_dup_sql.
