Is there anyway in DBIx::Class to set in the table class object the
fields you want the results to be sorted by by default. eg
__PACKAGE__->table('foo');
__PACKAGE__->add_columns(qw/foo_id foo bar/);
__PACKAGE__->sort_column('bar');
Or do you have to manually set the order_by field statement everywhere
you try and retrieve these items?
Also, is there an ability to have named groups of columns similar to
Class::DBI? eg
__PACKAGE__->add_column_group('menu'=>qw/foo bar/);
This would be useful for a default handler to display a menu of items. I
have actually implemented this myself but I don't think I did it in a
very smart or efficient way.
Cheers,
Brett Gardner
