INTERFACE

Methods

recent

   # Get the values for a "Recent Files" menu
   my @files = Padre::DB::History->recent('files', 10);
 
 

The "recent" method is non-ORLite method that is used to retrieve the most recent distinct values for a particular history category.

It takes a compulsory parameter of the history type to retrieve, and an optional positive integer for the maximum number of distinct values to retrieve (10 by default).

Returns a list of zero or more 'name' values in array context.

Returns a reference to an array of zero or more 'name' values in scalar context.

Throws an exception if the history query fails.

previous

   # Get the single most recent file
   my $file = Padre::DB::History->previous('files');
 
 

The "previous" method is the single-value form of the "recent" method.

It takes a compulsory parameter of the history type to retrieve.

Returns the single most recent value as a string.

Returns "undef" if there are no values.

Throws an exception if the history query fails.

select

   # Get all objects in list context
   my @list = Padre::DB::History->select;
 
   # Get a subset of objects in scalar context
   my $array_ref = Padre::DB::History->select(
       'where id > ? order by id',
       1000,
   );
 
 

The "select" method executes a typical SQL "SELECT" query on the history table.

It takes an optional argument of a SQL phrase to be added after the "FROM history" section of the query, followed by variables to be bound to the placeholders in the SQL phrase. Any SQL that is compatible with SQLite can be used in the parameter.

Returns a list of Padre::DB::History objects when called in list context, or a reference to an ARRAY of Padre::DB::History objects when called in scalar context.

Throws an exception on error, typically directly from the DBI layer.

count

   # How many objects are in the table
   my $rows = Padre::DB::History->count;
 
   # How many objects
   my $small = Padre::DB::History->count(
       'where id > ?',
       1000,
   );
 
 

The "count" method executes a "SELECT COUNT(*)" query on the history table.

It takes an optional argument of a SQL phrase to be added after the "FROM history" section of the query, followed by variables to be bound to the placeholders in the SQL phrase. Any SQL that is compatible with SQLite can be used in the parameter.

Returns the number of objects that match the condition.

Throws an exception on error, typically directly from the DBI layer.

new

TO BE COMPLETED

The "new" constructor is used to create a new abstract object that is not (yet) written to the database.

Returns a new Padre::DB::History object.

create

   my $object = Padre::DB::History->create(
 
       id => 'value',
 
       type => 'value',
 
       name => 'value',
 
   );
 
 

The "create" constructor is a one-step combination of "new" and "insert" that takes the column parameters, creates a new Padre::DB::History object, inserts the appropriate row into the history table, and then returns the object.

If the primary key column "id" is not provided to the constructor (or it is false) the object returned will have "id" set to the new unique identifier.

Returns a new history object, or throws an exception on error, typically from the DBI layer.

insert

   $object->insert;
 
 

The "insert" method commits a new object (created with the "new" method) into the database.

If a the primary key column "id" is not provided to the constructor (or it is false) the object returned will have "id" set to the new unique identifier.

Returns the object itself as a convenience, or throws an exception on error, typically from the DBI layer.

delete

   # Delete a single instantiated object
   $object->delete;
 
   # Delete multiple rows from the history table
   Padre::DB::History->delete('where id > ?', 1000);
 
 

The "delete" method can be used in a class form and an instance form.

When used on an existing Padre::DB::History instance, the "delete" method removes that specific instance from the "history", leaving the object intact for you to deal with post-delete actions as you wish.

When used as a class method, it takes a compulsory argument of a SQL phrase to be added after the "DELETE FROM history" section of the query, followed by variables to be bound to the placeholders in the SQL phrase. Any SQL that is compatible with SQLite can be used in the parameter.

Returns true on success or throws an exception on error, or if you attempt to call delete without a SQL condition phrase.

truncate

   # Delete all records in the history table
   Padre::DB::History->truncate;
 
 

To prevent the common and extremely dangerous error case where deletion is called accidentally without providing a condition, the use of the "delete" method without a specific condition is forbidden.

Instead, the distinct method "truncate" is provided to delete all records in a table with specific intent.

Returns true, or throws an exception on error.

Accessors

id

   if ( $object->id ) {
       print "Object has been inserted\n";
   } else {
       print "Object has not been inserted\n";
   }
 
 

Returns true, or throws an exception on error.

The history table was originally created with the following SQL command.

   CREATE TABLE history (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, type VARCHAR(100), name VARCHAR(100))
