NAME
DBD::Sponge - Create a DBI statement handle from Perl data
SYNOPSIS
my $sponge = DBI->connect("dbi:Sponge:","","",{ RaiseError => 1 });
my $sth = $sponge->prepare($statement, {
rows => $data,
NAME => $names,
%attr
}
);
DESCRIPTION
DBD::Sponge is useful for making a Perl data structure accessible through a
standard DBI statement handle. This may be useful to DBD module authors who
need to transform data in this way.
METHODS
connect()
my $sponge = DBI->connect("dbi:Sponge:","","",{ RaiseError => 1 });
Here's a sample syntax for creating a database handle for the Sponge driver.
No username and password are needed.
prepare()
my $sth = $sponge->prepare($statement, {
rows => $data,
NAME => $names,
%attr
}
);
- •
-
The $statement here is an arbitrary statement or name you want
to provide as identity of your data. If you're using DBI::Profile
it will appear in the profile data.
Generally it's expected that you are preparing a statement handle
as if a "select" statement happened.
- •
-
$data is a reference to the data you are providing, given as an array of arrays.
- •
-
$names is a reference an array of column names for the $data you are providing.
The number and order should match the number and ordering of the $data columns.
- •
-
%attr is a hash of other standard DBI attributes that you might pass to a prepare statement.
Currently only NAME, TYPE, and PRECISION are supported.
BUGS
Using this module to prepare INSERT-like statements is not currently documented.
