NAME
Data::Hive::Store - a backend storage driver for Data::Hive
VERSION
version 1.010
DESCRIPTION
Data::Hive::Store is a generic interface to a backend store for Data::Hive.
METHODS
All methods are passed at least a 'path' (arrayref of namespace pieces). Store classes exist to operate on the entities found at named paths.
get
print $store->get(\@path, \%opt);
Return the resource represented by the given path.
set
$store->set(\@path, $value, \%opt);
Analogous to get
.
name
print $store->name(\@path, \%opt);
Return a store-specific name for the given path. This is primarily useful for stores that may be accessed independently of the hive.
exists
if ($store->exists(\@path, \%opt)) { ... }
Returns true if the given path exists in the store.
delete
$store->delete(\@path, \%opt);
Delete the given path from the store. Return the previous value, if any.
keys
my @keys = $store->keys(\@path, \%opt);
This returns a list of next-level path elements that lead toward existing values. For more information on the expected behavior, see the KEYS method in Data::Hive.
