Random Thoughts from Castaway

SQLT and DBIx::Class Adventures..

written by Castaway

Anything is progressing.. but I got briefly sidetracked ("yak shaved"?) by some DBIx::Class stuff...

As a result we now have SQL::Translator::Producer::DBIx::Class::File and SQL::Translator::Parser::DBIx::Class .

Whats all this in aid of? Something to do with versioning of DBIx::Class Schemas. The Producer, which I wrote second, was actually to aid my laziness.. Since I wanted to finally convert my DBIx::Class::DB based setup to a DBIx::Class::Schema based one, which is now the reccommended WTDI.

And why that? Well more sidetracking of course (not that it didn't need doing anyway).. A friend would like a media database thats usable from the command line, and I thought well: it sounds like that would fit in Anything, but before I fiddle with command-line clients for it, I should probably switch over to Schemas..

And so it goes on.. ;)

I'm also now installing Xapian , as a preclude to adding search functionality. In fact it's finished installing as I write.. Once in a while, something "just works" (viz: downloading a srpm, building rpms, installing them, installing CPAN module .. )

So, on with the Schema-ing..
