DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Manual::UpgradingFromV4(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Manual::UpgradingFromV4(3)

DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Manual::UpgradingFromV4 - Important Information Related to Upgrading from Version 0.04006

  • add_column

    The new Loader detects much more information about columns and sets flags like "is_auto_increment" that it didn't set before.

  • RelBuilder

    The new RelBuilder will give you nicer accessor names for relationships, so you will no longer have conflicts between a foreign key column and the relationship accessor itself (if the FK is named "_id".)

    It will also more correctly infer the relationship type, e.g. some relationships that were previously detected as a "has_many" will now be a "might_have" (when it detects a unique constraint on the foreign key column.)

    Also "cascade_delete" and "cascade_copy" are turned off for by default for "has_many" and "might_have" relationships, while "belongs_to" relationships are created with "on_delete => 'CASCADE'" and "on_update => 'CASCADE'" by default. This is overridable via relationship_attrs.

  • moniker_map

    Table names are now singularized when determining the "Result" class names. So the table "user_roles" would have become "UserRoles" in 0.04006 but now becomes "UserRole" instead.

  • use_namespaces

    Now defaults to on. See "use_namespaces" in DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Base and "load_namespaces" in DBIx::Class::Schema.

  • Support for more databases

    We now support Microsoft SQL Server and Sybase, and there are also many improvements to the other backends.

In backward compatibility mode, the Loader will use the old relationship names and types, will not singularize monikers for tables, and "use_namespaces" will be off.

To control this behavior see "naming" in DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Base and "use_namespaces" in DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Base.

When reading a "Schema.pm" from a static schema generated with an 0.04 version of Loader, backward compatibility mode will default to on, unless overridden with the "naming" and/or "use_namespaces" attributes.

Dynamic schemas will always by default use 0.04006 mode and have "use_namespaces" off.

To upgrade a dynamic schema, set the "naming" and "use_namespaces" attributes (which is proxied to the loader) in your "Schema.pm":

    __PACKAGE__->naming('current');
    __PACKAGE__->use_namespaces(1);

See "AUTHORS" in DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader.
