=head1 NAME
DBIx::Class::ResultSet - Represents a query used for fetching a set of results.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
my $users_rs = $schema->resultset('User');
my $registered_users_rs = $schema->resultset('User')->search({ registered => 1 });
my @cds_in_2005 = $schema->resultset('CD')->search({ year => 2005 })->all();
=head1 DESCRIPTION
A ResultSet is an object which stores a set of conditions representing
a query. It is the backbone of DBIx::Class (i.e. the really
important/useful bit).
No SQL is executed on the database when a ResultSet is created, it
just stores all the conditions needed to create the query.
A basic ResultSet representing the data of an entire table is returned
by calling C<resultset> on a L<DBIx::Class::Schema> and passing in a
L<Source|DBIx::Class::Manual::Glossary/Source> name.
my $users_rs = $schema->resultset('User');
A new ResultSet is returned from calling L</search> on an existing
ResultSet. The new one will contain all the conditions of the
original, plus any new conditions added in the C<search> call.
A ResultSet also incorporates an implicit iterator. L</next> and L</reset>
can be used to walk through all the L<DBIx::Class::Row>s the ResultSet
represents.
The query that the ResultSet represents is B<only> executed against
the database when these methods are called:
L</find> L</next> L</all> L</first> L</single> L</count>
=head1 EXAMPLES
=head2 Chaining resultsets
Let's say you've got a query that needs to be run to return some data
to the user. But, you have an authorization system in place that
prevents certain users from seeing certain information. So, you want
to construct the basic query in one method, but add constraints to it in
another.
sub get_data {
my $self = shift;
my $request = $self->get_request; # Get a request object somehow.
my $schema = $self->get_schema; # Get the DBIC schema object somehow.
my $cd_rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search({
title => $request->param('title'),
year => $request->param('year'),
});
$self->apply_security_policy( $cd_rs );
return $cd_rs->all();
}
sub apply_security_policy {
my $self = shift;
my ($rs) = @_;
return $rs->search({
subversive => 0,
});
}
=head3 Resolving conditions and attributes
When a resultset is chained from another resultset, conditions and
attributes with the same keys need resolving.
L</join>, L</prefetch>, L</+select>, L</+as> attributes are merged
into the existing ones from the original resultset.
The L</where>, L</having> attribute, and any search conditions are
merged with an SQL C<AND> to the existing condition from the original
resultset.
All other attributes are overridden by any new ones supplied in the
search attributes.
=head2 Multiple queries
Since a resultset just defines a query, you can do all sorts of
things with it with the same object.
# Don't hit the DB yet.
my $cd_rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search({
title => 'something',
year => 2009,
});
# Each of these hits the DB individually.
my $count = $cd_rs->count;
my $most_recent = $cd_rs->get_column('date_released')->max();
my @records = $cd_rs->all;
And it's not just limited to SELECT statements.
$cd_rs->delete();
This is even cooler:
$cd_rs->create({ artist => 'Fred' });
Which is the same as:
$schema->resultset('CD')->create({
title => 'something',
year => 2009,
artist => 'Fred'
});
See: L</search>, L</count>, L</get_column>, L</all>, L</create>.
=head1 OVERLOADING
If a resultset is used in a numeric context it returns the L</count>.
However, if it is used in a boolean context it is always true. So if
you want to check if a resultset has any results use C<if $rs != 0>.
C<if $rs> will always be true.
=head1 METHODS
=head2 new
=over 4
=item Arguments: $source, \%$attrs
=item Return Value: $rs
=back
The resultset constructor. Takes a source object (usually a
L<DBIx::Class::ResultSourceProxy::Table>) and an attribute hash (see
L</ATTRIBUTES> below). Does not perform any queries -- these are
executed as needed by the other methods.
Generally you won't need to construct a resultset manually. You'll
automatically get one from e.g. a L</search> called in scalar context:
my $rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search({ title => '100th Window' });
IMPORTANT: If called on an object, proxies to new_result instead so
my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->new({ title => 'Spoon' });
will return a CD object, not a ResultSet.

# year = 2005 OR year = 2004
If you need to pass in additional attributes but no additional condition,
call it as C<search(undef, \%attrs)>.
# "SELECT name, artistid FROM $artist_table"
my @all_artists = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search(undef, {

Pass a literal chunk of SQL to be added to the conditional part of the
resultset query.
CAVEAT: C<search_literal> is provided for Class::DBI compatibility and should
only be used in that context. C<search_literal> is a convenience method.
It is equivalent to calling $schema->search(\[]), but if you want to ensure
columns are bound correctly, use C<search>.
Example of how to use C<search> instead of C<search_literal>
my @cds = $cd_rs->search_literal('cdid = ? AND (artist = ? OR artist = ?)', (2, 1, 2));
my @cds = $cd_rs->search(\[ 'cdid = ? AND (artist = ? OR artist = ?)', [ 'cdid', 2 ], [ 'artist', 1 ], [ 'artist', 2 ] ]);
See L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Cookbook/Searching> and

require C<search_literal>.

=head2 find
=over 4
=item Arguments: @values | \%cols, \%attrs?
=item Return Value: $row_object | undef
=back
Finds a row based on its primary key or unique constraint. For example, to find
a row by its primary key:
my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->find(5);
You can also find a row by a specific unique constraint using the C<key>
attribute. For example:
my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->find('Massive Attack', 'Mezzanine', {
key => 'cd_artist_title'
});
Additionally, you can specify the columns explicitly by name:
my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->find(
{
artist => 'Massive Attack',
title => 'Mezzanine',
},
{ key => 'cd_artist_title' }
);
If the C<key> is specified as C<primary>, it searches only on the primary key.
If no C<key> is specified, it searches on all unique constraints defined on the
source for which column data is provided, including the primary key.
If your table does not have a primary key, you B<must> provide a value for the
C<key> attribute matching one of the unique constraints on the source.
In addition to C<key>, L</find> recognizes and applies standard
L<resultset attributes|/ATTRIBUTES> in the same way as L</search> does.
Note: If your query does not return only one row, a warning is generated:
Query returned more than one row
See also L</find_or_create> and L</update_or_create>. For information on how to
declare unique constraints, see

Inflates the first result without creating a cursor if the resultset has

L</search>.
While this method can take an optional search condition (just like L</search>)
being a fast-code-path it does not recognize search attributes. If you need to
add extra joins or similar, call L</search> and then chain-call L</single> on the
L<DBIx::Class::ResultSet> returned.

As of 0.08100, this method enforces the assumption that the preceding

In this case, you should be using L</next> or L</find> instead, or if you really
know what you are doing, use the L</rows> attribute to explicitly limit the size
of the resultset.
This method will also throw an exception if it is called on a resultset prefetching

=head2 populate
=over 4
=item Arguments: \@data;
=back
Accepts either an arrayref of hashrefs or alternatively an arrayref of arrayrefs.
For the arrayref of hashrefs style each hashref should be a structure suitable
forsubmitting to a $resultset->create(...) method.
In void context, C<insert_bulk> in L<DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI> is used
to insert the data, as this is a faster method.
Otherwise, each set of data is inserted into the database using
L<DBIx::Class::ResultSet/create>, and the resulting objects are
accumulated into an array. The array itself, or an array reference
is returned depending on scalar or list context.
Example: Assuming an Artist Class that has many CDs Classes relating:
my $Artist_rs = $schema->resultset("Artist");
## Void Context Example
$Artist_rs->populate([
{ artistid => 4, name => 'Manufactured Crap', cds => [
{ title => 'My First CD', year => 2006 },
{ title => 'Yet More Tweeny-Pop crap', year => 2007 },
],
},
{ artistid => 5, name => 'Angsty-Whiny Girl', cds => [
{ title => 'My parents sold me to a record company', year => 2005 },
{ title => 'Why Am I So Ugly?', year => 2006 },
{ title => 'I Got Surgery and am now Popular', year => 2007 }
],
},
]);
## Array Context Example
my ($ArtistOne, $ArtistTwo, $ArtistThree) = $Artist_rs->populate([
{ name => "Artist One"},
{ name => "Artist Two"},
{ name => "Artist Three", cds=> [
{ title => "First CD", year => 2007},
{ title => "Second CD", year => 2008},
]}
]);
print $ArtistOne->name; ## response is 'Artist One'
print $ArtistThree->cds->count ## reponse is '2'
For the arrayref of arrayrefs style, the first element should be a list of the
fieldsnames to which the remaining elements are rows being inserted. For
example:
$Arstist_rs->populate([
[qw/artistid name/],
[100, 'A Formally Unknown Singer'],
[101, 'A singer that jumped the shark two albums ago'],
[102, 'An actually cool singer'],
]);
Please note an important effect on your data when choosing between void and
wantarray context. Since void context goes straight to C<insert_bulk> in
L<DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI> this will skip any component that is overriding
C<insert>. So if you are using something like L<DBIx-Class-UUIDColumns> to
create primary keys for you, you will find that your PKs are empty. In this
case you will have to use the wantarray context in order to create those
values.

key, or a unique constraint. If none exists, instantiate a new result
object and return it. The object will not be saved into your storage

You most likely want this method when looking for existing rows using
a unique constraint that is not the primary key, or looking for
related rows.
If you want objects to be saved immediately, use L</find_or_create>
instead.
B<Note>: Take care when using C<find_or_new> with a table having
columns with default values that you intend to be automatically
supplied by the database (e.g. an auto_increment primary key column).

=head2 create
=over 4
=item Arguments: \%vals
=item Return Value: a L<DBIx::Class::Row> $object
=back
Attempt to create a single new row or a row with multiple related rows
in the table represented by the resultset (and related tables). This
will not check for duplicate rows before inserting, use
L</find_or_create> to do that.
To create one row for this resultset, pass a hashref of key/value
pairs representing the columns of the table and the values you wish to
store. If the appropriate relationships are set up, foreign key fields
can also be passed an object representing the foreign row, and the
value will be set to its primary key.
To create related objects, pass a hashref of related-object column values
B<keyed on the relationship name>. If the relationship is of type C<multi>
(L<DBIx::Class::Relationship/has_many>) - pass an arrayref of hashrefs.
The process will correctly identify columns holding foreign keys, and will
transparently populate them from the keys of the corresponding relation.
This can be applied recursively, and will work correctly for a structure
with an arbitrary depth and width, as long as the relationships actually
exists and the correct column data has been supplied.
Instead of hashrefs of plain related data (key/value pairs), you may
also pass new or inserted objects. New objects (not inserted yet, see
L</new>), will be inserted into their appropriate tables.
Effectively a shortcut for C<< ->new_result(\%vals)->insert >>.
Example of creating a new row.
$person_rs->create({
name=>"Some Person",
email=>"somebody@someplace.com"
});
Example of creating a new row and also creating rows in a related C<has_many>
or C<has_one> resultset. Note Arrayref.

When subclassing ResultSet never attempt to override this method. Since
it is a simple shortcut for C<< $self->new_result($attrs)->insert >>, a
lot of the internals simply never call it, so your override will be
bypassed more often than not. Override either L<new|DBIx::Class::Row/new>
or L<insert|DBIx::Class::Row/insert> depending on how early in the
L</create> process you need to intervene.

$cd->cd_to_producer->find_or_create({ producer => $producer },
{ key => 'primary' });
Tries to find a record based on its primary key or unique constraints; if none
is found, creates one and returns that instead.
my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->find_or_create({
cdid => 5,
artist => 'Massive Attack',
title => 'Mezzanine',
year => 2005,
});
Also takes an optional C<key> attribute, to search by a specific key or unique
constraint. For example:
my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->find_or_create(
{
artist => 'Massive Attack',
title => 'Mezzanine',
},
{ key => 'cd_artist_title' }
);
B<Note>: Because find_or_create() reads from the database and then
possibly inserts based on the result, this method is subject to a race
condition. Another process could create a record in the table after
the find has completed and before the create has started. To avoid
this problem, use find_or_create() inside a transaction.
B<Note>: Take care when using C<find_or_create> with a table having
columns with default values that you intend to be automatically
supplied by the database (e.g. an auto_increment primary key column).
In normal usage, the value of such columns should NOT be included at
all in the call to C<find_or_create>, even when set to C<undef>.
See also L</find> and L</update_or_create>. For information on how to declare
unique constraints, see L<DBIx::Class::ResultSource/add_unique_constraint>.

First, searches for an existing row matching one of the unique constraints
(including the primary key) on the source of this resultset. If a row is
found, updates it with the other given column values. Otherwise, creates a new
row.
Takes an optional C<key> attribute to search on a specific unique constraint.
For example:
# In your application
my $cd = $schema->resultset('CD')->update_or_create(
{
artist => 'Massive Attack',
title => 'Mezzanine',

},
{ key => 'cd_artist_title' }
);
$cd->cd_to_producer->update_or_create({
producer => $producer,
name => 'harry',
}, {
key => 'primary,
});
If no C<key> is specified, it searches on all unique constraints defined on the
source, including the primary key.
If the C<key> is specified as C<primary>, it searches only on the primary key.

=back
Returns the current table alias for the result source this resultset is built
on, that will be used in the SQL query. Usually it is C<me>.
Currently the source alias that refers to the result set returned by a
L</search>/L</find> family method depends on how you got to the resultset: it's
C<me> by default, but eg. L</search_related> aliases it to the related result
source name (and keeps C<me> referring to the original result set). The long
term goal is to make L<DBIx::Class> always alias the current resultset as C<me>
(and make this method unnecessary).
Thus it's currently necessary to use this method in predefined queries (see
L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Cookbook/Predefined searches>) when referring to the
source alias of the current result set:
# in a result set class
sub modified_by {
my ($self, $user) = @_;
my $me = $self->current_source_alias;
return $self->search(
"$me.modified" => $user->id,

Act as a barrier to SQL symbols. The resultset provided will be made into a
"virtual view" by including it as a subquery within the from clause. From this
point on, any joined tables are inaccessible to ->search on the resultset (as if
it were simply where-filtered without joins). For example:
my $rs = $schema->resultset('Bar')->search({'x.name' => 'abc'},{ join => 'x' });
# 'x' now pollutes the query namespace
# So the following works as expected
my $ok_rs = $rs->search({'x.other' => 1});
# But this doesn't: instead of finding a 'Bar' related to two x rows (abc and
# def) we look for one row with contradictory terms and join in another table
# (aliased 'x_2') which we never use
my $broken_rs = $rs->search({'x.name' => 'def'});
my $rs2 = $rs->as_subselect_rs;
# doesn't work - 'x' is no longer accessible in $rs2, having been sealed away
my $not_joined_rs = $rs2->search({'x.other' => 1});
# works as expected: finds a 'table' row related to two x rows (abc and def)
my $correctly_joined_rs = $rs2->search({'x.name' => 'def'});
Another example of when one might use this would be to select a subset of
columns in a group by clause:
my $rs = $schema->resultset('Bar')->search(undef, {
group_by => [qw{ id foo_id baz_id }],
})->as_subselect_rs->search(undef, {
columns => [qw{ id foo_id }]
});
In the above example normally columns would have to be equal to the group by,
but because we isolated the group by into a subselect the above works.

Which column(s) to order the results by.
[The full list of suitable values is documented in
L<SQL::Abstract/"ORDER BY CLAUSES">; the following is a summary of
common options.]
If a single column name, or an arrayref of names is supplied, the
argument is passed through directly to SQL. The hashref syntax allows
for connection-agnostic specification of ordering direction:
For descending order:
order_by => { -desc => [qw/col1 col2 col3/] }
For explicit ascending order:
order_by => { -asc => 'col' }
The old scalarref syntax (i.e. order_by => \'year DESC') is still
supported, although you are strongly encouraged to use the hashref
syntax as outlined above.
=head2 columns
=over 4
=item Value: \@columns
=back
Shortcut to request a particular set of columns to be retrieved. Each
column spec may be a string (a table column name), or a hash (in which
case the key is the C<as> value, and the value is used as the C<select>
expression). Adds C<me.> onto the start of any column without a C<.> in
it and sets C<select> from that, then auto-populates C<as> from
C<select> as normal. (You may also use the C<cols> attribute, as in
earlier versions of DBIC.)
=head2 +columns
=over 4
=item Value: \@columns
=back
Indicates additional columns to be selected from storage. Works the same
as L</columns> but adds columns to the selection. (You may also use the
C<include_columns> attribute, as in earlier versions of DBIC). For
example:-
$schema->resultset('CD')->search(undef, {
'+columns' => ['artist.name'],
join => ['artist']
});
would return all CDs and include a 'name' column to the information
passed to object inflation. Note that the 'artist' is the name of the
column (or relationship) accessor, and 'name' is the name of the column
accessor in the related table.
=head2 include_columns
=over 4
=item Value: \@columns
=back
Deprecated. Acts as a synonym for L</+columns> for backward compatibility.
=head2 select
=over 4
=item Value: \@select_columns
=back
Indicates which columns should be selected from the storage. You can use
column names, or in the case of RDBMS back ends, function or stored procedure
names:
$rs = $schema->resultset('Employee')->search(undef, {
select => [
'name',
{ count => 'employeeid' },
{ sum => 'salary' }
]
});
When you use function/stored procedure names and do not supply an C<as>
attribute, the column names returned are storage-dependent. E.g. MySQL would
return a column named C<count(employeeid)> in the above example.
B<NOTE:> You will almost always need a corresponding 'as' entry when you use
'select'.
=head2 +select
=over 4
Indicates additional columns to be selected from storage. Works the same as
L</select> but adds columns to the selection.
=back
=head2 +as
=over 4
Indicates additional column names for those added via L</+select>. See L</as>.
=back
=head2 as
=over 4
=item Value: \@inflation_names
=back
Indicates column names for object inflation. That is, C<as>
indicates the name that the column can be accessed as via the
C<get_column> method (or via the object accessor, B<if one already
exists>). It has nothing to do with the SQL code C<SELECT foo AS bar>.
The C<as> attribute is used in conjunction with C<select>,
usually when C<select> contains one or more function or stored
procedure names:
$rs = $schema->resultset('Employee')->search(undef, {
select => [
'name',
{ count => 'employeeid' }
],
as => ['name', 'employee_count'],
});
my $employee = $rs->first(); # get the first Employee
If the object against which the search is performed already has an accessor
matching a column name specified in C<as>, the value can be retrieved using
the accessor as normal:
my $name = $employee->name();
If on the other hand an accessor does not exist in the object, you need to
use C<get_column> instead:
my $employee_count = $employee->get_column('employee_count');
You can create your own accessors if required - see
L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Cookbook> for details.
Please note: This will NOT insert an C<AS employee_count> into the SQL
statement produced, it is used for internal access only. Thus
attempting to use the accessor in an C<order_by> clause or similar
will fail miserably.
To get around this limitation, you can supply literal SQL to your
C<select> attribute that contains the C<AS alias> text, e.g.
select => [\'myfield AS alias']
=head2 join
=over 4
=item Value: ($rel_name | \@rel_names | \%rel_names)
=back
Contains a list of relationships that should be joined for this query. For
example:
# Get CDs by Nine Inch Nails
my $rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search(
{ 'artist.name' => 'Nine Inch Nails' },
{ join => 'artist' }
);
Can also contain a hash reference to refer to the other relation's relations.
For example:
package MyApp::Schema::Track;
use base qw/DBIx::Class/;
__PACKAGE__->table('track');
__PACKAGE__->add_columns(qw/trackid cd position title/);
__PACKAGE__->set_primary_key('trackid');
__PACKAGE__->belongs_to(cd => 'MyApp::Schema::CD');
1;
# In your application
my $rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search(
{ 'track.title' => 'Teardrop' },
{
join => { cd => 'track' },
order_by => 'artist.name',
}
);
You need to use the relationship (not the table) name in conditions,
because they are aliased as such. The current table is aliased as "me", so
you need to use me.column_name in order to avoid ambiguity. For example:
# Get CDs from 1984 with a 'Foo' track
my $rs = $schema->resultset('CD')->search(
{
'me.year' => 1984,
'tracks.name' => 'Foo'
},
{ join => 'tracks' }
);
If the same join is supplied twice, it will be aliased to <rel>_2 (and
similarly for a third time). For e.g.
my $rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search({
'cds.title' => 'Down to Earth',
'cds_2.title' => 'Popular',
}, {
join => [ qw/cds cds/ ],
});
will return a set of all artists that have both a cd with title 'Down
to Earth' and a cd with title 'Popular'.
If you want to fetch related objects from other tables as well, see C<prefetch>
below.
For more help on using joins with search, see L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Joining>.
=head2 prefetch
=over 4
=item Value: ($rel_name | \@rel_names | \%rel_names)
=back
Contains one or more relationships that should be fetched along with
the main query (when they are accessed afterwards the data will
already be available, without extra queries to the database). This is
useful for when you know you will need the related objects, because it
saves at least one query:
my $rs = $schema->resultset('Tag')->search(
undef,
{
prefetch => {
cd => 'artist'
}
}
);
The initial search results in SQL like the following:
SELECT tag.*, cd.*, artist.* FROM tag
JOIN cd ON tag.cd = cd.cdid
JOIN artist ON cd.artist = artist.artistid
L<DBIx::Class> has no need to go back to the database when we access the
C<cd> or C<artist> relationships, which saves us two SQL statements in this
case.
Simple prefetches will be joined automatically, so there is no need
for a C<join> attribute in the above search.
C<prefetch> can be used with the following relationship types: C<belongs_to>,
C<has_one> (or if you're using C<add_relationship>, any relationship declared
with an accessor type of 'single' or 'filter'). A more complex example that
prefetches an artists cds, the tracks on those cds, and the tags associated
with that artist is given below (assuming many-to-many from artists to tags):
my $rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search(
undef,
{
prefetch => [
{ cds => 'tracks' },
{ artist_tags => 'tags' }
]
}
);
B<NOTE:> If you specify a C<prefetch> attribute, the C<join> and C<select>
attributes will be ignored.
B<CAVEATs>: Prefetch does a lot of deep magic. As such, it may not behave
exactly as you might expect.
=over 4
=item *
Prefetch uses the L</cache> to populate the prefetched relationships. This
may or may not be what you want.
=item *
If you specify a condition on a prefetched relationship, ONLY those
rows that match the prefetched condition will be fetched into that relationship.
This means that adding prefetch to a search() B<may alter> what is returned by
traversing a relationship. So, if you have C<< Artist->has_many(CDs) >> and you do
my $artist_rs = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search({
'cds.year' => 2008,
}, {
join => 'cds',
});
my $count = $artist_rs->first->cds->count;
my $artist_rs_prefetch = $artist_rs->search( {}, { prefetch => 'cds' } );
my $prefetch_count = $artist_rs_prefetch->first->cds->count;
cmp_ok( $count, '==', $prefetch_count, "Counts should be the same" );
that cmp_ok() may or may not pass depending on the datasets involved. This
behavior may or may not survive the 0.09 transition.
=back
=head2 page
=over 4
=item Value: $page
=back
Makes the resultset paged and specifies the page to retrieve. Effectively
identical to creating a non-pages resultset and then calling ->page($page)
on it.
If L<rows> attribute is not specified it defaults to 10 rows per page.
When you have a paged resultset, L</count> will only return the number
of rows in the page. To get the total, use the L</pager> and call
C<total_entries> on it.
=head2 rows
=over 4
=item Value: $rows
=back
Specifies the maximum number of rows for direct retrieval or the number of
rows per page if the page attribute or method is used.
=head2 offset
=over 4
=item Value: $offset
=back
Specifies the (zero-based) row number for the first row to be returned, or the
of the first row of the first page if paging is used.
=head2 group_by
=over 4
=item Value: \@columns
=back
A arrayref of columns to group by. Can include columns of joined tables.
group_by => [qw/ column1 column2 ... /]
=head2 having
=over 4
=item Value: $condition
=back
HAVING is a select statement attribute that is applied between GROUP BY and
ORDER BY. It is applied to the after the grouping calculations have been
done.
having => { 'count(employee)' => { '>=', 100 } }
=head2 distinct
=over 4
=item Value: (0 | 1)
=back
Set to 1 to group by all columns. If the resultset already has a group_by
attribute, this setting is ignored and an appropriate warning is issued.
=head2 where
=over 4
Adds to the WHERE clause.
# only return rows WHERE deleted IS NULL for all searches
__PACKAGE__->resultset_attributes({ where => { deleted => undef } }); )
Can be overridden by passing C<< { where => undef } >> as an attribute
to a resultset.
=back
=head2 cache
Set to 1 to cache search results. This prevents extra SQL queries if you
revisit rows in your ResultSet:
my $resultset = $schema->resultset('Artist')->search( undef, { cache => 1 } );
while( my $artist = $resultset->next ) {
... do stuff ...
}
$rs->first; # without cache, this would issue a query
By default, searches are not cached.
For more examples of using these attributes, see
L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Cookbook>.
=head2 for
=over 4
=item Value: ( 'update' | 'shared' )
=back
Set to 'update' for a SELECT ... FOR UPDATE or 'shared' for a SELECT
... FOR SHARED.
