NAME

DBD::Sys::Plugin - embed own tables to DBD::Sys

SYNOPSIS

    my $dbh = DBI->connect( "DBI:Sys:", undef, undef, {
	sys_pluginmgr_class => "DBD::Sys::PluginManager", }
    ) or die $DBI:errstr;

DESCRIPTION

The plugin manager provides a basic management of plugins to extend DBD::Sys with additional tables. All plugins are expected to be directly under the DBD::Sys::Plugin namespace:

use Module::Pluggable
  require     => 1,
  search_path => ['DBD::Sys::Plugin'],
  inner       => 0,
  only        => qr/^DBD::Sys::Plugin::\p{Word}+$/;

METHODS

new

Instantiates a new plugin manager and loads all plugins and available tables. During the loading of all that modules, some internal dictionaries are created to find the implementor classes for tables and all valid attributes to tweak the data of the tables.

getTableList

Returns the list of the known table names. It's intended for internal use only, so be aware that the API might change!

getTableDetails

Returns a hash containing the table names and the table implementor classes as value. It's intended for internal use only, so be aware that the API might change!

getTablesAttrs

Returns a $dbh->{sys_valid_attrs} compatible hash map of valid attributes of the loaded tables. It's intended for internal use only, so be aware that the API might change!

getTable

Instantiates the appropriate table class for a given table name. If multiple implementators for the specified table are known, a DBD::Sys::CompositeTable is instantiated which manages the merging of the data delivered by each table and return one, consolidated data set to the calling SQL engine. It's intended for internal use only, so be aware that the API might change!

Free support can be requested via regular CPAN bug-tracking system at http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bugs.html?Dist=DBD-Sys. There is no guaranteed reaction time or solution time, but it's always tried to give accept or reject a reported ticket within a week. It depends on business load. That doesn't mean that ticket via rt aren't handles as soon as possible, that means that soon depends on how much I have to do.
