[Dbix-class] RFC: DBIx::Class::Schema::Declare

[Sebastian Riedel]

Hi,

After the (not so elegant) DBIx::Class::Sweet here's another approach  
we just discussed in #dbix-class.

"type" defaults to integer(something) and table/class names are  
generated using a logic similar to the good old DBIx::Class::Loader.
"One" in the example below would become table "one" and class  
"MyApp::Model::DBIC::One" by default.

     package MyApp::Model::DBIC;

     use strict;
     use base 'Catalyst::Model::DBIC::Schema';

     use DBIx::Class::Schema::Declare [

         One => {
             foo => { primary => 1 },
             bar => 'text',
         }, { table => 'three' },

         Two => {
             baz => { primary    => 1 },
             qux => { type       => 'text', length => 23, null => 0 },
             one => { belongs_to => 'One' }
         }

     ];

     1;

For prettier YAML dumps, the following alternative syntax is also  
supported.

     ---
     - One
       - bar: text
         foo:
           primary: 1
       - table: three
     - Two
       - baz:
           primary: 1
         one:
           belongs_to: One
         qux:
           length: 23
           null: 0
         type: text
