NAME

Class::DBI::Lite - Lightweight ORM for Perl

EXPERIMENTAL STATUS

**NOTE**: This module is still under development. It is likely to change in dramatic ways without any warning.

As is, this module should not (yet) be used in a production environment until after v1.000.

SYNOPSIS

package My::Model;

use base 'Class::DBI::Lite';

__PACKAGE__->connection(
  $Config->settings->dsn,
  $Config->settings->username,
  $Config->settings->password,
);

Then, elsewhere...

# Change the connection:
My::Model->connection( @dsn );

my $users = My::User->retrieve_all;

My::Model->connection( @other_dsn );
my $other_users = My::User->retrieve_all;

DESCRIPTION

This module is intended to serve as a drop-in replacement for the venerable Class::DBI when many features of Class::DBI are simply not needed, or when Ima::DBI's quirks are not wanted.
