NAME DBIx::Class::ResultSet::HashRef - Adds syntactic sugar to skip the fancy objects SYNOPSIS # in your resultsource class __PACKAGE__->resultset_class( 'DBIx::Class::ResultSet::HashRef' ); # in your calling code my $rs = $schema->resultset('User')->search( { } )->hashref_rs; while (my $row = $rs->next) { print Dumper $row; } You can chain up every L method to ->hashref_rs: * ->hashref_rs->all (same as ->hashref_array) * ->hashref_rs->first (same as ->hashref_first) DESCRIPTION This is a simple way to allow you to set result_class to DBIx::Class::ResultClass::HashRefInflator to skip the fancy objects. INSTALLATION perl Makefile.PL make make test make install METHODS hashref_rs( ) Sets result_class to DBIx::Class::ResultClass::HashRefInflator and returns the resultset. hashref_array( ) Calls ->hashref_rs->all and returns depending on the calling context an array or an reference to an array. my $rs = $schema->resultset('User')->search( { } )->hashref_array; print Dumper $rs; my @rs = $schema->resultset('User')->search( { } )->hashref_array; print Dumper @rs; hashref_first( ) Returns the first row of the resultset inflated by DBIx::Class::ResultClass::HashRefInflator. my $first_row = $schema->resultset('User')->search( { } )->hashref_first; print Dumper $first_row hashref_pk( ) Returns a hash or reference to hash, depending on the calling context. The keys of the hash are the primary keys of each row returned by "hashref_array( )": { 1 => { 'id' => '1', 'login' => 'root' }, 2 => { 'id' => '2', 'login' => 'toor' }, } Example usage: my $hashref_pk = $schema->resultset('User')->search( { } )->hashref_pk; print Dumper $hashref_pk AUTHOR Johannes Plunien CONTRIBUTORS Robert Bohne COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE Copyright 2008 by Johannes Plunien This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
