NAME

DBIO::InflateColumn::Serializer::YAML - YAML Inflator

VERSION

version 0.900000

SYNOPSIS

package MySchema::Table;
use base 'DBIO::Core';

__PACKAGE__->load_components('InflateColumn::Serializer');
__PACKAGE__->add_columns(
  'data_column' => {
    'data_type' => 'VARCHAR',
    'size'      => 255,
    'serializer_class'   => 'YAML'
  }
);

Then in your code...

my $struct = { 'I' => { 'am' => 'a struct' } };
$obj->data_column($struct);
$obj->update;

And you can recover your data structure with:

my $obj = ...->find(...);
my $struct = $obj->data_column;

The data structures you assign to data_column are saved in YAML format.

DESCRIPTION

YAML backend for DBIO::InflateColumn::Serializer. Loaded automatically when a column declares serializer_class => 'YAML'.

METHODS

Called by DBIO::InflateColumn::Serializer to get the routine that serializes the data passed to it. Returns a coderef.

get_unfreezer

Called by DBIO::InflateColumn::Serializer to get the routine that deserializes the data stored in the column. Returns a coderef.

COLUMN INFO

serializer_class => 'YAML'
